Shark Skin—An Inspiration for the Development of a Novel and Simple Biomimetic Turbulent Drag Reduction Topology
In this study, a novel but simple biomimetic turbulent drag reduction topology is proposed, inspired by the special structure of shark skin. Two effective, shark skin-inspired, ribletted surfaces were designed, their topologies were optimized, and their excellent drag reduction performances were verified by large eddy simulation. The designed riblets showed higher turbulent drag reduction behavior, e.g., 21.45% at Re = 40,459, compared with other experimental and simulated reports. The effects of the riblets on the behavior of the fluid flow in pipes are discussed, as well as the mechanisms of fluid drag in turbulent flow and riblet drag reduction. Riblets of various dimensions were analyzed and the nature of fluid flow over the effective shark skin surface is illustrated. By setting up the effective ribletted surface on structure’s surface, the shark skin-inspired, biomimetic, ribletted surface effectively reduced friction resistance without external energy support. This method is therefore regarded as the most promising drag reduction technique.
