Pohlhausen method Karman

Karman-Pohlhausen method predicts a time for complete solidification which is too small by more than 40%. 

In order to avoid the use of computers, AcrIvos applied the von Karman-Pohlhausen method described by Schlichting (1955). In 1959 Stemling and Scriven began their study of Interfacial turbulence with the following set of equations... 

For turbulent flow on a rotating sphere or hemisphere, Sawatzki [53] and Chin [22] have analyzed the governing equations using the Karman-Pohlhausen momentum integral method. The turbulent boundary layer was assumed to originate at the pole of rotation, and the meridional and azimuthal velocity profiles were approximated with the one-seventh power law. Their results can be summarized by the...
