One of the most frequently referenced works in this field is Phil's extensive study of turbulence characteristics in the boundary layer, published as a National Advisory Committee for Aeronautics technical note in 1954. His turbulent boundarylayer data are still used to establish validity of current experiments en cl full numerical simulations in the boundary layer.

. and leading to important applications in coastal and ocean engineering, oil spill travel, submarine waves, liquid and gases in pipes, high speed atmospheric re-entry, nuclear power, and energy conversion." In 1981 he received the APS Prize in Fluid Dynamics "for his careful experimental studies of the turbulent boundary layer, his fundamental contributions to the

In collaboration with his colleagues at the National Bureau of Standards, he contributed to studies of boundarylayer separation en cl the influence of roughness on transition, and with his younger colleagues, magnetohydrodynamics, low Reynolds number effects, and anemometry instrumentation. His last paper, an extensive examination of the development and evolution of boundary-layer turbulence inducecl by a roughness element, was published in the fournal of Fluid Mechanics just before his death.
