The mechanism of turbulent heat transfer in the thermal boundary layer developing in the channel flow of a drag-reducing surfactant solution was studied experimentally. A two-component laser Doppler velocimetry and a fine-wire thermocouple probe were used to measure the velocity and temperature fluctuations simultaneously. Two layers of thermal field were found: a high heat resistance layer with a high temperature gradient, and a layer with a small or even zero temperature gradient. The peak value ofwas larger for the flow with the drag-reducing additives than for the Newtonian flow, and the peak location was away from the wall. The profile ofwas depressed in a similar manner to the depression of the profile ofin the flow of the surfactant solution, i.e., decorrelation betweenvandθcompared with decorrelation betweenuandv. The depression of the Reynolds shear stress resulted in drag reduction; similarly, it was conjectured that the heat transfer reduction is due to the decrease in the turbulent heat flux in the wall-normal direction for a flow with drag-reducing surfactant additives.
