Challenge Problems

Push your limits with challenges.

Question 1

A fluid with a non-uniform velocity profile flows over a flat plate. Calculate the displacement, momentum, and energy thickness given the profile: u / U = 3y/delta - y^2/delta^2, where delta is the boundary layer thickness.

💡 Hint: Ensure to handle the limits of integration correctly and apply fundamental calculus
