What is the value of the thickness of the boundary layer at leading edge of the plate?

Physics
1 answer:
Harman [31]1 year ago
7 0

Along the flow direction, the boundary layer's thickness varies. For ReT values between 260 and 780, the boundary layer thickness—defined as the depth at which the normalized concentration has a value of 1/e—ranges between 800 and 250 m.

<h3>What is the Boundary layer?</h3>
  • A boundary layer is the thin layer of fluid that forms immediately around a bounded surface in physics and fluid mechanics as a result of the fluid flowing along the surface.
  • A no-slip boundary condition is created as a result of the fluid and wall interaction (zero velocity at the wall).
  • After that, the flow velocity above the surface steadily rises until it reaches the bulk flow velocity again.
  • The term "velocity boundary layer" refers to the thin layer of fluid whose velocity has not yet recovered to that of the main flow.
<h3>What purpose does a boundary layer serve?</h3>
  • Because it is on the fluid's boundary, engineers refer to this layer as the boundary layer.
  • Many aerodynamics issues, such as wing stall, skin friction drag on an object, and the heat transfer that takes place in high-speed flight, depend heavily on the specifics of the flow within the boundary layer.

Hydroelectricity provides about 7 percent of the electricity generated in the united states. (a) explain how a hydroelectric pow
aivan3 [116]

a. A dam is usually built at the site of hydroelectric power. As water accumulates, its potential power for producing electric power increases. As this water moves downstream from the dam, mostly through a fall, its kinetic energy is harnessed by turbines and converted to electric energy.


b. One factor is the height of the fall of the water from the dam. The higher the height the higher the kinetic energy of the water and hence can be converted to higher electric energy. The higher the number of coils of the turbine generator being rotated by the water, the higher the conversion to electric current.


c. One is impoundment. This type is the most common and involves the building of a dam to store water and later the water is released to turn turbines. The second type is diversion. This type does not require a dam. Some water is diverted from the main river to create a pen-stock that runs a turbine.


d. The advantage of hydroelectric power is that is is a clean energy source hence does not cause global warming. Global warming can have economic consequences. The operating cost of this type of plant is low hence the costs of electricity are able to be kept low for the consumers. 2 disadvantage is that creating a dam upstream causes a change in the physical and chemical characteristics of the river or water bodies affecting ecosystems. Another is that electricity is dependent on the water regime hence dependency is tied to climate.

What are 5 hazards of static electricity?​
Lana71 [14]

Answer:

It is dangerous when there are flammable gases or a high concentration of oxygen. A spark could ignite the gases and cause an explosion. It is dangerous when you touch something with a large electric charge on it. The charge will flow through your body causing an electric shock.

Airida [17]

Answer: H

Explanation:

When beavers dam a stream they slow the movement of water. Behind the beaver dam, a pond of still water is formed. This pond is then colonized by animals and plants that typically live in lakes rather than streams.

Marcia flew her ultralight plane to a nearby town against a head wind of 15 km/h in 2h 20 min. the return trip under the same wi
insens350 [35]

Let the distance between the towns be d and the speed of the air be s.

distance = speed * time

convert the minutes time into hours.

When flying into the wind, ground speed will be air speed MINUS wind speed, hence the against the wind trip is described by:

d

s−15

=

7

3

return trip is then :

d

s+15

=

7

5

Cross-multiplying both we get the two-variable system:

3d=7∗(s−15)5d=7∗(s+15)

3d=7s−1055d=7s+105

subtract first equation from second equation we get

2d=210d=105km

Substitute the value of d in the above equations for s.

5∗105=7s+1057s=420s=60km/hr
