The oblique impact of circular turbulent jets on smooth walls has been studied experimentally and analytically. This type of flow represents a considerable degree of geometric generality since the flow is three-dimensional in its main portion. A semi-empirical inductive method has been developed to predict wall pressures in the shock region. Wall shear stress in the same region has been measured in the plane of symmetry and an analytical method has been presented for its prediction. For the prediction of flow properties in the wall jet region, a theory has been developed that is based on boundary layer approximations of the Reynolds equations of motion and on the similarity of radial velocity profiles. The flow is shown to be quasi-axisymmetric, that is, the flow occurs along radial lines with shear stresses between very small radial planes. The thickness of the wall jet grows linearly in each radial on a universal slope. The local friction factor of the skin remains constant along the radial and, furthermore, it is independent of any other parameter of the problem, except R 0. Moreover, it is shown that a / U 0α1 / (r / d), being the proportionality factor a function of Π and θ.
