5.24 Flow of a viscous fluid over a flat plate surface results in the
development of a region of reduced velocity adjacent to the wetted
surface as depicted in Fig. P5.24. This region of reduced flow is
called a boundary layer. At the leading edge of the plate, the veloc-
ity profile may be considered uniformly distributed with a value U.
All along the outer edge of the boundary layer, the fluid velocity
component parallel to the plate surface is also U. If the x direction
velocity profile at section 122is
develop an expression for the volume flowrate through the edge of
the boundary layer from the leading edge to a location downstream
at x where the boundary layer thickness is d.
