Skin friction of incompressible turbulent boundary layer under adverse pressure gradients

F. R. Goldschmied

Abstract

Note presenting experimental data for skin friction of turbulent boundary layers under adverse pressure gradients from several sources in graphical form. Data obtained by the momentum-balance method are shown to follow a trend opposite to that of data obtained by hot-wire and heat-transfer methods.
