Challenge Problems
Push your limits with advanced challenges
You have a fluid flowing over a flat plate with a free-stream velocity of 10 m/s and dynamic viscosity of 0.001 Pa·s. Calculate the boundary layer thickness at a distance of 1m from the leading edge.
💡 Hint: Consider how to use the Reynolds number to find the thickness.
Explain how increasing the fluid temperature might affect the boundary layer thickness and transition point of the flow from laminar to turbulent.
💡 Hint: Think about the effects of temperature on viscosity and fluid behavior.
