| Abstract: | Numerical and approximate analytic methods are used to investigate three-dimensional laminar boundary layers on blunt bodies with permeable surface in a supersonic gas stream. In the first approximation of the integral method of successive approximation an analytic solution is obtained to the problem for an impermeable surface, small values of the blowing parameter, and arbitrary suction. For large parameters of the blowing (or suction), whose velocity vector in the general case is directed at a certain angle to the vector of the outer normal to the body, asymptotic expressions are derived for the components of the frictional stress and the heat flux. A numerical solution is obtained to the equations of the three-dimensional boundary layer in a wide range of variation of the blowing (or suction) parameter. The accuracy and region of applicability of the analytic solutions is estimated by comparison with the numerical solutions. On the basis of the solutions obtained in the present paper and the work of other authors an expression is proposed for calculating the heat fluxes to a perfectly catalytic surface of a body in a three-dimensional supersonic flow of dissociated or ionized air. The present paper continues earlier work of the authors 1, 2] on boundary layers in the neighborhood of a symmetry plane and on sweptback wings of infinite span.Translated from Izvestiya Akademii Nauk SSSR, Mekhanika Zhidkosti i Gaza, No. 2, pp. 49–58, May–June, 1982. |
