Note presenting the von Kármán-Millikan theory of laminar boundary layers as applied to the laminar boundary layer about an elliptical cylinder on which boundary-layer and pressure-distribution measurements. Good agreement is obtained between calculated and experimental results, meaning that the method may be generally applied to the laminar boundary layer about any body provided that an experimentally determined pressure distribution is available.

National Advisory Committee for Aeronautics Collection
The National Advisory Committee for Aeronautics (NACA) was a U.S. federal agency founded on March 3, 1915 to undertake, promote, and institutionalize aeronautical research. On October 1, 1958 the agency was dissolved, and its assets and personnel transferred to the newly created National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA).
The Technical Report Archive & Image Library (TRAIL) identifies, acquires, catalogs, digitizes and provides unrestricted access to U.S. government agency technical reports. The mission of TRAIL is to ensure preservation, discoverability, and persistent open access to government technical publications regardless of form or format.
