Abstract

The work that follows considers the velocity profiles within the boundary layer at the wall of an arbitrarily converging funnel. The occurrence of super-velocities, i.e. components of velocity within the boundary layer exceeding their corresponding free stream component, is investigated and the relevance of such a phenomenon to the efficiency of discharge discussed.
