Effect of approach-flow velocity and temperature nonuniformities on boundary-layer flow and heat transfer

TLDR
In this article, the laminar flow and heat transfer on a flat plate subjected to non-uniform velocity and temperature profiles in the approaching free stream have been analyzed and it was found that the effect of the nonuniformities is to reduce the wall shear and heat transferred on the downstream plate relative to their values for a uniform approach flow.

Boundary layer theory

TL;DR: The flow laws of the actual flows at high Reynolds numbers differ considerably from those of the laminar flows treated in the preceding part, denoted as turbulence as discussed by the authors, and the actual flow is very different from that of the Poiseuille flow.

The Numerical Solution of the Asymptotic Equations of Trailing Edge Flow

TL;DR: In this article, the Navier-Stokes equations have been solved numerically by means of a Cauchy-integral algorithm for the outer layer and a modified Crank-Nicholson boundary layer program for the displacement-thickness interaction between the layers.

Evolution of the Laminar Wake behind a Flat Plate and Its Upstream Influence

TL;DR: In this article, a laminar, two-dimensional, viscous flow of an incompressible fluid over the trailing edge of a vanishingly thin flat plate is analyzed, and a coordinate transformation is introduced which admits sufficient scaling of the problem to enable detailed study of the separating flow and its interactions with the inviscid stream, as well as with a presumed boundary layer flow in an intermediate region.
