Question 1

What occurs in a boundary layer?

  • Fluid velocity is constant
  • Fluid velocity changes from zero to free stream value
  • Fluid is stagnant

πŸ’‘ Hint: Remember how fluid behaves at surfaces.

Question 2

True or False: A laminar boundary layer experiences chaotic flow.

  • True
  • False

πŸ’‘ Hint: Think about the definition of laminar flow.

Challenge Problems

Push your limits with challenges.

Question 1

Calculate the boundary layer thickness for a flat plate with a fluid flowing at a velocity of 5 m/s where the dynamic viscosity is 0.001 Pa.s.

πŸ’‘ Hint: You need to determine kinematic viscosity first.

Question 2

Discuss how engineers can minimize boundary layer separation in aerodynamic structures. Provide a detailed approach.

πŸ’‘ Hint: Think about the shape of an airplane wing or race car.
