For a wind speed of 20 m/s and air density of 1.25kg/m3, determine the maximum torque this turbine applies on the pivot.

The Blasius boundary layer profile is an exact solution of the boundary layer equations for flow over a flat plate. However, the results are somewhat cumbersome to use, since the data appear in tabular form (the solution is numerical). Thus, a simple sine wave approximation. is often used in place of the Blasius solution, namely, u(y) ≅ U sin (?/2 y/?) for y < ?, and u = U for y ≪ ?, where ? is the boundary layer thickness. Plot the Blasius profile and the sine wave approximation on the same plot, in nondimensional form (u/U versus y/?), and compare. Is the sine wave profile a reasonable approximation?
