This paper investigates ionized gas flow in the boundary layer when its electroconductivity is varied. The flow is planar and the contour is porous. At first, it is assumed that the ionized gas electroconductivity ? depends only on the longitudinal variable. Then we adopt that it is a function of the ratio of the longitudinal velocity and the velocity at the outer edge of the boundary layer. For both electroconductivity variation laws, by application of the general similarity method, the governing boundary layer equations are brought to a generalized form and numerically solved in a four-parametric three times localized approximation. Based on many tabular solutions, we have shown diagrams of the most important nondimensional values and characteristic boundary layer functions for both of the assumed laws. Finally, some conclusions about influence of certain physical values on ionized gas flow in the boundary layer have been drawn. .

This paper studies the laminar boundary layer on a body of an arbitrary shape when the ionized gas flow is planar and steady and the wall of the body within the fluid porous. The outer magnetic field is perpendicular to the fluid flow. The inner magnetic and outer electric fields are neglected. The ionized gas electroconductivity is assumed to be a function of the longitudinal velocity gradient. Using transformations, the governing boundary layer equations are brought to a general mathematical model. Based on the obtained numerical solutions in the tabular forms, the behavior of important non-dimensional quantities and characteristics of the boundary layer is graphically presented. General conclusions about the influence of certain parameters on distribution of the physical quantities in the boundary layer are drawn.

This paper investigates the ionized gas flow in the boundary layer, when the contour of the body within the fluid is porous. Ionized gas is exposed to the influence of the outer magnetic field induction Bm = Bm(x), which is perpendicular to the contour of the body within the fluid. It is presumed that the electroconductivity of the ionized gas is a function only of the longitudinal coordinate, i.e. ? = ?(x). By means of adequate transformations, the governing boundary layer equations are brought to a generalized form. The obtained generalized equations are solved in a four-parameter localized approximation. Based on the obtained numerical solutions, diagrams of important physical values and characteristics of the boundary layer have been made. Conclusions have also been drawn.

This paper studies the influence of the magnetic field on the planar laminar steady flow of the ionized gas in the boundary layer. The present outer magnetic field is homogenous and perpendicular to the body within the fluid. The gas of the same physical characteristics as the gas in the main flow is injected (ejected) through the contour of the body. The governing boundary layer equations for different forms of the electroconductivity variation law are transformed, brought to a generalized form and solved numerically in a four-parametric approximation. It has been determined that the magnetic field, through the magnetic parameter, has a great influence on certain quantities and characteristics of the boundary layer. It has also been shown that this parameter has an especially significant influence on the non-dimensional friction function, and hence the boundary layer separation point.

The ionized gas flow in the boundary layer on bodies of revolution with porous contour is studied in this paper. The gas electroconductivity is assumed to be a function of the longitudinal coordinate x. The problem is solved using Saljnikov's version of the general similarity method. This paper is an extension of Saljnikov?s generalized solutions and their application to a particular case of magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) flow. Generalized boundary layer equations have been numerically solved in a four-parametric localized approximation and characteristics of some physical quantities in the boundary layer has been studied.

In the present paper, we analyze, both numerically and analytically, the influence a favourable pressure gradient has on the characteristics of dynamic boundary layer. It is shown that at a certain value of the pressure gradient asymptotic conditions can be reached in laminar boundary layer, with the skin-friction coefficient value being independent of the Reynolds number, like in the case of asymptotic suction of boundary layer through the porous wall. Some analogy between the two types of flow can be traced: in both cases, namely, at porous suction and in the boundary layer of an accelerated flow, a cross flow is generated, directed from the outer edge of the boundary layer toward the wall. For the conditions of the two types, an approximate analytical solution to the boundary-layer equations has been obtained. It is shown that in problems with first- and second-kind boundary conditions the favourable pressure gradient exerts an influence on the heat-transfer characteristics.

This paper studies the ideally dissociated air flow in the boundary layer when the contour of the body within the fluid is porous. By means of adequate transformations, the governing boundary layer equations of the problem are brought to a general form. The obtained equations are numerically solved in a three-parametric localized approximation. Based on the obtained solutions, very important conclusions about behavior of certain boundary layer physical values and characteristics have been drawn.

Supersonic laminar boundary-layer equations near the plane of symmetry of a cone at incidence are treated by the similarity method. Numerical integration of differential equations governing such a flow is performed, taking into consideration the temperature dependence of the Prandtl numberPrand viscosity μ throughout the boundary layer. On the leeward side, a detailed consideration of the solutions shows the existence of two solutions up to a critical incidence beyond which it appears that no solution may be found. Calculations carried out for a set of values of the external flow Mach number show up a significant effect of this parameter on the behaviour of the boundary layer.

This paper studies the ionized gas i.e. air flow in an axisymmetrical boundary layer adjacent to the bodies of revolution. The contour of the body within the fluid is nonporous. The ionized gas flows under the conditions of equilibrium ionization. A concrete form of the electroconductivity variation law has been assumed and studied here. Through transformation of variables and introduction of sets of parameters, V. N. Saljnikov's version of the general similarity method has been successfully applied. Generalized equations of axisymmetrical ionized gas boundary layer have been obtained and then numerically solved in a three-parametric localized approximation.
