Abstract

The effect of heat transfer on boundary-layer growth is considered for the problem of a main stream of small Mach number which is instantaneously released past a heated cylinder, or alternatively the cylinder is accelerated impulsively into a stream at rest. In particular the effect of different values of the given wall temperature on the interval to separation and the thickness of the boundary layer is investigated. It is found that the former is decreased and the latter increased by the presence of heat transfer.
