DOI: 10.1016/j.expthermflusci.2018.02.001
Abstract: Abstract The performance of riblet surfaces after applying a superhydrophobic coating (SHC) is evaluated by planar particle image velocimetry (PIV) measurement at riblet tip spacing of s+ = 8.6, 17.3, and 34.6 (normalized using wall unit). The… read more here.
