Air flow over a thin flat plate are shown below for two cases. The velocity profiles and boundary thicknesses are to scail.
For these two situations
the Reynolds number for case A is lower than that for case B.
the Reynolds number for case A is higher than that for case B.
the Reynolds numbers for case A and B are the same.
The average pressure and shear stress acting on the surface of the 1.1-m2 flat plate are as indicated in the figure below. Determine (a) the lift generated,
(b) the drag generated,
(c) the lift if the shear stress is neglected,
(d) the drag if the shear stress is neglected.
Assume p1=-1.1kNm2,1=5.710-2kNm2,p2=2.4kNm2,2=7.610-2kNm2, and =7.
(a)L= kN
(b)D= kN
(c)L= kN
(d)D= kN
