AN APPLICATION OF THE VON KARMAN-MILLIKAN LAMINAR BOUNDARY-LAYER THEORY AND COMPARISON WITH EXPERIMENT
A 1935 NACA-era technical report by NASA's Technical Reports Server on applying the von Karman-Millikan laminar boundary-layer theory and comparing it with experiment. Its pictures are engineering graphs: plotted curves of boundary-layer functions and velocity profiles, with experimental data points overlaid on theoretical lines. A designer could take from them the clean plotting conventions of mid-century technical charts, with dashed and solid curves, open circles and crosses for measured points, and fine grid paper.
