Abstract
Drag reduction capabilities of compliant coatings has long been of a verification issue in experimental fluid mechanics. In this paper, an optimal flow velocity range leading to maximum interaction between coatings and the flow is predicted based on viscoelastic material properties coating. The prediction is performed using a semi-empirical model, which exhibit quite promising results in preliminary tests. Results on turbulent boundary layer in a wind tunnel and a water tunnel and comparison of the experimentally estimated skin friction modifications with the predictions are given.
