• Boundary layer suction — is technique in which an air pump is used to extract the boundary layer at the wing or the inlet of an aircraft. Improving the air flow can reduce drag. Improvements in fuel efficiency have been estimated as high as 30%. The boundary layerThe air …   Wikipedia

• Boundary layer — For the anatomical structure, see Boundary layer of uterus. Boundary layer visualization, showing transition from laminar to turbulent condition In physics and fluid mechanics, a boundary layer is that layer of fluid in the immediate vicinity of… …   Wikipedia

• boundary layer — Physics. the portion of a fluid flowing past a body that is in the immediate vicinity of the body and that has a reduced flow due to the forces of adhesion and viscosity. [1920 25] * * * In fluid mechanics, a thin layer of flowing gas or liquid… …   Universalium

• boundary layer — The layer of fluid, close to the surface of a body placed in a moving stream, in which the impact pressure is reduced as a result of the viscosity of the fluid. A velocity gradient exists through the boundary layer, ranging from the velocity of… …   Aviation dictionary

• Boundary layer control — In aeronautical engineering, boundary layer control (BLC) refers to a number of methods of controlling the boundary layer of air on the main wing of an aircraft. In doing so, parasitic drag can be greatly reduced and performance likewise… …   Wikipedia

• boundary-layer fence — A device to prevent, or at least delay, the boundary layer separation. Shallow fences are fixed axially across the wing to reduce or check spanwise drift of the boundary layer and its consequent thickening and tendency for separation …   Aviation dictionary

• blown-boundary-layer control — A system in which the blown boundary layer uses high velocity air blown through ducts or jets to energize the boundary layer on the upper surface of the wing at low speeds, especially during approach and landing to keep the boundary layer from… …   Aviation dictionary

• Wing fence — Wing fences, also known as boundary layer fences and potential fences are fixed aerodynamic devices attached to aircraft wings. Not to be confused with wingtip fences, wing fences are flat metal plates fixed to the upper surfaces (and often… …   Wikipedia
