the present writer s, t. 7, 99, the work done by the mean stresses is re-
placed by the i n t e ~ o~ the total r ~ . of viscous energy cUsaipa~ ion E,
Where E is given b y Eq . ( 7 . ! ) .
While f or laminar boundary layers &ppro~ ,-~ t~ methods are used
only to alleriate the ms~ emaCical ~m~uttie~ i n the i ~ t i a l ~ eVerentif f il
equations, the 0i t u~ o n is entirely dif f erent in the turbu/ent case. The
cironmatam, oe t hst the turbulent motion is not acce~ ible to & ms t h~
mf i ~ treatment, rend em the exact solutiof f i impossible. The extent
to-which the genend system of Eqs. (2.2) t o (2.4) is to be -[mplif ied de,
pends on how f ar i t appears possible to derive, in an empirical manne~ ;
general :~ l~ .f ions f urtlie nn]mown quantitiee f rom available experimenta
which.in turn depends on how many det ~ l s of tlie f low are experL-
mentally determined. I t is not Surprising thr.', the T~iOUS invest, i~pLtom
h~ ve very~ diverging opinions with, regard to the question aa to how ~ Lr
t h e equations should be simplif ied or how compl icat ~ the system rosy
be. This state of :af f airs has r~ u/ t ed in great var/ety of proposed
methods. Very.crude -implif icationa of the problem require only simple
. empirie.al relation- and give equations which e.an eui l y be solved, but
the actual beh~ viour of the f low ia only insu~ ciently taken into aoeoun~
Very complicated methodJ, on the other hand, require, s compMenaive
knowledge of turbulent quantitiee, and the reliability of such m ~
supers of ten f rom inoorreot hypotheses on which t heempi r i cal relation-.
sre based. ~ o m t he theoretical point of view it is important to know
to what degree of ex~ t~ e~ _ and reliability the turbulent boundary
layer can be c a l ~ with preeent knowledge, without regard tO
the time necessary f or practical calculstion. The subsequent review of
the existing methods will be m a d e f rom such standpo/nt.
All equations will be given here f or st: ictly two-dimensional mean
f low, s/though it is not d~ m~ ult to derive the e qus ~ ns f or laterally
convergent or divergent f low.and f or a body of revolution in symm~ tri-

investigation o.f f if teen bounda1-y layers in adverse pressure gradients
i t was f o undt hat , on t he average, t h e energy integral equation Eq.
(17.9-) was satisf ied best, if s value of = - 2.57 was chosen. Two shear-
ing stress prof iles are ealeulated f rom these relations and. plotted in Fig.
20.4, For H - 1.6 agreement wit h t he shear st r e~ distribution calen-
l at ed f rom Eq. (20.11) is good, f or H - 2.22 t he agreement in poor.
Apart f rom t he special assumptions underlying these calculations t he
question of f undamental interest is how f ar t he notion tlutt t he shear

be ~ f or approximate boundary layer calculation. From t he results
of t h e direct problem, this um~ mption may appe~ t o be incompatible
with t he relations Eqs. (20.11), and (20.14)..This argument is however
not~ quite coneluaive. Since t he f unctions f z and ~ , f or t he same pars-
met er H, are approximately similar, it is conceivable t hat , f or a f i x e d

is raised also f or !-midst boundary layer calculation methods. Any
