![**Assumptions:**
- Atmospheric Pressure (Patm) = \(10^5\) Pa
- Atmospheric Pressure in psi (Pa) = 14.7 psi
- Density of Water (pwater) = 1000 kg/m\(^3\)
- Density of Air (pair) = 1.2 kg/m\(^3\)
- Dynamic Viscosity of Water (\(µ_{water}\)) = \(10^{-3}\) Ns/m\(^2\)
- Dynamic Viscosity of Air (\(µ_{air}\)) = \(2 \times 10^{-5}\) Ns/m\(^2\)
- Kinematic Viscosity of Water (\(V_{water}\)) = \(10^{-6}\) m\(^2\)/s
- Kinematic Viscosity of Air (\(V_{air}\)) ≈ \(1.67 \times 10^{-5}\) m\(^2\)/s
- Gravitational Acceleration (g) = 9.8 m/s\(^2\)
- Speed Conversions:
- 1 m/s = 2.24 mph
- 1 lbf = 4.45 N
- 1 m\(^3\) = 264 gallons
Changing variables, the Integral Boundary Layer (IBL) equation 9.21 can be simplified as:
\[ tW = \rho U^2 \left(\frac{dδ}{dx}\right) \left[\int_0^1 \left(\frac{u}{U}\right)(1 - \frac{u}{U})dη\right] \]
Where \( η ≡ \frac{y}{δ} \), with integral limits from 0 to 1. Assuming profiles of the form \( u/U = f(n) \), the integral value is a pure number. For turbulent IBL:
\[ tW = 0.0233 \rho U^2 \left[\nu/(Uδ)\right]^{1/4} \text{ on LHS} \]
