dc.description.abstract | A study of the turbulent boundary layer on an airfoil in a cascade is presented. The major portion of the observations are on the suction surface of the airfoil. The effect of added diffusion across the cascade due to a three-dimensional flow is included. Empirical equations describing the boundary layer in terms of momentum and displacement thickness growth as a function of free-stream diffusion are developed. Shape factor is also related to free-stream diffusion. A reasonable check with an existing separation criterion is observed. An appendix contains a discussion of chord-wise integrating of various boundary layer parameters. | en_US |
