NAVIER-STOKES SIMILARITY SOLUTION FOR THE PLANAR LIQUID WALL JET.

It has been shown that the boundary-layer solution for a liquid wall jet is the large Reynolds number limit of an exact Navier-Stokes solution. That Navier-Stokes solution is a particular case in the class of divergent channel flows and, to the author's knowledge, it is the only pure outflow solution that has a large Reynolds number, boundary-layer counterpart. The boundary-layer result is recovered at R equals 100. The solutions include cases of wall flows toward a sink where the profiles change rapidly with negative Reynolds number. These solutions are related to convergent channel flows.
