In this paper, we develop a new time-space fractional constitution relation to study the unsteady boundary layer flow over a stretching sheet. For the convenience of calculation, the boundary layer flow is simulated as a symmetrical rectangular area. The implicit difference method combined with an L1-algorithm and shift Grünwald scheme is used to obtain the numerical solutions of the fractional governing equation. The validity and solvability of the present numerical method are analyzed systematically. The numerical results show that the thickness of the velocity boundary layer increases with an increase in the space fractional parameter γ. For a different stress fractional parameter α, the viscoelastic fluid will exhibit viscous or elastic behavior, respectively. Furthermore, the numerical method in this study is validated and can be extended to other time-space fractional boundary layer models.

An experimental research program was conducted to determine the influence of free-stream turbulence on zero pressure gradient, fully turbulent boundary layer flow. Connective heat transfer coefficients and boundary layer mean velocity and temperature profile data were obtained for a constant free-stream velocity of 30 m/s and free-stream turbulence intensities ranging from approximately 1/4 to 7 percent. Free-stream multicomponent turbulence intensity, longitudinal integral scale, and spectral distributions were obtained for the full range of turbulence levels. The test results with 1/4 percent free-stream turbulence indicate that these data were in excellent agreement with classic two-dimensional, low free-stream turbulence, turbulent boundary layer correlations. For fully turbulent boundary layer flow, both the skin friction and heat transfer were found to be substantially increased (up to ∼ 20 percent) for the higher levels of free-stream turbulence. Detailed results of the experimental study are presented in the present paper (Part I). A comprehensive analysis is provided in a companion paper (Part II).
