The Crocco-Transformation for the Three-Dimensional Prandtl Boundary Layer Equations.

Abstract

The three-dimensional fluid flow of a steady or unsteady moving incompressible continuous medium is considered. Several Crocco-type transformations are applied which reduce the system of three equations of the Prandtl boundary layer to a system of two strongly coupled parabolic equations.
