CALCULATION OF THE SPALDING FUNCTION OVER A RANGE OF PRANDTL NUMBERS,

Abstract

An extensive tabulation is presented of the Spalding function = SP/square root (.5c), where S = Stanton number, P = Prandtl number, c = skin-friction coefficient. This tabulation is useful in the calculation of heat transfer rates into fully developed turbulent boundary layers. Numerical data are presented for P = 0.71, 1, 7, 30, 100, and 1,000. (Author)
