Drag Reduction Effect and Wettability of Surface with Dual-Length Micro-Pillars

We studied the drag reduction effect and wettability of surfaces with microscale cylindrical pillars. As the ideal surface that satisfies these two antinomy conditions, improvement of drag reduction effect and maintenance of air layer, we propose the microstructured surface with dual length pillars....
