The iteration procedure starts using 𝑓0 = 64/Re. From the table f = 0.01356 (2 marks). So, the value
of 𝑝1 is
8.492 170
𝑝1 = 998 × 9.81 (70 + (1 + 0.01356 )) = 2.38 × 106 Pa (1 marks)
2 × 9.81 0.05
3. (6 Marks) A wind tunnel has a square shaped test section with side length equal to 𝐿. Boundary layer
measurements are done along the test section length. At one section, where the free stream speed is
𝑈1 , the displacement thickness is found to be 𝛿1∗ . At another section, located downstream of the first
section, the displacement thickness is found to be 𝛿2∗ . Calculate the change in static pressure 𝑝1 − 𝑝2
between the two sections.
Solution: Let the fluid velocity at section 2 is 𝑈2 then from mass conservation
𝑈1 𝐴1 = 𝑈2 𝐴2
𝑈1 (𝐿 − 2𝛿1 ) = 𝑈2 (𝐿 − 2𝛿2∗ )2 (3 marks)
