Abstract
The wall-jet is the flow of fluid emanating from a narrow slot and blowing over a rigid wall. The configuration of the turbulent wall-jet is that of a very narrow, plane, turbulent half-jet investigated by Liepmann & Laufer (1947). The width of the slot is of the order of the boundary layer on the infinite wall and the jet, in this case, mixes with a stream moving with constant velocity. This flow has drawn considerable basic and applied interest in the past few years for it has the characteristics of both a boundary-layer and a free-mixing flow.Keywords
