A CRITICAL EXAMINATION OF THE BOUNDARY LAYER EQUATIONS INCLUDING CHEMICAL REACTIONS DUE TO MASS ADDITION
Abstract
A review is presented of esse tial features of differ ntial equations applicable in t e boundary layer with mass tr nsfer at the wall, including consideration of chemical reactions. A brief deriv tion is given and the equations are presented in the alternate forms u eful for various applications. PECI L DISCUSSION IS GIV OF THE WALL BOUND RY CONDITION BECAUSE OF PO IBL CO FU ION ARISING FROM EFFECTS OF MASS TRANSFER AT THE WALL. A GENERAL SOLUTION TO THESE EQUATIONS IS OBTAINED WHICH MAK S IT PO SIBL TO DET RMINE THE HEAT TRANSFER POTENTIALS, SUBJECT ONLY TO THE REQUIREMENT THAT Lewis Mo uli equal u ity for ll po ibl boundary layer chemical reactions; o limitation is placed on reaction rates or other details of the reaction, or on the Prandtl Modulus. In the limiti g case where reactions go to completion the po ential may be written directly. As examples, solutions are pres nted for the case of combustion of carbon to CO and for the dissociation and recombination within the boundary layer of an injected material. (Author)
