  • The boundary layer on an axisymmetric surface above which the flow is rotating about the axis of symmetry is considered. Transformations of the governing equations which permit the generalizations of a known solution for one meridian shape in incompressible flow to a family of meridian shapes are shown to exist. For compressible flow, a transformation of the Stewartson-Illingworth type was found which reduces a compressible flow problem to an incompressible case. Also, remarks are made concerning the invariance of the turbulent boundary-layer integral equations assuming particular semi-empirical shear laws.
