Abstract

On the basis of the boundary layer equations in the linear approximation and the equations for the single-point second-order moments of the velocity and temperature fields closed by means of the semiempirical Kolmogorov-Rotta hypotheses, the problem of the development of a wake behind an axisymmetric body in a temperature-stratified incompressible fluid flow is solved using the integral relation method. The anisotropic nature of the expansion of the wake behind the body is established.
