Challenge Problems

Push your limits with challenges.

Question 1

Calculate the boundary layer thickness for a flat plate in a wind tunnel with a uniform speed of 4 m/s assuming kinematic viscosity is 1.5 × 10^-5 m²/s.

💡 Hint: Evaluate Reynolds number first.

Question 2

Given a momentum thickness of 0.002m, how much momentum deficit does this indicate for the flow?

💡 Hint: Consider averaging the velocity profile.
