Drag Reduction Through Air-Trapping Discrete Grooves in Underwater Applications
Vehicles travelling underwater experience drag and the frictional drag costs 60% of the total energy consumption. Using trapped air serving as a lubricant is a promising way to reduce drag. The trapped air plays a significant role in drag reduction, and most failures in drag reduction are related to...
