Recently, Considerable interest has developed in surfactant additives for use in district heating and cooling systems to lower pumping energy requirement. In this study, drag reduction for an enclosed rotating disk in surfactant solutions was clarified experimentally. Experiments were carried out to measure the torque of acting on one side of the disk. Test surfactant solutions were Ethoquad O/12 with sodium salicylate at concentration of 50, 100 and 200 ppm. The temperature of test solutions were 18, 25 and 31°C. It was shown that the drag reduction of the surfactant solutions was not only depended on the concentration but also on the temperature. From flow visualization technique, it has been clarified that the amplitude of circular vortices around the rotating disk were reduced by the surfactant solution and the flow direction near the disk was turned to outward. The maximum drag reduction ratio was about 30% in 200 ppm Ethoquad O/12 solution at about Re=5×105.
