Turbulent Bubbly Channel Flow Investigated by Ultrasound Velocity Profiler

Ultrasound velocity profiler (UVP) is applied to measurements of a horizontal turbulent bubbly channel flow to ascertain the mechanism of bubble-induced frictional drag reduction. Typical parameter regimes of the target flow are Re number of 0.6-6.0 x104, void fraction of 0-3%, and bubble diameter o...
