Question 1

What defines the boundary layer?

  • A thick fluid layer
  • Thin fluid layer near a solid surface
  • Fluid moving in a straight line

💡 Hint: Consider what happens near surfaces when fluid flows.

Question 2

True or False: Turbulent flow can occur when the Reynolds number is less than 10^5.

  • True
  • False

💡 Hint: Think about the definitions of laminar vs. turbulent flow.

Challenge Problems

Push your limits with challenges.

Question 1

Calculate the Reynolds number for a flow with a characteristic length of 0.5 meters, a fluid velocity of 2 m/s, and a kinematic viscosity of 0.001 m²/s.

💡 Hint: Use the formula for Reynolds number: Re = (L * V) / ν.

Question 2

Explain how boundary layer thickness would change with increasing flow velocity over a flat plate. Describe the physical implications of this change.

💡 Hint: Consider the balance between inertial effects and viscous drag as velocity changes.
