On the nature of elasto-inertial turbulence
Abstract eng: The instability arising in dilute polymer solutions has been studied experimentally. The effect of polymer concentration on the flow behaviour, with a focus on the friction factor and fluctuation intensity, was studied with the aim of better distinguishing between turbulence arising in Newtonian fluids and that in dilute polymer solutions. We concluded that long-chain polymers have the ability to completely supress Newtonian turbulence and give rise to an independent form of turbulence which has been termed elasto-inertial turbulence.
