摘要：
In order to save energy and build high-performance vehicles, a new bionic non-smooth surface that can significantly reduce the drag of underwater vehicle is proposed based on the skin structure of killer whale. The drag reduction characteristics of non-smooth surface with different parameters are obtained through numerical simulation, and the influence of bionic non-smooth surface on near-wall flowfield and turbulence intensity is discussed. The results show that the bionic non-smooth surface can increase the turbulent boundary layer thickness in a wide range of velocities, and reduce the turbulence intensity and skin friction. In the range from 0.5 m/s to 15 m/s, the skin friction of plate with the bionic non-smooth surface is reduced by more than 9%, with a maximum total drag reduction ratio of 7.57%. By applying the bionic non-smooth surface to the SUBOFF submarine model, the maximum total drag reduction ratio of submarine achieves 11.31%. The new bionic non-smooth surface has a wide range of application, which can effectively reduce the total drag of underwater vehicles and has good prospects for engineering applications. © 2022, Editorial Board of Acta Armamentarii.
