Abstract

The gross effect of boundary layer separation on the flow field of stratified flow over a barrier was studied by means of the integral method of Lees and Reeves.

The complete integral formulation of both inner and outer flow field of stratified flow over a barrier was obtained.

Furthermore, an iteration scheme of computation is proposed for the simple case of incompressible homogeneous flow over a barrier with viscous-inviscid interaction included.

However, in viewing the increasing importance, a considerable amount of work remains to be done on this problem.
