Question 2: (12 Marks)
Consider the following laminar boundary layer velocity profile,
dary layer velocity profile, Pa**Sms**m
u(y)=Usin(2y)
Obtain an exact expression for the shear stress 10-3 Pa.s).
Show that a second order finite difference approximation of dudy using forward differencing at a general point yi and step y is given by,
(Use Taylor series expansion to evaluate u(yi+y) and u(yi+2y) to obtain the required expression)
3. Evaluate the shear stress using expression derived in part (2) at yi=0 using y=10-3,10-4 and 10-5.
4. Evaluate the error in calculating the shear stress. Show that the truncation error is proportional to y2.
