Turbulent boundary layer equations applicable to compressible flow over a surface with longitudinal curvature are evaluated by numerical integration using the tabulated profile data. Curvature corrections to the equation for conservation of streamwise momentum are shown to be small but of the same order of magnitude as the wall shear stress. The data are shown to correlate in law of the wall and velocity defect dimensionless coordinates using an integral compressibility transformation. Values of skin friction coefficient calculated using the experimental data are compared to other experimental data and to values predicted using the Spalding-Chi method. (Author).
