This section is based on the laws and theories of physics. The third section (127–207) is devoted to the study of climate changes in Earth’s remote past, insofar as these changes were caused by changes in the amount of solar energy received by the Earth.

The aim of the work was an experimental investigation of a two-dimensional turbulent boundary layer on various models: bodies of revolution at angles of attack 0, 11, 22°, a plate at zero angle of attack, and a wing at a positive angle of attack. As a result of the experiment there were obtained: the pressure distribution over the surface, velocity profiles, the thickness of the boundary layer, friction stress, the line of zero velocities in the region of separation, and displacement-path curves, which agree well with the Nikuradse curve obtained for an internal problem.
