Adaptation of a turbulent boundary layer on a convex sufrace

Journal of Engineering Physics and Thermophysics Aims and scope

Abstract

The paper presents the results of numerical investigation of the adaptation of velocity profiles, turbulent shear stresses, and coefficients of friction in boundary-layer development along a convex surface and on transition of the boundary layer from a plane surface to convex one. A parameter is obtained that characterizes the completion of adaptation and its dependence on the basic flow parameters. Equations are presented for calculating coefficients of friction in the portion of boundary-layer adaptation and in the main portion.
