Challenge Problems

Push your limits with challenges.

Question 1

A flat plate has a boundary layer thickness of 0.02 m, with a uniform velocity U of 5 m/s. Calculate the mass flux if the density of the fluid is 1000 kg/m³.

💡 Hint: Use mass flux equation and consider the area of the elemental strip.

Question 2

Given a velocity distribution within the boundary layer defined as u/U = 3y/2δ - y²/2δ² for y in [0, δ]. If δ = 0.1 m, calculate the displacement thickness.

💡 Hint: Set up the integral correctly and evaluate with respect to y.
