Transcriber's Notes

Obvious punctuation and spelling errors and inconsistent hyphenation
have been corrected.

Italic text is denoted by _underscores_ and bold text by =equal signs=.

The OE ligature has been replaced by the separate characters.

The fractions ¼, ½ and ¾ are represented using the Latin-1 characters,
but other fractions use the / and - symbols, e.g. 3/8 or 2-5/8.

The exponents 2 and 3 are represented using ² and ³ respectively, but
other exponents are indicated by the caret character, for example,
v^{1·85}

Subscripts are simply enclosed in braces, e.g. W{0}.

Other symbols that cannot be represented have been replaced by words
in braces: {alpha}, {pi}, {therefore}, {square root} and
{proportional to}.

The skin friction formulæ given on pages 11 and 128 have been corrected
by comparison with other sources. Respectively, the formulæ were
originally printed as
_f_ = 0·00000778_l_^{9·3}_v_^{1·85}
and
_f_ = 0·00000778_l_ - ^{00·7}_v_^{1·85}

In ambiguous cases, the text has been left as it appears in the
original book.
