Abstract: The compressible fluid flow field synergy principle was presented as an effective theoretical guide to reduce the drag during compressible flow. A compressible flow field synergy model was presented based on the incompressible flow field synergy principle. A variable cross-section pipeline air of compressible flow was used to verify the model. Two specific improvement schemes were studied for practical applications, which showed a 24% and 20% reduction in the resistance. (C) 2014 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
