Consider a large dirigible (like the Goodyear blimp) with length L = 240 m, and average
diameter D = 40 m moving at a speed U = 135 km/hr at high altitude where the air
density is p = 0.9 kg/m³ and the dynamic viscosity is u = 1.8 x 10-5 N – s/m².
Because of the large size of the blimp and its large radius of curvature the primary forces
acting on it are due to shear stresses at the surface, and the entire surface area can be
approximated by its layout as a flat plate. Determine the drag force acting on the dirigible
due to shear stresses, and the power required for the engine.
In deriving the vorticity equation, we have used the identity V × (VP) = 0.
Show that this identity is valid for any scalar λ by checking it in Cartesian and cylindrical coordinates.

Use the y-momentum equation to show that the pressure
gradient across the boundary layer is approximately zero i.e.
