Summary
A turbulence model for small polymer additives in a boundary layer on a flat plate is proposed with an account being taken of optimum polymer concentration. Results of a numerical investigation of the solution flow on a flat semi-infinite plate are presented. These results are in a satisfactory agreement with axperimental data.
