Description:
An integral analysis of the type used to predict the flow of co-flowing jets has been applied to the problem of a sudden enlargement in a pipe (Borda–Carnot expansion). This technique successfully predicts all the overall flow parameters of interest (e.g. reattachment lengths, pressure profile, etc.). The analysis indicates that the downstream conditions (up to reattachment) are insensitive to wall shear and the point of minimum pressure does not coincide with the location of the maximum return-flow velocity. © 1974, Cambridge University Press.
