Miniaturized rotating disc rheometer test for rapid screening of drag reducing marine coatings

Frictional drag from the submerged hull surface of a ship is a major component of the resistance experienced when moving through water. Techniques for measuring frictional drag on test surfaces include towing tanks, flow tunnels and rotating discs. These large-scale methods present practical difficu...
