Abstract:In the present work, the particle image velocimetry (PIV) technique was used to measure the velocity components in the direction normal and tangent to the wall to obtain average velocity fields, wall shear stresses, friction velocity, drag reduction and average deformation fields were obtained by adding bubbles (injected by electrolysis), polymer (WSR-301 polyox) and surfactant (cationic) and their bubble-polymer, bubble-surfactant and polymer-surfactant combinations at concentrations of 164 and 272 ppm in a w… Show more
