Abstract

Theoretical and experimental results are presented relative to the fundamental phenomena associated with laminar boundary layers in the “slip flow” range of densities. This corresponds to values of the ratio of the mean free path λ to the boundary layer thickness δ in the range of 0.01 < λ/δ < 1.0.

Der Bericht wurde von S. A. Schaaf erstattet. Da die Verfasser ihre Ergebnisse im Rahmen einer anderweitig erscheinenden Darstellung zu veröffentlichen beabsichtigen, kann hier nur die im Tagungsmaterial enthaltene Inhaltsankündigung wiedergegeben werden. — D. Hrsg.
