Abstract
Coexistent processes of heat, mass and momentum transfer operative within a combustible turbulent boundary layer have been experimentally investigated. The boundary layer was established on a porous cylinder mounted in a low-speed wind tunnel with its long axis in the flow direction. Methane was transpired into the boundary layer and ignited. Results indicate that the dimensionless transfer numbers corresponding to the three transfer processes can be correlated by the formula 0.038Re−0.2 to within ± 30% of measured values so that a rough numerical analogy exists among all three processes. The effect of mass injection on the skin friction coefficient is reasonably well accounted for by available theory. No effect of mass injection was found on the values of heat and mass transfer parameters. Finally, there was a lack of evidence indicating any sort of reaction-generated turbulence or that the experimentally demonstrated disturbance of the viscous layer by mass injection substantially affected the transport phenomena.
