摘要

Nontoxic bio-polymeric drag reducers are of great practical importance. In this work, a new natural and environmentally friendly drag reducer is introduced, which is extracted from the yam. Yam mucilage solutions are highly shear thinning and are insensitive to temperature variation. Their drag-reducing capability is tested in a water tunnel with the injection of yam mucilage solutions at the bottom wall. The main flow speed varies 0.5–2 m/s, and the corresponding bulk Reynolds number (Re) varied from 11 467 to 45 868. The mean concentration profile from the planar laser-induced fluorescence (PLIF) images and the mean velocity profile from the particle image velocimetry (PIV) images are obtained to explain the drag reduction of the yam mucilage solution. A maximum drag-reduction rate (DR) of 25.27% is achieved. The effects of the solution concentration, the injection rate, and the main flow speed on the drag-reduction efficiency are explored. The DR-log10K fitting curve is linear, consistent with that of the reported polymer drag reducers. The K-scaling laws also imply that the consumption of yam mucilage would be much more than that of polyethylene oxide (PEO) corresponding to similar DR. The further revelation of the effective drag-reducing component within the yam mucilage is believed to promote the efficiency of drag reduction. The yam mucilage is a candidate drag-reducing agent that can be an alternative to existing polymer solutions.
