Abstract The film effectiveness was investigated on a grooved surface with the injection orientation angles of 30°, 90°, and 150° at the blowing ratios of 0.5, 0.8, 1.1, and 1.4. The injection orientation angle and the groove on the surface caused the effect of the various and irregular shaped hole injection due to the different orientation injection. The results showed that the new phenomenon of film effectiveness distributions was found on the grooved surface compared with the flat plate case. Film effectiveness distributions for the β = 30° were found to be the discontinuous strips. The surface averaged film effectiveness with the orientation angle of 30° was found to decrease with the increase of the blowing ratio. Additionally, the reverse trend was observed with the orientation angle of 150°. The film effectiveness with the orientation angle of 90° only slightly changed with the increase of the blowing ratio.

The paper reviews the use of grooved surfaces and sawtooth (chevron) edges to control the flow parameters of the wings, propeller blades and elements of vane propulsion systems operating in both gaseous and liquid media. Particular attention is paid to the physical mechanisms of improving the hydrodynamic, cavitation and acoustic characteristics under the influence of a grooved surface. These mechanisms are associated with a change in the flow structure in the region of the laminar-turbulent transition, the peculiarities of the occurrence of cavitation and acoustic radiation in the region of the outgoing edges. The results of the verification of computational models describing the behavior of the flow taking into account the laminar-turbulent transition, the use of which is necessary for studying flows near a grooved surface, are presented.


The viscosity-dominated unsteady flow in a row of small transverse square cavities lying submerged in a turbulent boundary layer is first considered. Experiments performed primarily with one size of cavities show that the cavity flow can be excited by freestream disturbances in a narrow frequency band that is independent of the flow speed. The turbulent boundary layer in which the cavities are submerged remains transparent to the disturbances. The cavity flow resonates when the depths of the cavity and the Stokes layer are nearly the same, that is when 2π fk 2 / v = 1, where f is the frequency of the resonant cavity flow, k is the cavity height and v is the kinematic viscosity of the fluid. An associated laminar boundary-layer excitation experiment shows that the instability process over the grooved surface also involves the amplification of Tollmien–Schlichting (T–S) waves in much the same manner as in a smooth-wall Blasius profile but the grooves enhance receptivity. A theory is given proposing that the resonant groove flow in the low Reynolds number turbulent boundary layer is driven by highly amplified matched T–S waves. The possible relevance of the observed coupling between the large-scale freestream disturbances and the small-scale cavity flows to the turbulence production mechanism in a smooth flat-plate turbulent boundary layer is also discussed.

In this study, a geometrical model was introduced to improve the hair trapping via a surface contacting the yarn-twisting triangle during ring twisting of two single yarns. The fiber-trapping improvement with the contact surface was analyzed theoretically. Then, single Ne 80 ring cotton yarns were used to produce two-ply yarns under different ring-twisting conditions, namely conventional twisting, dry twisting of yarns with a plane surface, wet twisting of yarns with a plane surface, dry twisting of yarns with a grooved surface, and wet twisting of yarns with a grooved surface. Plied yarn properties, including yarn hairiness, strength, and irregularity, were tested. The Student Newman Keuls (SNK) test and variation analysis were also carried out in the SPSS program to study the effect of different contact surfaces on related yarn properties; the significance level was 0.05 for the SNK test and variation analysis. The hairiness of plied yarns was significantly reduced when twisting with the plane or grooved surface, especially for the wet twisting cases. This corresponds well with our model on improving fiber trapping.

Experimental investigation of Over-Tip-Rotor circumferential groove liners has shown potential for fan noise suppression in turbofan engines whilst providing minimal penalty in fan aerodynamic performance. The validation of Over-Tip-Rotor liner analytical prediction models against published experimental data requires the modelling of an equivalent impedance for such acoustic treatments. This paper describes the formulation of two analytical groove impedance models as semi-locally reacting liners, that is locally reacting in the axial direction and non-locally reacting in the azimuthal direction. The models are cross-verified by comparison with high-order FEM simulations, and applied to a simplified Over-Tip-Rotor configuration consisting of multiple grooves excited by a monopole point source located close to the grooved surface.

Computational fluid dynamics modeling at Reynolds numbers ranging from 10 to 100 was used to characterize the performance of a new type of micromixer employing a serpentine channel with a grooved surface. The new topology exploits the overlap between the typical Dean flows present in curved channels due to the centrifugal forces experienced by the fluids, and the helical flows induced by slanted groove-ridge patterns with respect to the direction of the flow. The resulting flows are complex, with multiple vortices and saddle points, leading to enhanced mixing across the section of the channel. The optimization of the mixers with respect to the inner radius of curvature (Rin) of the serpentine channel identifies the designs in which the mixing index quality is both high (M > 0.95) and independent of the Reynolds number across all the values investigated.

A passive shock wave control method, using a grooved surface instead of the original smooth surface of a gas turbine nozzle vane to alter a single shock wave into a multiple shock wave structure, is investigated in this paper, so as to gain insight into the flow characteristics of a multiple shock wave system and its variations with various grooved surface geometry parameters. With the combination of numerical and experimental approaches, the shock wave structure and the flow behavior in a linear turbine nozzle channel with different grooved surface configurations were compared and analyzed in details. The numerical and experimental results indicate that the multiple shock wave structure induced by the grooved surface is beneficial for mitigating the intensity of the shock wave, reducing the potential excitation force of the shock wave and decreasing the shock wave loss as well. It was also found that the benefits are related to the geometry of the grooved surface, such as groove width, depth, and number. However, the presence of the grooved surface inevitably causes more viscous boundary layer loss and wake loss, which maybe a bottleneck for general engineering application of such a passive shock wave mitigation method.
