Drag enhancement characteristics and mechanism of the seam plate formed by uniform micro gap arrangement of multiple micro cylinders

Abstract This study investigates the hydrodynamic benefits of the swimming hairs on the hind legs of diving beetles, characterized by diameters of 10–21 μm and gaps of 6–23 μm. Using the quasi-DNS method provided by OpenFoam platform, we simulated the process of water flowing through these microgaps...
