A study is made of uniform flow past a semi-infinite flat plate with a similarity injection distribution of boundary-layer magnitude. Attention is focused on a solution at exactly the critical injection rate for which classical boundary-layer theory predicts the blow-off singularity. Following a description of the more recent interaction analyses which also fail at the critical rate, a new theory is developed which leads to physically meaningful results. In particular, it is shown that the non-monotonic variation in wall shear with increasing injection rate near the critical value, noted by Klemp & Acrivos (1972), is real. A delicate interplay of weak pressure interactions and viscous effects is shown to be responsible for this surprising phenomenon.

Order of magnitude considerations are employed to develop boundary layer equations for two phase particle/fluid suspension flows. It is demonstrated that a variety of possibilities exist and three of these are examined in detail. Two are applied to the problem of flow past a semi-infinite flat plate.
