Question 1

What does the displacement thickness represent?

  • Distance fluid is displaced away from the wall
  • Loss of kinetic energy
  • Increase in flow velocity

💡 Hint: Think about how flowing near surfaces alters the flow structure.

Question 2

True or False: The momentum thickness considers increases in the kinetic energy of fluid.

  • True
  • False

💡 Hint: Recall the function of momentum versus kinetic energy.

Question 1

Given a velocity profile of u/U = 4y/delta, calculate both the displacement thickness and momentum thickness over a flat plate.

💡 Hint: Pay attention to how the velocity profile affects integrals.

Question 2

How would an increase in viscosity affect the displacement thickness in boundary layer flow?

💡 Hint: Think about the effects of increased internal friction on flow behavior.
