Abstract

The Prandtl's layer equations was considered for laminar flow past a plate with suction/blowing of the flow rate density v0(x) = ∓v i2∓1/2RE1/2x ∓1/2. It was found that Reynolds number was large the solution of the problem had a parabolic boundary layer at the surface of the plate excluding its leading edge. A direct numerical method for computing approximations to the solution of this problem using a piecewise uniform fitted mesh technique was also constructed. It was also shown by extensiv.
