Perforated Plates have been used at large angles of incidence to produce drag forces and evidence on their properties has been published by de Bray. Less appears to be known about the drag forces on such surfaces at zero incidence, although they are usually considered to be aerodynamically rough. This has been confirmed by Ambrose, who carried out pipe flow experiments using perforated liners which fitted tightly in the bore of a pipe. Perforated plates used in this way do not allow flow completely through them and give “pitted” surfaces. If a perforated plate is mounted so that it is possible for cross flows to occur between the main flows on both sides of the plate the drag forces on it may be affected, and in this case the perforations will be referred to as “holes.”
