SUBJECT (FLUID MECH 2)
A boundary layer is a thin region (usually along a wall) in which viscous forces are significant and within which the flow is rotational. Consider a boundary layer growing along a thin flat plate. The flow is steady. The boundary layer thickness ? at any downstream distance x is a function of x, free-stream velocity V∞, and fluid properties ? (density) and ? (viscosity). Use the method of repeating variables to generate a dimensionless relationship for ? as a function of the other parameters. Show all your work.
