Air (p= 1.2 kg/m³, kinematic viscosity v =1.8 + 10-5 m²/s )flows along
a flat plat 3 m long and 1.5 m width with a velocity of 30 km/hr.
1)Find the distance over which the boundary layer is laminar
2) determine the friction drag force and the shear stress at location where boundary
layer is laminar.
Q4) Define the boundary layer, then find the thickness of boundary layer, shear stress, drag force and
coefficiet of drag in terms of Re for the velocity profile of laminar boundary layer u/U=4(y/8)-6(y/8)5.
Calcate the boundary layer thickness and drag force if the air flows over a sharp edged flat plate 1m long
and 0.5m wide at a velocity 0.9m/s, the air density 1.23 kg/m³ and the kinematic viscosity is 1.46*10-5 m/s².
A viscous fluid flows past a flat plate such that the boundary layer thickness at a distance 1.3 m from the leading edge
is 12 mm. Determine the boundary layer thickness at distances of 0.20, 2.0, and 20 m from the leading edge [4.7, 14.9,
47.0 mm]. If U = 0.5 m s-¹, what is the viscosity of the fluid? Assume fully laminar flow. [1.107 x 10-5 m² s-¹]

- IBL, Flat Plate. Apply the integral boundary layer analysis to a flat plate turbulent flow as follows. Assume the turbulent profile u/U = (y/δ)1/6 to compute the momentum flux term on the RHS of IBL, but on the LHS of IBL, use the empirical wall shear stress, adapted from pipe flow: ?w = 0.0233 ⍴U2 (v/Uδ)1/4 where the kinematic viscosity ν = μ/⍴.
