Abstract It is now generally agreed that outer layer manipulations are not very efficient for obtaining a definite total drag reduction in turbulent boundary layers: the presence of manipulators creates an amount of drag that practically balances the decrease of wall skin-friction. Hence, the total effect can be considered to be practically nil. This aspect has led to a lack of interest for systematic studies on the process for reducing drag [1].
