Question 1

What is the boundary layer?

  • A thick region of laminar flow
  • A thin layer of fluid with significant viscosity effects
  • An inviscid layer of fluid

💡 Hint: Think about how fluid behaves near a solid surface.

Question 2

True or False: In the boundary layer, viscous forces are negligible.

  • True
  • False

💡 Hint: Recall the definition of the boundary layer.

Challenge Problems

Push your limits with challenges.

Question 1

Calculate the boundary layer thickness for water flowing over a flat plate with a surface speed of 2 m/s and a kinematic viscosity of 1 × 10^-6 m²/s after a distance of 1 meter.

💡 Hint: Start by determining the Reynolds number first.

Question 2

Discuss how changes in surface texture can influence the boundary layer development on a hydraulic structure.

💡 Hint: Consider surface characteristics and their effects on flow.
