SOME MASS TRANSFER EFFECTS ON THE WALL JET

Abstract

The wall jet with suction or injection is investigated; an analysis under conditions corresponding to similar flows is shown to reduce to an eigenvalue problem. Asymptotic solutions valid far from the surface are used to initiate the integration and circumvent the usual iteration associated with the two-point boundary value problem. Typical solutions for various rates of suction and injection are obtained. It is found th t the skin friction decreases with increasing rate of suction. Representative thermal solutions are obtained for Prandtl and Lewis numbers equal to one, under the pecial condition that the surface temperature is equal to the ambient temperature or that the enthalpy varies monotonically from the surface value to the ambient value.
