Interactive Quizzes

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

Question 1

What happens in the transition zone?

  • Flow becomes laminar
  • Flow becomes turbulent
  • Flow remains steady

💡 Hint: Recall the types of flow and when they change.

Question 2

True or False: The laminar sub-layer is independent of viscosity.

  • True
  • False

💡 Hint: Think about what dominates at small scales.

Challenge Problems

Push your limits with challenges.

Question 1

A fluid flows over a flat plate. Calculate the velocity deficit at a point where the local velocity is 0.3 U and U is the free stream velocity.

💡 Hint: Consider how local velocities compare to free stream.

Question 2

Discuss how an increase in plate length would affect the boundary layer development and velocity deficit.

💡 Hint: Think of how distance changes interactions in flowing fluids.
