4 cards from this section. Quick, good the night before a test.
Define the term 'Boundary Layer' in fluid mechanics.
Think about what happens to fluid as it flows against a surface.
What is the formula for the Reynolds number?
Recall the terms involved in defining Reynolds number.
What does the wall shear stress depend on?
Think about the physical factors that affect shear stress.
True or False: The turbulent boundary layer grows slower than the laminar boundary layer.
Consider the growth rates discussed during class.
Given fluid flow over a flat plate, derive the expression for average drag coefficient based on the momentum thickness.
Focus on the dimensionless quantities and how they relate to flow dynamics.
If a turbulent flow profile is given and boundary layer thickness increases, discuss implications for drag and energy requirements.
Think about what happens to pressure drop and energy consumption in fluid systems as flow characteristics change.
