Frictionless flow in channels

Frictionless flow in channels

This project explores seven surface groove designs with the aim of achieving friction reduction in fluid flows. An experiment was designed and fabricated to substantiate theoretical analysis as well as to observe fluid behaviour in channel flow. The pressure difference (ΔP) of water flow across each...
