2.2.22 · D3 · Physics › Fluid Mechanics › Blasius solution — exact laminar boundary layer solution

Yeh page Blasius solution ke liye ek worked-example gym hai. Parent note ne theory build ki; yahan hum ise har us situation ke against drill karte hain jo exam (ya reality) de sakta hai. Agar koi symbol naya lage, woh parent mein define tha — lekin hum zaroori cheezein yahan bhi re-anchor karte hain taaki aap kabhi na rukein.

Kuch bhi compute karne se pehle, parent ke chaar workhorses pin karo, unke plain meaning ke saath:

Blasius profile symbols ( $η$ , $f$ , $f^{'}$ ) par ek quick word

Example 7 (jo layer ke andar jhaankta hai) se pehle parent ka ek aur idea chahiye. Parent ne dikhaya ki velocity profile har $x$ par identical dikhti hai jab aap height ko clever tarike se measure karo:

Hum ek recurring "house" flow use karenge taaki numbers familiar rahein: air, $ν = 1.5 \times 1 0^{- 5} m^{2} / s$ , $ρ = 1.2 kg/m^{3}$ , jab tak problem kuch aur na kahe.

Example 1 — Cell A: ek interior point par thickness

Worked example Statement

Air ( $ν = 1.5 \times 1 0^{- 5} m^{2} / s$ ) $U_{\infty} = 10 m/s$ par flat plate ke upar. $x = 0.5 m$ par $δ$ nikalo.

Forecast: Layer thickness guess karo — millimetres, centimetres, ya metres? (Boundary layers famously thin hoti hain.)

Step 1 — Reynolds number. $R e_{x} = \frac{U _{\infty} x}{ν} = \frac{10 \times 0.5}{1.5 \times 1 0 ^{- 5}} = 3.33 \times 1 0^{5}$ . Yeh step kyun? $R e_{x}$ master dial hai; iske bina kuch bhi compute nahi ho sakta, aur yeh bhi batata hai ki Blasius legal bhi hai ya nahi (chahiye $R e_{x} ≲ 5 \times 1 0^{5}$ ). Yahan $3.33 \times 1 0^{5} < 5 \times 1 0^{5}$ ✓ laminar.

Step 2 — $δ$ mein plug in karo. $δ = \frac{5.0 x}{R e _{x}} = \frac{5.0 \times 0.5}{3.33 \times 1 0 ^{5}} = \frac{2.5}{577} = 4.3 \times 1 0^{- 3} m$ . Yeh step kyun? Boxed formula master dial ko physical length mein convert karta hai.

Verify: Aadhe metre plate par $4.3 mm$ — slow-zone, travel ki distance ka 116 mein se ek hissa. Thin, as forecast ✓. Units: $\frac{m}{dimensionless} = m$ ✓.

Example 2 — Cell B: ek point par wall shear

Worked example Statement

Same air, same $U_{\infty} = 10 m/s$ . $x = 0.5 m$ par wall shear stress $τ_{w}$ nikalo.

Forecast: Air halka hai. Kya drag pressure atmospheric ( $1 0^{5}$ Pa) ka bada fraction hoga ya tiny?

Step 1 — local friction coefficient. $C_{f} = \frac{0.664}{R e _{x}} = \frac{0.664}{577} = 1.15 \times 1 0^{- 3}$ . Yeh step kyun? $C_{f}$ dimensionless hai aur sirf master dial par depend karta hai — pehle ise compute karo, baad mein un-normalize karo. Yeh "physics ki shape" ko "numbers ki size" se alag karta hai.

Step 2 — dynamic pressure se un-normalize karo. $τ_{w} = C_{f} \cdot \frac{1}{2} ρ U_{\infty}^{2} = 1.15 \times 1 0^{- 3} \times \frac{1}{2} \times 1.2 \times 1 0^{2} = 0.069 Pa$ . Yeh step kyun? $\frac{1}{2} ρ U_{\infty}^{2}$ flow ka natural pressure scale hai; multiply karne se force-per-area ke real units wapas aate hain.

Verify: $0.069 Pa$ vs atmospheric $\sim 1 0^{5} Pa$ — bilkul tiny, as forecast (air drag gentle hota hai) ✓. Units: dimensionless $\times kg/m^{3} \times (m/s)^{2} = kg / (m\cdots^{2}) = Pa$ ✓.

Example 3 — Cell C: plate par total drag

Worked example Statement

Plate length $L = 0.5 m$ , width $b = 0.2 m$ , same air, $U_{\infty} = 10 m/s$ . Ek side par drag nikalo.

Forecast: Tiny stress, chhota area — force newtons mein hoga ya newton ka chhota fraction?

Step 1 — averaged drag coefficient. $R e_{L} = \frac{10 \times 0.5}{1.5 \times 1 0 ^{- 5}} = 3.33 \times 1 0^{5}$ , toh $C_{D} = \frac{1.328}{R e _{L}} = \frac{1.328}{577} = 2.30 \times 1 0^{- 3}$ . Yeh step kyun? Local $τ_{w}$ leading edge par sabse zyada hota hai aur $1/ x$ ki tarah decay karta hai, isliye hum ek point ka stress area se multiply nahi kar sakte. $C_{D}$ plate par $C_{f}$ ka average hai. Factor $2$ kahan se aaya? Average $C_{f}$ matlab $\frac{1}{L} \int_{0}^{L} C_{f} d x$ , aur kyunki $C_{f} \propto x^{- 1/2}$ , integral $\int_{0}^{L} x^{- 1/2} d x = 2 L$ hai, toh average $\frac{2 L}{L} \times (value at L) / L^{- 1}$ hai — constants carry through karne par exactly $\overset{ˉ}{C}_{f} = 2 C_{f} (L)$ milta hai. Isliye $C_{D} = 2 C_{f} (L)$ .

Step 2 — wetted area par un-normalize karo. $F_{D} = C_{D} \cdot \frac{1}{2} ρ U_{\infty}^{2} \cdot (b L) = 2.30 \times 1 0^{- 3} \times 60 \times 0.1 = 0.0138 N$ . Yeh step kyun? Pehle jaisa hi pressure scale, ab plate area $b L = 0.1 m^{2}$ se multiply hua jo fluid actually rub karta hai.

Verify: $0.0138 N \approx 1.4$ grams-force — feather-light, tiny $τ_{w}$ se match karta hai ✓. Cross-check: $C_{D} = 2 C_{f} = 2 \times 1.15 \times 1 0^{- 3} = 2.30 \times 1 0^{- 3}$ ✓.

Example 4 — Cell D: degenerate leading edge, $x \to 0$

Worked example Statement

Same air aur speed. $x \to 0$ par (leading edge par) $δ$ aur $τ_{w}$ ka kya hota hai? $x = 0.5 m$ , $x = 0.05 m$ , $x = 0.005 m$ par trend evaluate karo. (Yaad karo $μ = ρ ν = 1.8 \times 1 0^{- 5} Pa\cdots$ , upar define ki gayi hai.)

Forecast: Plate ne abhi drag karna shuru kiya. Layer yahan sabse moti hai ya pateeli — aur drag sabse halka hai ya tezz?

Step 1 — dono ko pure powers of $x$ mein likho. Boxed $δ = 5.0 x / R e_{x}$ se shuru karo aur $R e_{x} = U_{\infty} x / ν$ substitute karo: $δ = \frac{5.0 x}{U _{\infty} x / ν} = 5.0 x \frac{ν}{U _{\infty} x} = 5.0 \frac{ν x ^{2}}{U _{\infty} x} = 5.0 \frac{ν x}{U _{\infty}} \propto x^{1/2} .$ Isi tarah, upar derive kiye gaye $μ$ -form se, $τ_{w} = 0.332 μ U_{\infty} U_{\infty} / (ν x) \propto x^{- 1/2}$ . Yeh step kyun? Akele $x$ ko square-root ke andar push karne se degenerate behaviour expose hota hai: ek zero se grow karta hai, doosra blow up karta hai.

Step 2 — trend tabulate karo.

$x$ (m)	$δ = 5.0 ν x / U_{\infty}$ (mm)	$τ_{w} = 0.332 μ U_{\infty} U_{\infty} / ν x$ (Pa)
$0.5$	$4.33$	$0.069$
$0.05$	$1.37$	$0.218$
$0.005$	$0.433$	$0.690$

Yeh step kyun? $x$ ko tenfold shrink karne se $δ$ , $10 \approx 3.16$ se shrink hota hai aur $τ_{w}$ usi factor se grow karta hai — dono ek doosre ke mirror hain.

Step 3 — limit lo. Jab $x \to 0^{+}$ : $δ \to 0$ aur $τ_{w} \to + \infty$ . Yeh step kyun? Yeh leading-edge singularity hai: model $x = 0$ par infinite shear predict karta hai. Yeh physical nahi hai — thin-layer assumption $δ ≪ x$ tab break hoti hai jab $δ \sim x$ — lekin yeh sahi tarike se warn karta hai ki drag leading edge par concentrate hota hai.

Verify: $δ$ , $x$ ki tarah scale karta hai ( $x$ mein ÷10 ⇒ $δ$ mein ÷3.16: $4.33/3.16 = 1.37$ ✓), $τ_{w}$ , $1/ x$ ki tarah ( $x$ mein ÷10 ⇒ $τ_{w}$ mein ×3.16: $0.069 \times 3.16 = 0.218$ ✓). Singularity boxed formulas ki genuine feature hai.

Neeche ki figure exactly is table ko do curves ke roop mein plot karti hai taaki aap mirror-image trends aur origin par blow-up dekh sako.

Figure — Blasius solution — exact laminar boundary layer solution

Example 5 — Cell E: pure scaling, koi numbers nahi

Worked example Statement

Ek plate $U_{\infty}$ par test hoti hai. Phir speed chaar guna hoke $4 U_{\infty}$ ho jaati hai, same fluid, same point $x$ . Kis factor se (a) $δ$ change hoga, (b) $τ_{w}$ change hoga, (c) total drag $F_{D}$ change hoga?

Forecast: Faster flow — thinner ya thicker layer? Zyada ya kam drag, aur kitna?

Step 1 — exponents padho. $δ \propto U_{\infty}^{- 1/2}$ (from $δ = 5.0 ν x / U_{\infty}$ ), toh $δ$ , $4^{- 1/2} = \frac{1}{2}$ se change hota hai. Yeh step kyun? Hume sirf chahiye ki har quantity $U_{\infty}$ par kaise depend karti hai; constants ratio mein cancel ho jaate hain. Faster free stream ⇒ inertia zyada jeette hai ⇒ thinner layer.

Step 2 — shear stress. $τ_{w} = 0.332 μ U_{\infty} U_{\infty} / (ν x) \propto U_{\infty}^{3/2}$ , toh yeh $4^{3/2} = 8$ se change hota hai. Yeh step kyun? $U_{\infty}$ ka ek power momentum flux se, steeper wall gradient se aadha power — milke $U_{\infty}^{3/2}$ .

Step 3 — total drag. Pehle note karo $R e_{L} = U_{\infty} L / ν \propto U_{\infty}$ (definition se, $L, ν$ fixed). Toh $C_{D} = 1.328/ R e_{L} \propto R e_{L}^{- 1/2} \propto U_{\infty}^{- 1/2}$ . Phir $F_{D} \propto C_{D} U_{\infty}^{2} \propto U_{\infty}^{- 1/2} U_{\infty}^{2} = U_{\infty}^{3/2}$ , toh $F_{D}$ , $4^{3/2} = 8$ se change hota hai. Yeh step kyun? Hidden speed-dependence $C_{D}$ ke andar $R e_{L} \propto U_{\infty}$ mein rehti hai; usse expose karne ke baad hi powers sahi add hoti hain. $F_{D}$ aur $τ_{w}$ same $U_{\infty}^{3/2}$ law share karte hain.

Verify: $δ$ : $\times 0.5$ ; $τ_{w}$ : $\times 8$ ; $F_{D}$ : $\times 8$ . Sanity: $δ$ down matlab gradient steeper ⇒ zyada shear ⇒ consistent hai ki $τ_{w}$ bada ✓. Numerically $4^{- 0.5} = 0.5$ , $4^{1.5} = 8$ ✓.

Example 6 — Cell F: kya Blasius allowed bhi hai? Transition nikalo.

Worked example Statement

Same air, $U_{\infty} = 10 m/s$ . Kisi distance $x_{tr}$ par flow transition Reynolds number $R e_{x, crit} = 5 \times 1 0^{5}$ tak pahunch jaata hai. Uske aage, kya $δ = 5.0 x / R e_{x}$ valid hai?

Forecast: Guess karo: kitne centimetres, tens of centimetres, ya metres mein turbulence set in hogi?

Step 1 — Reynolds definition invert karo. $R e_{x} = U_{\infty} x / ν \Rightarrow x_{tr} = \frac{R e _{x, crit} ν}{U _{\infty}} = \frac{5 \times 1 0 ^{5} \times 1.5 \times 1 0 ^{- 5}}{10} = 0.75 m$ . Yeh step kyun? Validity boundary ek Reynolds number ke roop mein di gayi hai, toh ise distance mein convert karo jo plate par measure ki ja sake.

Step 2 — formula par verdict. $x > 0.75 m$ ke liye flow turbulent hai; Blasius $δ = 5.0 x / R e_{x}$ ab apply nahi hota. Turbulent estimate $δ / x \approx 0.37 R e_{x}^{- 1/5}$ use karo (dekho Turbulent Boundary Layer). Yeh step kyun? Blasius ek laminar solution hai — ise transition ke baad apply karne par wrong power law ( $x$ vs $x^{4/5}$ ) over-predict hoti hai.

Verify: $x = 0.5 m$ par (Ex 1) hamaare paas $R e_{x} = 3.33 \times 1 0^{5} < 5 \times 1 0^{5}$ tha, safely laminar — consistent, kyunki $0.5 < 0.75 m$ ✓. Recompute: $0.75 \times 10/1.5 \times 1 0^{- 5} = 5 \times 1 0^{5}$ ✓.

Example 7 — Cell G: layer ke andar — $u = U_{\infty} /2$ kahan hai, aur kya $v$ sach mein nonzero hai?

Worked example Statement

Same air, $U_{\infty} = 10 m/s$ , $x = 0.5 m$ par. (a) Kisi height $y$ par velocity free stream ki aadhi hai, $u = 5 m/s$ ? (b) Dikhao ki wahan vertical velocity $v$ zero nahi hai. Upar define kiye Blasius read-offs use karo: $f^{'} = 0.5$ at $η \approx 1.6$ , aur wahan $f \approx 0.65$ .

Forecast: Half-speed height — kya yeh $4.3 mm$ layer ke andar wall ke paas, mid-layer, ya top ke paas hai?

Step 1 — $η$ ko $y$ mein wapas convert karo. Yaad karo (definition block se) $η = y U_{\infty} / (ν x)$ , toh $y = η ν x / U_{\infty}$ . Scale $ν x / U_{\infty} = 1.5 \times 1 0^{- 5} \times 0.5/10 = 8.66 \times 1 0^{- 4} m$ . Phir $y = 1.6 \times 8.66 \times 1 0^{- 4} = 1.39 \times 1 0^{- 3} m$ . Yeh step kyun? $η$ "clever stretched height" hai jo profile ko universal banata hai; real millimetre reading paane ke liye ise un-stretch karna hoga. Kyunki $f^{'} (η) = u / U_{\infty}$ hai, $f^{'} = 0.5$ exactly wahan mark karta hai jahan $u = 5 m/s$ hai.

Step 2 — layer mein locate karo. $δ = 4.33 mm$ (Ex 1), aur $y = 1.39 mm$ , toh half-speed $y / δ = 0.32$ par baith ta hai — roughly ek tihai raaste upar. Yeh step kyun? Confirm karta hai ki profile wall ke paas steep hai: sirf ek tihai height ke baad aadhi speed aa jaati hai, phir $0.99 U_{\infty}$ tak crawl karta hai.

Step 3 — vertical velocity nonzero hai. Parent ka formula hai $v = \frac{1}{2} ν U_{\infty} / x (η f^{'} - f)$ . Plug in karo: root hai $1.5 \times 1 0^{- 5} \times 10/0.5 = 3 \times 1 0^{- 4} = 1.73 \times 1 0^{- 2}$ , aur $(η f^{'} - f) = (1.6 \times 0.5 - 0.65) = (0.8 - 0.65) = 0.15$ . Toh $v = 0.5 \times 1.73 \times 1 0^{- 2} \times 0.15 = 1.30 \times 1 0^{- 3} m/s$ . Yeh step kyun? Continuity fluid ko upar force karti hai jaise layer thickens — ek real, chahe tiny, $v > 0$ . Ise ignore karna (common mistake) mass conservation todta hai.

Verify: $y = 1.39 mm$ , $δ = 4.33 mm$ ke andar hai ✓ (hona hi chahiye). $v = 1.30 \times 1 0^{- 3} m/s$ yani $U_{\infty}$ ka $\sim 1 0^{- 4}$ — small lekin strictly positive ✓. $v$ ke units: $m^{2} / s^{2} = m/s$ ✓.

Figure poora universal profile dikhata hai taaki aap dekh sako ki half-speed itna neeche kyun hai.

Example 8 — Cell H: real-world, alag fluid (water)

Worked example Statement

Ek ship model panel water ( $ν = 1.0 \times 1 0^{- 6} m^{2} / s$ , $ρ = 1000 kg/m^{3}$ ) mein $U_{\infty} = 2 m/s$ par run karta hai. Panel: $L = 0.3 m$ , width $b = 0.5 m$ . (a) Trailing edge par $δ$ nikalo, (b) ek side par drag nikalo. Laminar validity check karo.

Forecast: Water kinematically hamare air se 15× kam viscous hai aur bahut denser. Air se thinner ya thicker layer? Bada ya chhota drag?

Step 1 — Reynolds & validity. $R e_{L} = \frac{2 \times 0.3}{1.0 \times 1 0 ^{- 6}} = 6.0 \times 1 0^{5}$ . Yeh step kyun? Pehle master dial; aur $6.0 \times 1 0^{5} > 5 \times 1 0^{5}$ hai, toh strictly yeh just past laminar transition hai — Blasius sirf estimate deta hai. Hum pehli approximation ke roop mein proceed karte hain aur flag karte hain.

Step 2 — thickness. $δ = \frac{5.0 \times 0.3}{6.0 \times 1 0 ^{5}} = \frac{1.5}{775} = 1.94 \times 1 0^{- 3} m$ . Yeh step kyun? Same boxed formula; low $ν$ ⇒ high $R e$ ⇒ thin layer (≈1.9 mm, length ke relative air ke 4.3 mm se thinner).

Step 3 — drag. $C_{D} = \frac{1.328}{6.0 \times 1 0 ^{5}} = 1.71 \times 1 0^{- 3}$ . Phir $F_{D} = C_{D} \cdot \frac{1}{2} ρ U_{\infty}^{2} \cdot b L = 1.71 \times 1 0^{- 3} \times \frac{1}{2} \times 1000 \times 4 \times 0.15 = 0.514 N$ . Yeh step kyun? Water ki density air se ~800× zyada hai, toh small $C_{D}$ ke bawajood force ab sizeable hai (aadha newton, milli-newtons nahi).

Verify: $\frac{1}{2} ρ U_{\infty}^{2} = 2000 Pa$ ; $b L = 0.15 m^{2}$ ; $2000 \times 0.15 = 300 N \times 1.71 \times 1 0^{- 3} = 0.514 N$ ✓. Dense fluid ⇒ bada drag, as forecast ✓. Caveat: $R e_{L}$ slightly above $5 \times 1 0^{5}$ hai, toh upper-ballpark laminar estimate samjho.

Example 9 — Cell I: exam twist, measured drag se backwards kaam karo

Worked example Statement

Ek wind tunnel mein, ek plate ( $L = 1.0 m$ , $b = 0.4 m$ , air $ν = 1.5 \times 1 0^{- 5}$ , $ρ = 1.2$ ) ek-sided drag $F_{D} = 0.02 N$ record karta hai. Flow speed $U_{\infty}$ nikalo. (Laminar Blasius assume karo.)

Forecast: Inverse problem — force pata hai, cause chahiye. Kya $U_{\infty}$ kuch m/s aayega ya tens of m/s?

Step 1 — $F_{D}$ ko $U_{\infty}$ ke terms mein poora likho. $F_{D} = C_{D} \cdot \frac{1}{2} ρ U_{\infty}^{2} \cdot b L = \frac{1.328}{U _{\infty} L / ν} \cdot \frac{1}{2} ρ U_{\infty}^{2} b L$ . Yeh step kyun? Hum $U_{\infty}$ ko isolate nahi kar sakte jab tak har hidden $U_{\infty}$ (andar $C_{D}$ mein bhi, via $R e_{L} = U_{\infty} L / ν$ !) page par na ho — classic trap yeh hai ki $C_{D}$ speed par depend karta hai yeh bhool jana.

Step 2 — $U_{\infty}$ ka power collect karo. $C_{D} \propto U_{\infty}^{- 1/2}$ aur dynamic pressure $\propto U_{\infty}^{2}$ , toh $F_{D} \propto U_{\infty}^{3/2}$ . Explicitly: $F_{D} = 1.328 \frac{ν}{L} \cdot \frac{1}{2} ρ b L U_{\infty}^{3/2} = 0.664 ρ b ν L U_{\infty}^{3/2} .$ Yeh step kyun? Single power $U_{\infty}^{3/2}$ tak reduce karne se inversion ek clean root-type solve ban jaati hai.

Step 3 — $U_{\infty}$ solve karo. Prefactor $K = 0.664 \times 1.2 \times 0.4 \times 1.5 \times 1 0^{- 5} \times 1.0 = 0.664 \times 1.2 \times 0.4 \times 3.873 \times 1 0^{- 3} = 1.234 \times 1 0^{- 3}$ . Phir $U_{\infty}^{3/2} = F_{D} / K = 0.02/1.234 \times 1 0^{- 3} = 16.21$ , toh $U_{\infty} = 16.2 1^{2/3} = 6.42 m/s$ . Yeh step kyun? $3/2$ exponent undo karne ke liye dono sides ko $2/3$ power tak raise karo — physics ka algebraic inverse.

Verify (forward plug karo): $R e_{L} = 6.42 \times 1.0/1.5 \times 1 0^{- 5} = 4.28 \times 1 0^{5} < 5 \times 1 0^{5}$ laminar ✓. $C_{D} = 1.328/ 4.28 \times 1 0^{5} = 2.03 \times 1 0^{- 3}$ ; $F_{D} = 2.03 \times 1 0^{- 3} \times \frac{1}{2} \times 1.2 \times 6.4 2^{2} \times 0.4 = 2.03 \times 1 0^{- 3} \times \frac{1}{2} \times 1.2 \times 41.2 \times 0.4 = 0.0201 N \approx 0.02 N$ ✓. Round-trip close ho jaata hai.
