Approximate calculations of the laminar boundary layer with suction, with particular reference to the suction requirements for boundary-layer stability on aerofoils of different thickness/chord ratios

M. R. Head (1957)

1. General Introduction.--In an earlier report an account was given of an approximate method for calculating the incompressible laminar boundary layer in two dimensions. Application of the method to the various cases for ...
An approximate method of calculating the laminar boundary layer in two-dimensional incompressible flow

M. R. Head (1957)

Summary.--In the present approximate method the use of a doubly-infinite family of boundary-layer velocity profiles enables the momentum and energy integral equations of the boundary layer to be satisfied exactly, together ...
Calculation of the turbulent boundary layer in a vortex diffuser

T-S Cham; M. R. Head (1969)

Summary. In two-dimensional potential flow the combination of a source and a free vortex produces an axis-symmetric flow with streamlines in the form of equiangular spirals. Calculations have been made of the turbulent ...
Entrainment in the turbulent boundary layer

M. R. Head (1958)

By considering the entrainment properties of the turbulent boundary layer, a new and simple form of auxiliary equation has been derived for the calculation of the form parameter H. Comparison with experimental results shows ...
Flight experiments on boundary-layer control for low drag

M. R. Head; D. Johnson; M. Coxon (1955)

Tests have been made with distributed suction applied to a short-span sleeve fitted to the upper surface of the wing of a single-seat Vampire aircraft. Full-chord laminar flow was maintained up to Reynolds numbers in the ...
Heat-transfer calculations for the constant-property turbulent boundary layer and comparisons with experiment

F. A. Dvorak; M. R. Head (1967)

Summary A method of calculation proposed earlier depended upon the numerical integration of the heat-transfer equation within fields of velocity and conductivity defined by an approximate solution of the boundary-layer ...
Improved entrainment method for calculating turbulent boundary layer development

M. R. Head; V. C. Patel (1968)

Summary. A simple integral method is presented for the calculation of two-dimensional incompressible turbulent boundary layers. Use is made of established relationships to determine values of the entrainment coefficient ...
