Question: Assume the flow conditions given in Example 9.3. Plot (delta, delta^{*}), and (tau_{w}) versus (x / L) for the plate. Data From Example 9.3 Example
Assume the flow conditions given in Example 9.3. Plot \(\delta, \delta^{*}\), and \(\tau_{w}\) versus \(x / L\) for the plate.
Data From Example 9.3

Example 9.3 TURBULENT BOUNDARY LAYER ON A FLAT PLATE: APPROXIMATE SOLUTION USING -POWER VELOCITY PROFILE Water flows at U=1 m/s past a flat plate with L = 1 m in the flow direction. The boundary layer is tripped so it becomes turbulent at the leading edge. Evaluate the disturbance thickness, 8, displacement thickness, 6*, and wall shear stress, Tw, at x = L. Compare with laminar flow maintained to the same position. Assume a -power turbulent velocity profile.
