Abstract
Different methods for measuring the drag of small two-dimensional surface irregularities are considered. The pressure distribution technique is employed to measure the drag of small backward-facing steps in six different free stream pressure gradient flows. Results obtained show that Gaudet and Johnson's logarithmic drag coefficient relationship for zero pressure gradient is valid over a wide range of pressure gradients.
