CONTRIBUTION TO THE APPROXIMATION THEORY OF COMPRESSIBLE TURBULENT BOUNDARY LAYERS. II. CALCULATION OF UNIVERSAL FUNCTIONS AND EXAMPLES,
Abstract
A critical examination of the utilizability of the infinite number of available integral con ditions for the improvement of the approximation theory for laminar and turbulent boundary layers is made. It is shown that earlier physics con cepts (26), (27), with respect to the appli cation of empirical laws for shearing stress and dissipation of turbulent boundary layers on the compressible area, can also be generalized for the case of flow with heat transfer. Drag co efficients up to Mach 7, calculated for the flat plate on the basis of this generalization, agree well with available measurement results. Fi nally, several ideas for improving and simplify ing the approximation theory are discussed. (Author)
