Flow in the laminar boundary layer near separation

B. S. Stratford; G. E. Gadd (1954)

Summary.--A simple formula is derived for the separation of the laminar boundary layer. The method of derivation and a key test suggest that it should be reasonably accurate and of general application, including particularly ...
Heat-transfer and skin-friction measurements at a mach number of 2.44 for a turbulent boundary layer on a flat surface and in regions of separated flow

G. E. Gadd; W. F. Cope; J. L. Attridge (1958)

A considerable body of data exists concerning the skin friction, the heat-transfer characteristics, and the wall temperature for zero heat transfer for turbulent boundary layers in supersonic flow in the absence of separation. ...
Interactions between normal shock waves and turbulent boundary layers

G. E. Gadd (1961)

A theory, involving a simple new method for turbulent boundary layers, is presented for interactions between normal shocks and turbulent boundary layers on flat surfaces. Experiments in a pipe confirm the theory's general ...
A note on the theory of the stanton tube

G. E. Gadd (1958)

Existing theories for the Stanton tube are critically reviewed, and the paper then outlines a simple method which predicts the calibration function at high Reynolds numbers to the right order of magnitude.
