About this document

Convergence Acceleration in Boundary Layer Solutions by Raman Balu is a document available to read on EtoBox.

This document presents a new algorithm for highly accurate solutions of the Falkner-Skan boundary layer equations. The algorithm is based on representing the solution as a Maclaurin series, with coefficients found from recurrence relations. Wynn-epsilon convergence acceleration and continuous analytical continuation are used to evaluate the series accurately without enhanced precision arithmetic. Comparisons to past literature values show the new algorithm provides the most accurate skin friction coefficien
