Flow Simulation of Various Riblet Shapes and a Uniform Model for Boundary Layer

Various riblet shapes are simulated through the computational fluid dynamics method for the elucidation of riblet effects on turbulent boundary layers and skin friction reduction. For the different shapes, seven typical riblet models are investigated by using renormalization group k-epsilon turbulen...
