| Abstract: | High-Reynolds-number plane steady flow of a viscous incompressible fluid past small distortions on straight-line walls intersecting at a point source is considered. The flow regimes are investigated in detail for a near-critical diffuser opening half-angle, when the skin friction is small. Solutions with local separation zones are obtained. The dependence of the skin friction on the Reynolds number is determined for transition to streams with a large region of reversed flow.Moscow.
