The physics of a boundary layer developing over perforated plates at a moderate Reynolds number is gained from a combined experimental and numerical investigation.rnThe experiments are conducted combining hot wire anemometry and steresocopic PIV.rnThe findings are consistent with literature as to the possibility of reducing drag with circular perforations.
