In this study, polyethylene oxides were used as a drag reducing additive. The effect of the concentration and molecular weight of the polymer on the level of drag reduction was examined using, 4 molecular weights (2 Γ— 10 5 , 4Γ—10 5 , 9Γ—10 5 and, 4 Γ— 10 6 ) and 4 concentrations (1, 5, 10 and, 20 wppm

Secondary flows are always present when a turbulent Newtonian fluid flows through a square duct. We show that they are suppressed in surfactant solutions at maximum drag reduction. This result confirms the one-dimensional behaviour of such flows, which is caused by the alignment of the micelles.
