Book excerpt: Three-dimensional compressible boundary-layer equations are particularized to the windward symmetry plane of a spherically blunted axisymmetric body at incidence under hypersonic conditions. Through the use eddy transport and streamwise intermittency both transitional and fully turbulent boundary layers may be treated. A scheme is presented for determining the outer-edge boundary conditions based on a mass flow balance treatment of the boundary-layer entrainment of the inviscid flow. A finite-difference technique is described for solving the set of partial differential equation governing the boundary-layer flow, and for treating the streamline-swallowing phenomenon.
