Abstract
AbstractThe generalized integral transform technique is applied to the boundary layer equations for flow over a sphere in their primitive variables. Even though a diffusion‐based eigenvalue problem is used, the velocity profile, shear stress and separation point have been calculated with high accuracy. Low‐order approximations are shown to be accurate near the surface and the predictions of the separation point is very good. Comparison with finite difference results shows the better convergence behaviour of the integral transform method.
