Riassunto:

Almost all solutions, so far known, of the problem of exact calculation of the velocity distribution in a boundary layer under the influence of continuous suction pertain to the class of "similar" solutions. One deals, therefore, with individual particular integrals of the boundary-layer equations under special boundary conditions. Compilations may be found, for instance, in H. Schlichting or E. J. Watson. If one disregards the reports using the so-called Pohlhausen methods, thus not yielding rigorous solutions of the boundary-layer equations, there exist only very few investigations which deal with the suction boundary layer for arbitrarily prescribable boundary conditions. Here belongs, for instance, the paper by R. Iglisch which treats the onset of the boundary-layer flow on a flat plate in longitudinal flow with homogeneous suction. On the other hand the case of merely piecewise suction for otherwise impermeable wall which is of extreme interest for practical cases - has so far not been rigorously investigated. The main reason probably is that at the beginning and at the end of every suction region the value of the v velocity component at the wall becomes discontinuous so that all customary calculation methods fail there. In the present report, we shall develop a method, on the example of a jumplike start of suction for arbitrary external pressure distribution and arbitrary suction law - a method which permits the exact calculation of the rapid variations of the velocity distribution (according to boundary-layer theory) near arbitrary flow discontinuities of the kind mentioned.
