Effect Of Magnetic Field And Second Order Curvature On Hypersonic Boundary Layer  Blunt Body Flow
Hypersonic flow over blunt bodies is investigated analytically for contributions of the second order effect of longitudinal curvature in the presence of strong magnetic fields in reduction of skin-friction and heat transfer. The governing boundary layer equations are derived from the Navier-Stokes equations by an order of magnitude analysis in which only terms of 0(1) and 0(Re-½) are retained. Transformation
