Drag reduction in microfluidic

Frictional force is an unavoidable problem in transportation in pipeline which will cause a great pressure drop in the pipeline. Currently, industries use pumps to maintain the pressure in the pipeline for transportation. In order to solve this problem, researchers were developing drag reduction tec...
