Charts for predicting turbulent skin friction from the Van Driest method (2)Charts are presented for rapidly estimating local or average turbulent skin friction on flat plates from Reynolds numbers, based on either length or momentum thickness. These charts facilitate the conversion from one Reynolds number to the other. Ranges of variables covered are: Mach number, 0 to 10; length Reynolds number, 10 to the 5th to 10 to the 9th power; and wall-to-adiabatic-wall temperature ratio, 0.2 to 1.0.
