Abstract
In this note we present some results concerning the time required for turbulent structures to achieve their steady state, called here the developing time. Notably, there is a drag increase at the very start of the test. Such a drag increase is strongly dependent on the concentration, molecular weight, temperature, Reynolds number, and molecule conformation before the test start-up. The analysis conducted here improves the understanding of the way drag reduction evolves over time, which was considered in Pereira et al. (2013).
