Boundary Layer Provides Missing Link Between Theory and Practice Boundary layer, , where viscous stresses (i.e. velocity gradient) are important we’ll define as where u(x,y) = 0 to 0.99 U above boundary.
In August of 1904 Ludwig Prandtl, a 29-year old professor presented a remarkable paper at the 3 rd International Mathematical Congress in Heidelberg. Although initially largely ignored, by the 1920s and 1930s the powerful ideas of that paper helped create modern fluid dynamics out of ancient hydraulics and 19 th -century hydrodynamics. (only 8 pages long, but arguably one of the most important fluid-dynamics papers ever written)
Prandtl assumed no slip condition Prandtl assumed thin boundary layer region where shear forces are important because of large velocity gradient Prandtl assumed inviscid external flow Prandtl assumed boundary so thin that within it p/ y 0; v << u and / x << / y Prandtl outer flow drives boundary layer boundary layer can greatly effect outer outer “inviscid” flow if separates

is at y location where u(x,y) = 0.99 U Because the change in u in the boundary layer takes place asymptotically, there is some indefiniteness in determining exactly.
NOTE: boundary layer is much thicker in turbulent flow. Blasius showed theoretically for laminar flow that /x = 5/(Re x ) 1/2 (Re x = U x/ ) x 1/2 Experimentally found* for turbulent flow that x 4/5
NOTE: velocity gradient at wall ( w = du/dy) is significantly greater. At same x: U/ L > U / T At same x: wL < wT
Note, boundary layer is not a streamline! From theory (Blasius 1908, student of Prandtl): = 5x/(Re x 1/2 ) = 5x/(U/[ x]) 1/2 = 5 1/2 x 1/2 /U 1/2 d /dx = 5 ( /U) 1/2 (½) x -1/2 = 2.5/(Re x ) 1/2 V/U = dy/dx streamline = 0.84/(Re x 1/2 ) dy/dx streamline d /dx so not streamline

FLAT PLATE – ZERO PRESSURE GRADIENT LAMINAR FLOW Blasius Theoretical Solution for u(x,y), (x), * (x), (x) Background
Blasius* (1908) developed an exact solution for laminar flow over a flat plate with no pressure variation. Blasius could theoretically predict: (x), *(x), (x), velocity profile u(x,y)/U vs y/ , and wall shear stress w (x). *(first graduate student of Prandtl)
Blasius* (1908) developed an exact solution but required numerical integration, not good if there is a pressure gradient and not good for turbulent flow hence we develop the momentum integral equation.

By an ingenious coordinate transformation of the boundary layer equation Blasius showed that the dimensionless velocity distribution, u(x,y)/U e, was only a function of one composite dimensionless variable, [y/x][U e x/ ] 1/2. u(x,y)/U e = f([y/x][U e x/ ] 1/2 ) = f( ) = y/ Dimensional analysis = u(x,y)/U e = f (U e x/, y/x)
