Interactive Quizzes

Engage in quick quizzes to reinforce what you've learned and check your comprehension.

Question 1

What defines the transition zone from laminar to turbulent flow?

  • Increase in temperature
  • Decrease in velocity
  • Increase in Reynolds number

💡 Hint: Consider how fluid characteristics change downstream.

Question 2

True or False: The laminar sub-layer completely eliminates the effects of turbulence above it.

  • True
  • False

💡 Hint: Think about how layers interact rather than eliminate each other.

Challenge Problems

Push your limits with challenges.

Question 1

A plate has a boundary layer with a thickness of 0.02m. Calculate the percentage velocity deficit at a point where the flow is 70% of the free stream velocity.

💡 Hint: Understand the concept of velocity profiles and how they interact with boundary layers.

Question 2

Using the definitions of momentum thickness and energy thickness, derive expressions comparing their values using the same flow conditions.

💡 Hint: Think critically about conservation principles in fluid flow.
