Dimples for Skin-Friction Drag Reduction: Status and Perspectives
Dimples are small concavities imprinted on a flat surface, known to affect heat transfer and also flow separation and aerodynamic drag on bluff bodies when acting as a standard roughness. Recently, dimples have been proposed as a roughness pattern that is capable of reducing the turbulent drag of a...
