Fluid 002

Air flows over a 1 meter long flat plate with a velocity of 0.5 m/s. The problem asks to compute and plot the velocity boundary layer for air flowing over the plate and find the velocity distribution at 0.5 meters from the leading edge. Given assumptions include an airflow area of 1m by 0.25m and atmospheric pressure on all faces except the inlet. The velocity boundary layer is plotted using Excel, showing the velocity distribution 0.5 meters from the leading edge.

Prob: Atmospheric air flows over a flat plate

with a velocity of 0.5m/s. Compute and plot


the velocity boundary layer for flow of air over
the plate and find velocity distribution at a
distance of 0.5m from the leading edge.

Assume: the plate is 1 m long.


The arbitrary flow area considered is 1 m by .25 m.
The free stream velocity of the air is 0.5 m/s.
Atmospheric pressure is assumed on all faces except the face
where velocity is input into the system.

Graph plotted using Microsoft Excel (at x= 0.5m):
