For flow over a slightly curved isothermal surface, the temperature distribution inside the boundary layer δt may be approximated by the polynomial T(y) = α + by + cy2 + dy3 (y?

(a) By applying appropriate boundary conditions, evaluate the constants α, b, c, and d.

(b) Then obtain a dimensionless relation for the temperature distribution in the boundary layer.
