Download or read book Study of Thick Boundary Layers Near the Tail of Bodies of Revolution written by V. C. Patel and published by . This book was released on 1973 with total page 6 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The research carried out under this contract can be divided into three main sections, namely (1) an experimental study of the thick, turbulent boundary-layer near the tail of a body of revolution, (2) methods of calculating the thick, axisymmetric, turbulent boundary-layer and its interaction with the potential flow, and (3) calculation of the viscous resistance of bodies of revolution at zero incidence. The progress made in each of these areas is reviewed.
