Journal ArticleDOI
Friction Drag Reduction of External Flows with Bubble and Gas Injection
TL;DR: In this article, the use of partial and supercavities for drag reduction of axisymmetric objects moving within a liquid is reviewed, and the current applications of these techniques to underwater vehicles and surface ships are discussed.
Journal ArticleDOI
Bubbly shock propagation as a mechanism for sheet-to-cloud transition of partial cavities
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors used high-speed visualization and X-ray densitometry measurements to examine the cavity dynamics, including the time-resolved void-fraction fields within the cavity.
Journal ArticleDOI
Bubble friction drag reduction in a high-Reynolds-number flat-plate turbulent boundary layer
TL;DR: In this article, the authors showed that at the lowest test speed and highest air injection rate, buoyancy pushed the air bubbles to the plate surface where they coalesced to form a nearly continuous gas film that persisted to the end of the plate with near-100% skin-friction drag reduction.
Journal ArticleDOI
Partial cavity flows. Part 1. Cavities forming on models without spanwise variation
TL;DR: Partial cavities that formed on the vertices of two-dimensional wedges and on the leading edge of stationary hydrofoils were examined experimentally as mentioned in this paper, and they exhibited a laminar flow reattachment.
Journal ArticleDOI
Bubble-induced skin-friction drag reduction and the abrupt transition to air-layer drag reduction
TL;DR: In this article, a set of experiments has been conducted at the US Navy's William B. Morgan Large Cavitation Channel (LCC) to investigate the phenomena of skin-friction drag reduction in a turbulent boundary layer (TBL) at large scales and high Reynolds numbers.
