Research Data
The mean velocity and turbulence profiles obtained in a flat plate, incompressible boundary layer for Reynolds numbers based on momentum thickness of about 5,000 to 13,000 are now available. Please click on the links given in the left sidebar to obtain the data files. The files are listed by name and are text files and can be read by Excel. There is a ReadMe file that describes the format in detail.
