Abstract

"Theoretical analyses are presented of the effect of slip on the flow of a rarefied gas near a stagnation point and in a boundary layer on a flat plate. The results indicate that the stagnation pressure is increased because of the effect of slip but that there is a negligible effect on the flat-plate skin-friction coefficient in the range of application of the analysis" (p. 1).
