Turbulent Boundary Layer in Supersonic Flow

Abstract

The book discusses the results of theoretical and experimental studies of skin friction, heat transfer, and mass transfer in a turbulent boundary layer at supersonic gas velocities. At the same time the book presents the fundamentals of the molecular theory of gas flow. It gives derivations of the equations of turbulent flow and of boundary layer equations, in particular, for a multicomponent reacting gas. Information on the kinetics of chemical reactions in air is discussed. Problems of heat and mass transfer through permeable surfaces are also discussed.
