โฆ Synopsis
A shear flow interacts with a rotating boundary. The three dimensional Navier-Stokes equations reduce to a set of ninth order, nonlinear, ordinary differential equations which are partially decoupled. Universal similarity velocity profiles are found by numerical integration. If the shear is high enough, reverse flow occurs and the mean drag may be negative. The solution is a rare exact similarity solution of the Navier-Stokes equations.

The perturbation equations which characterize the stability of flow over a rotating infinite disk are derived via strict order of magnitude analysis. These equations contain viscous terms not considered by Stuart,' curvature and Coriolis terms not considered by Brown? and axial velocity terms not co
