Book An Experimental Study of Turbulent Skin Friction Reduction in Supersonic Flow Using a Microblowing Technique

Download or read book An Experimental Study of Turbulent Skin Friction Reduction in Supersonic Flow Using a Microblowing Technique written by National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) and published by Createspace Independent Publishing Platform. This book was released on 2018-06-15 with total page 26 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A new turbulent skin friction reduction technology, called the microblowing technique has been tested in supersonic flow (Mach number of 1.9) on specially designed porous plates with microholes. The skin friction was measured directly by a force balance and the boundary layer development was measured by a total pressure rake at the tailing edge of a test plate. The free stream Reynolds number was 1.0(10 exp 6) per meter. The turbulent skin friction coefficient ratios (C(sub f)/C(sub f0)) of seven porous plates are given in this report. Test results showed that the microblowing technique could reduce the turbulent skin friction in supersonic flow (up to 90 percent below a solid flat plate value, which was even greater than in subsonic flow).

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: After the devastating dust storms that swept across Northern China in 2000, there has been increased interest in studying experiences with dust storm mitigation, prevention, forecasting and control. This book contains a range of essays and case studies written by a group of Chinese and international experts with experience in the field of dryland rehabilitation and ecological restoration of desertified lands at the global and local level. Issues discussed include: the experiences in Canada and the US during the Dust Bowl era of the 1930's; the desertification of areas on the continents of Australia and Africa; case studies from Asia which look at the consequences of the large-scale implementation of policies and land-use practices; and methods for the forecasting, mitigation and prevention of dust storms.
