Summary

If a thin flat plate initially with an arbitrary temperature distribution along its length is suddenly moved from rest at a constant velocity through the air, the aerodynamic heating by boundary layer friction gradually changes the plate temperature to the adiabatic equilibrium value. The solution to this problem is obtained and illustrated by an example.
