Air at 30oC (density=1.165 kg/m3, kinematic viscosity = 16x10-5 m2/s) flows over a flat plate at a free stream velocity of 4.19 m/s. Determine the boundary layer thickness at distances of 0.2m, 0.5 m and 0.8 m. Also determine the skin friction coefficients, both local and average, at these locations.
Atmospheric air is in parallel flow (u∞ = 10 m/s, T = 15°C) over a flat heater surface that is to be maintained at a temperature of
90°C. The heater surface area is 0.25 m², and the airflow is known to induce a drag force of 0.17 N on the heater. What is the electrical
power, in kW, needed to maintain the prescribed surface temperature? Use the modified Reynolds or Chilton-Colburn analogy.
Evaluate properties for the air at 325 K.
