Discussion of the results of the boundary-layer tests of an airfoil fitted with a rotary cylinder (open access)

Discussion of the results of the boundary-layer tests of an airfoil fitted with a rotary cylinder

The results of the velocity measurements in the boundary layer described in NACA-TM 411 are here discussed in greater detail. The measurements made were of the velocity distribution in the vicinity of an airfoil model fitted with a rotary cylinder and were undertaken for the purpose of obtaining a closer insight into the phenomena observed in experimenting with this model.
