The problem of describing the boundary layer existing inside a conical surface due to the presence of a swirling flow passing through the cone is considered. Approximate solutions based upon the Karman-Polhausen method are obtained for both the laminar and the turbulent cases. The results obtained are in close agreement with known solutions previously obtained in the limits of swirl with no throughflow and throughflow with no swirl. The present results appear to be valid over the entire range of swirl to throughflow ratios.

Equations for the extrapolation of calibration data for ASME/PTC 6 throat tap nozzles are derived from boundary layer theory. The results match published coefficients with a maximum difference of +0.03 percent. It is also shown that the effects of transition in the boundary layer extend to throat Reynolds numbers in excess of 10,000,000, far beyond the capacity of any known calibration laboratory. The present PTC 6 requirement that calibration data must be in the fully turbulent range cannot be met with current facilities.
