4 cards from this section. Quick, good the night before a test.
Define the transition zone.
Think of the area marking a change in flow behavior.
What is the velocity deficit?
Consider what happens when fluid flows past a surface.
What happens in the transition zone?
Recall the types of flow and when they change.
True or False: The laminar sub-layer is independent of viscosity.
Think about what dominates at small scales.
A fluid flows over a flat plate. Calculate the velocity deficit at a point where the local velocity is 0.3 U and U is the free stream velocity.
Consider how local velocities compare to free stream.
Discuss how an increase in plate length would affect the boundary layer development and velocity deficit.
Think of how distance changes interactions in flowing fluids.
