The concepts of eddy kinematic viscosity and eddy diffusivity are used to calculate skin friction and heat transfer coefficients for the turbulent boundary layer on a flat plate. The eddy kinematic viscosity, eddy diffusivity, and turbulent Prandtl number vary across the boundary layer. The Mach number range is from zero to ten. The surface to stream temperature ratio varies from one-half to eight, and includes the insulated surface. The friction results are compared with experimental data. Velocity and temperature profiles for the entire region from the surface to the outer edge are compared with experimental data. (Author).

This new edition of the near-legendary textbook by Schlichting and revised by Gersten presents a comprehensive overview of boundary-layer theory and its application to all areas of fluid mechanics, with particular emphasis on the flow past bodies (e.g. aircraft aerodynamics). The new edition features an updated reference list and over 100 additional changes throughout the book, reflecting the latest advances on the subject.

Shock wave-boundary-layer interaction (SBLI) is a fundamental phenomenon in gas dynamics that is observed in many practical situations, ranging from transonic aircraft wings to hypersonic vehicles and engines. SBLIs have the potential to pose serious problems in a flowfield; hence they often prove to be a critical - or even design limiting - issue for many aerospace applications. This is the first book devoted solely to a comprehensive, state-of-the-art explanation of this phenomenon. It includes a description of the basic fluid mechanics of SBLIs plus contributions from leading international experts who share their insight into their physics and the impact they have in practical flow situations. This book is for practitioners and graduate students in aerodynamics who wish to familiarize themselves with all aspects of SBLI flows. It is a valuable resource for specialists because it compiles experimental, computational and theoretical knowledge in one place.
