Role of Bio-Based Polymers on Improving Turbulent Flow Characteristics: Materials and Application

The remarkable ability of polymeric additives to reduce the level of frictional drag significantly in turbulent flow, even under extremely low dilutions, is known as turbulent drag-reduction behavior. Several bio-polymers have been assessed as promising drag-reducing agents for the potential replace...
