To precede these approximate calculations, mathematical model was developed in order to enable prediction of the main boundary layer integral parameters. The model was proposed to calculate the characteristics of the boundary layers under the effect of local heat transfer and moderate free-stream turbulence levels by enhancing established integral techniques in conjunction with intermittency weighted model of the transitional boundary layer. Empirical relationships for the prediction of the start and end of transition, as well as the development of the boundary layer during the transition region were based on results of experimental investigations. Since the heat transfer coefficient between external flow and surface is extremely influenced by the level of turbulence in the flow, it is also found to be very sensitive to the solid surface temperature and thereby an adequate solution of the thermal boundary layer is required. To satisfy these conditions, the mathematical model included both dynamic and thermal boundary layer equations in integral form. To support the results validation, a numerical investigation utilized Menter el. al [7] model in ANSYS-CFX tool has been represented beside the experimental results.
