What Are the Steps for Calculating Boundary Layer Thickness on an Aircraft Wing?
Calculate the thickness of the boundary Layer δ at a location x= 0.3m along the chord length of an aircraft wing at each of the following velocities. (u = 20, 40,60,80,100 knots) Assume ISA P=101325 R=287 T=288.5 μ =18 x 10-6 (1)Re transition=5 x 10^5 (2)δ Laminar = x 4.91 Rex^-0.5 (3)δ...- ra180

Reynolds number calculation for undergraduate
Sorry guys I have been really busy here is my answer. Assuming ISA P= 101325pa ,R= 287 J/kgk and T=288.15K Convert knots into meters per second (1) 20 knots= 10.29/ms, 40 knots =20.58m/s 60 knots= 30.87 m/s 100 knots =51.44 m/s (2) Using the formula R= ρux/μ where (ρ= P/RT) (u= velocity in...- ra180
