Abstract

Note presenting numerical solutions of quantities appearing in the Karman momentum equation for the development of a turbulent boundary layer in plane and in radial compressible flows along thermally insulted surfaces in tabular form for a rnage of Mach numbers from 0.100 to 10. Through use of the tables, approximate calculation of boundary-layer growth is reduced to routine arithmetic computation.
