• Boundary layer separation — is when the thin layer of viscous fluid leaves the surface of the body that it is flowing over. The viscosity of the fluid causes the boundary layer separation. [Wilcox, David C. Basic Fluid Mechanics. 3rd ed. Mill Valley: DCW Industries, Inc.,… …   Wikipedia

• Boundary-layer thickness — This page describes some parameters used to measure the properties of boundary layers. Consider a stationary body with a turbulent flow moving around it, like the semi infinite flat plate with air flowing over the top of the plate. At the solid… …   Wikipedia

• Boundary layer — For the anatomical structure, see Boundary layer of uterus. Boundary layer visualization, showing transition from laminar to turbulent condition In physics and fluid mechanics, a boundary layer is that layer of fluid in the immediate vicinity of… …   Wikipedia

• Shape factor (boundary layer flow) — A shape factor is used in boundary layer flow to determine the nature of the flow.:H= frac {delta^*}{ heta}where H is the shape factor, delta^* is the displacement thickness and θ is the momentum thickness. Displacement thickness is defined as… …   Wikipedia

• Momentum diffusion — refers to the diffusion, or spread of momentum between particles (atoms or molecules) of matter, usually in the liquid state. In the case of the laminar flow of a liquid past a solid surface, momentum diffuses across the boundary layer which… …   Wikipedia

• Momentum thickness — In aeronautics and viscous fluid theory, the boundary layer thickness ({delta}) is the distance from a fixed boundary wall where zero flow is considered to occur, and beyond {delta} the fluid is considered to move at a constant velocity. This… …   Wikipedia

• Ekman layer — In standard boundary layer theory, the effects of viscous diffusion are usually balanced by convective inertia. When a fluid rotates, however, the dominant balance may instead be struck between diffusion effects and the Coriolis force. Under… …   Wikipedia

• Turbulent Prandtl number — The turbulent Prandtl number (Pr t) is a non dimensional term defined as the ratio between the momentum eddy diffusivity and the heat transfer eddy diffusivity. It is useful for solving the heat transfer problem of turbulent boundary layer flows …   Wikipedia

• Stanton number — The Stanton number, St or CH, is a dimensionless number that measures the ratio of heat transferred into a fluid to the thermal capacity of fluid. It is used to characterize heat transfer in forced convection flows. where h = convection heat… …   Wikipedia
