The Laminar Boundary Layer On A Yawed Infinite Cylinder PDF Download

Heat-transfer and skin-friction parameters obtained from exact solutions to the laminar compressible boundary-layer equations for infinite cylinders in yaw are presented. The effects of transpiration cooling, Prandtl number, pressure gradient, wall temperature, and viscosity relation were investigated. It is shown that as the Mach number is increased for a given large yaw angle the effects of pressure gradient become larger and the quantity of coolant required to maintain a given wall temperature is also increased. The use of a linear viscosity-temperature relation gives approximately the same results as the Sutherland viscosity-temperature relation except for very high aerodynamic heating rates.
