An Approximate Analytical Solution of the Laminar Boundary Layer Equations

Using the pressure gradient as the new variable instead of. the ordinary longitudinal coordinate x, Liu transformed the ordinary laminar boundary equations into a new form. On this base Liu obtained the frictional stress factor by using the graphical method.In this paper the same variable replacement as in [1] is used and an approximate analytical solution of the laminar boundary layer equations by the series method is obtained. The author also obtains a formula of frictional stress factor. For the case of the main function without the term of constant, the author makes a further simplification. The error of the frictional stress factor obtained by the author is still less than 10%, compared with that of [1].
