IBL, Flat Plate. Apply the integral boundary layer analysis to a flat plate turbulent flow as follows. Assume the turbulent profile u/U = (y/δ)1/6 to compute the momentum flux term on the RHS of IBL, but on the LHS of IBL, use the empirical wall shear stress, adapted from pipe flow: ?w = 0.0233 ⍴U2 (v/Uδ)1/4 where the kinematic viscosity ν = μ/⍴. It is necessary to use this empirical wall shear relation because the turbulent power law velocity profile blows up at the wall and cannot be used to evaluate the wall shear stress. Compute (a) (δ/x) as a function of Rex; (b) total drag coefficient, CD, L as a function of ReL; (c) If ReL = 6 x 107 compare values for this IBL CD,L and those empirical ones given in Table 9.1 for both smooth plate and transitional at Rex = 5 x 105 cases. Note: You must show all the algebra in evaluating the IBL to get full credit. Ans OM: (a) (δ/x) ~ 10-1/(Rex)1/5; (b) CD,L ~ 10-2/(ReL)1/5; (c) CD,IBL ~ 10-3; CD,Smooth ~ 10-3; CD,Trans ~ 10-3
SAE 30 oil at 20 °C flows at 1.8 ft3/s from a reservoir into a6-in-diameter pipe. Use flat-plate theory to estimate theposition x where the pipe wall boundary layers meet in thecenter. Compare with Eq.,
Le/d≈ 0.06 Red laminar
and give some explanationsfor the discrepancy.
