National Technical Reports Library

The National Technical Information Service acquires, indexes, abstracts, and archives the largest collection of U.S. government-sponsored technical reports in existence. The NTRL offers online, free and open access to these authenticated government technical reports. Technical reports and documents in its repository may be available online for free either from the issuing federal agency, the U.S. Government Publishing Office’s Federal Digital System website, or through search engines.

Abstract A new self consistent method has been developed for calculation of boundary layer with mass injection. The system of partial differential equations is reduced to a system of ordinary differential equations by integration over different strips. The velocity and enthalpy profiles are assumed to be expressed by series of error functions. A method of calculating the initial velocity and enthalpy profiles, based on an analysis of singularity, is presented herein. The calculation of the initial profiles is reduced to the solution of a system of transcendential equations. The initial derivatives are calculated from linearlized equations near the singular points and provide a smooth start of integration of the downstream equations. The present method was applied to the cases of a sharp edged body and a blunt body. In addition to the velocity and enthalpy profiles, the pressure distribution and shock layer thickness can be calculated from generalized Newtonian expressions developed as a part of this effort.
