Abstract
The laminar boundary layer on a rotating thin blade of an axial turbomachine is discussed. A method of deriving the basic equations of the flow for a generalized blade configuration is described, treating a typical blade in practical use as an example. A perturbation technique is applied to obtain a series solution composed of two groups of similar functions. The results give insight into the properties of the boundary layer on helical non-loaded blades in a uniform stream, indicating the influence purely of three-dimensionality of the blade configuration.Keywords
