Synopsis

Drag Reducing Polymers (DRPs): Principles, Types, and Applications is the first treatment of the subject in book form. The treatment is extremely broad, ranging from physicochemical to hydro mechanical aspects.The book shows how polymer molecules or surfactants at any concentrations can reduce the drag of fluid flow, leading to energy savings. The polymeric additives are considered in terms of the physical chemistry and rheology, and the properties of fluid flows are presented in sufficient detail to explain the various interaction mechanisms. Those active in fundamental research on fluid flow and those seeking to apply the effects described. Rheologists, Fluid mechanics engineers, those interested in energy-saving methods, or in any other application in which the fluid flow rate should be increased.
