| Abstract: | The momentum integral technique for predicting the boundary–layer growth in three–dimensional flow has been extended to include the entrainment equation as the closure model. Special attention has been devoted to those terms in the differential equations that change the boundary–layer structure from that of cvasi two–dimensional steady flow, at outboard locations, to a tree–dimensional flow pattern. It is concluded that the stall is delayed due to the boundary–layer reattachment at inboard sections in conjunction with the onset of a spanwise vortex like structure.
