Generalization of Boundary-Layer Momentum-Integral Equations to Three-Dimensional Flows Including Those of Rotating System

Description: "The Navier-Stokes equations of motion and the equation of continuity are transformed so as to apply to an orthogonal curvilinear coordinate system rotating with a uniform angular velocity about an arbitrary axis in space. A usual simplification of these equations as consistent with the accepted boundary-layer theory and an integration of these equations through the boundary layer result in boundary-layer momentum-integral equations for three-dimensional flows that are applicable to either rota… more

Laminar Boundary Layer Over Flat Plate in a Flow Having Circular Streamlines

Description: Note presenting an investigation of the laminar-boundary-layer development over a semi-infinite flat plate placed in a flow with concentric circular streamlines with the limitation of small total turning of the mainstream flow. Results indicated that the profile of the velocity component in the direction of the flow outside the boundary layer is identical to that existing in two-dimensional flow over a flat plate.

Attainable Circulation About Airfoils in Cascade

Description: "From consideration of available information on boundary-layer behavior, a relation among profile thickness, maximum surface velocity, Reynolds number, velocity diagram, and solidity is established for a cascade of airfoils immersed in a two-dimensional incompressible fluid flow. Several cascades are computed to show the effect of various cascade design parameters on minimum required cascade solidity. Comparisons with experimentally determined blade performance show that the derived blade loadi… more

Discussion of boundary-layer characteristics near the wall of an axial-flow compressor

Description: From Summary: "The boundary-layer velocity profiles in the tip region of an axial-flow compressor downstream of the guide vanes and downstream of the rotor were measured by use of total-pressure and claw-type yaw probes. These velocities were resolved into two components: one along the streamline of the flow outside the boundary layer, and the other perpendicular to it. The affinity among all profiles was thus demonstrated with the boundary-layer thickness and the deflection of the boundary lay… more
