See Boundary layer thickness for a more detailed explanation.
2.
Newton s Law of Cooling are combined with the flux term derived above and the boundary layer thickness.
3.
The better characteristic dimension would have been the boundary layer thickness, but fortunately the two dimensions were almost the same.
4.
He found that for Prandtl number greater than 0.6, the thermal boundary layer thickness was approximately given by:
5.
Asymptotic analysis is a key tool for exploring the nondimensional ratio of the boundary layer thickness to a typical lengthscale of the problem.
6.
This boundary layer thickness needs to be as small as possible, since the boundary layer acts as an insulator between the wall and the coolant.
7.
The thermal boundary layer thickness is similarly the distance from the body at which the temperature is 99 % of the temperature found from an inviscid solution.
8.
Based on a Strouhal number of 0.20, the characteristic dimension " ? " was calculated to be near ?inch; the boundary layer thickness.
9.
By using the transient and viscous force equations for a cylindrical flow you can predict the transient boundary layer thickness by finding the Womersley Number ( N _ w ).
10.
Uniform films can be grown by reducing the carrier gas pressure, which will increase the velocity and mean free path of the gas, and as a result boundary layer thickness decreases.
