Problems in the Theory of Viscous Compressible Fluids

摘要: The present study was suggested by several problems and difficulties that had appeared in previous experimental theoretical investigations of viscosity effects compressible fluids. outstanding problem the extension classical (Prandtl) boundary-layer theory to high-speed flow, especially supersonic flow. In equations motion are simplified assuming viscous confined a narrow region close wall through which changes rapid compared those direction wall. Then resulting non-linear studied with aim obtaining flow field this or boundary layer. pressure is usually obtained from potential no-viscous about body. Several authors have has same basic assumptions but allows for compressibility heat conduction. However, phenomena known show do not apply, at least certain regions.
