Abstract:

The theory of a turbulent boundary layer of a compressible gas is set forth or based on a study of the relative change of the coefficients of friction and heat transfer with growth of the M number, the heat transfer factor and the wall permeability factor b. The existence is shown of a limiting law, corresponding to very large Re numbers and almost full of self-simulation of relative changes of the coefficients of friction and heat transfer. Engineering methods are presented for solving the basic problems of friction and heat transfer in turbulent flow of a gas past a solid body. The theoretical conclusions are compared with experimental data.
