PCT No. PCT/GB93/00405 Sec. 371 Date Sep. 19, 1994 Sec. 102(e) Date Sep. 19, 1994 PCT Filed Feb. 26, 1993 PCT Pub. No. WO93/19980 PCT Pub. Date Oct. 14, 1993Measures are disclosed for modifying the boundary layer flow over fluid dynamic surfaces using patterns of riblets which are set at a peak-to-peak spacing substantially less than 80 wall units and which are provided with boundary layer suction means comprising apertures (A) between the riblets for a combinative improvement of boundary layer flow. In a further aspect, riblets are employed in combination with wall apertures as an improved means of shock wave (W) control by permitting recirculation of boundary layer fluid from downstream to upstream of the shock wave. |
