Drag reduction efficiency of solid particles in pipelines of two phase flow

Pipe is a common channel to transport fluid from one location to another. Skin frictions formed by turbulent flow in pipe become the main aspect for researchers to explore the field of fluid mechanics. Frictional drag formed in pipelines transporting water can be reduced spectacularly by adding minu...
