Two compressible turbulent boundary layers have been calculated by using direct numerical simulation. One case is a subsonic turbulent boundary layer with constant wall temperature for which the wall temperature is 1.58 times the freestream temperature and the other is a supersonic adiabatic turbulent boundary layer subjected to a supersonic freestream with a Mach number 1.8. The purpose of this study is to test the strong Reynolds analogy (SRA), the Van Driest transformation, and the applicability of Morkovin’s hypothesis. For the first case, the influence of the variable density effects will be addressed. For the second case, the role of the density fluctuations, the turbulent Mach number, and dilatation on the compressibility will be investigated. The results show that the Van Driest transformation and the SRA are satisfied for both of the flows. Use of local properties enable the statistical curves to collapse toward the corresponding incompressible curves. These facts reveal that both the compressibility and variable density effects satisfy the similarity laws. A study about the differences between the compressibility effects and the variable density effects associated with heat transfer is performed. In addition, the difference between the Favre average and Reynolds average is measured, and the SGS terms of the Favre-filtered Navier-Stokes equations are calculated and analyzed.

Based on n-power velocity and temperature profiles a method of computing various turbulent boundary layer thicknesses and shape factors affected by wall temperature and Prandtl number for fully developed subsonic gas flow over a flat plate is presented. Density variation in the boundary layer is given main consideration. Numerical computations include both heating and cooling of gas. Boundary layer thicknesses and shape factors are shown to be significantly affected by wall temperature and to a lesser degree by Prandtl number. An experiment is described which involved air flow up to 30 m/sec over a flat plate maintained at constant wall temperatures up to 250 C. Comparisons between theory and experiment are good.

Numerical modeling of a turbulent boundary layer on a permeable wall with gas injection is performed. New effects are discovered. It is shown in particular that the wall temperature in the region of the gas film may be lower than the injected gas temperature. This effect is especially essential for gas mixtures with low values of the Prandtl number.
