Abstract
In this paper, the use of boundary-layer coordinates to compute various unsteady laminar two-dimensional viscous flows is discussed. Three illustrative examples are provided, including flow around a corner, free convective flow from a heated corner, and mixed convective vortex flow. A numerical solution procedure to solve the transformed equations is also outlined. Various results and comparisons are presented and discussed. Good agreement is found with well-known documented studies.
