Question 1

What occurs in the transition zone of a boundary layer?

  • Flow remains laminar
  • Flow transitions to turbulent
  • Flow is in equilibrium

💡 Hint: Remember the effects of Reynolds number.

Question 2

True or False: The laminar sub-layer is thicker than the turbulent boundary layer.

  • True
  • False

💡 Hint: Think about the characteristics of these layers.

Challenge Problems

Push your limits with challenges.

Question 1

Consider a flow situation where the Reynolds number is very low. What characteristics would you expect in the boundary layer, and how does this impact shear stress calculations?

💡 Hint: Focus on how the flow regime influences calculations.

Question 2

Analyze a scenario where the boundary layer thickness is measured at a different percentage of free stream velocity. How would this affect your calculations regarding displacement and momentum thickness?

💡 Hint: Consider how changing reference points impacts analysis.
