Abstract: Irrigation based on non‐compensated drip emitters is extremely common in agriculture, especially due to its simplicity, robustness and competitive cost. Nevertheless, because of friction losses in the pipe, together with irregular terrain, these systems often… read more here.

DOI: 10.3390/polym11101659
Abstract: Viscoelasticity drag-reducing flow by polymer solution can reduce pumping energy of pipe flow significantly. One of the simulation manners is direct numerical simulation (DNS). However, the computational time is too long to accept in engineering.… read more here.
