Additional Two-Dimensional Wake and Jet-Like Flows

Abstract

A number of authors have described wake and jet-like similarity solutions to the steady, two-dimensional, laminar, incompressible boundary layer equations. These solutions are shown to be a subset of a larger class of solutions including those with algebraic velocity profile functions near the outer edge of the boundary layer. In addition to describing the relationship between solutions, the limiting cases are described in which the pressure gradient parameter becomes infinite and where the wall and edge velocities are equal.
