THE LAMINAR BOUNDARY LAYER WITH UNIFORM INJECTION,

Abstract

The non-similar velocity distribution in a two-dimensional laminar boundary layer with uniform external stream and with either uniform suction or injection is obtained by a series expansion in terms of a mass transfer parameter. The results are compared with more accurate analyses and shown to be in good agreement for a range of values of this parameter. The solution for the velocity distribution is then employed for the calculation of the distributions of energy and element mass fraction when there are imposed requirements for energy and mass balance at the exposed surface of a porous plate with uniform injection. As one example of several possible applications of these solutions, there is computed the flow associated with the injection of hydrogen into an airstream according to the flame sheet model.
