Air at 100 kPa and 300 K blows over thin, smooth plate at 2 m/s. For this case you will compute boundary layer characteristics at the plate midpoint (x = 0.5 m) and trailing edge (x = 1.0 m). At both locations compute: a) the boundary layer thickness (mm), b) the distance from the plate surface (y) where the velocity of the air is 1 m/s (mm), c) the velocity of the air 5 mm above the plate surface (m/s), d) the local shear stress (N/m). Compute the total drag force on the plate assuming boundary layer flow on both top and bottom surfaces. Air, 2 m/s 100 kPa, 300 K 1 m Air at 100 kPa and 300 K blows over thin, smooth plate at 2 m/s.
