A GENERALIZATION TO TURBULENT BOUNDARY LAYERS OF MANGLER'S TRANSFORMATION BETWEEN AXISYMMETRIC AND TWO-DIMENSIONAL LAMINAR BOUNDARY LAYERS

Abstract

This report presents a derivation of a method for obtaining the properties of a turbulent boundary layer on a body of revolution from the properties on a corresponding two-dimensional body. The method is a generalization to turbulent flow of Mangler's well-known transformation for laminar flow; Mangler's transformation is a special case of the generalized transformation.
