Boundary Layer Velocity Distribution
FRICTIONAL RESISTANCE (contd)
25
The velocity distribution at the plane surface depends on
fluid viscosity, density, and the frictional forces.
The frictional resistance vary with the velocity raised to a
certain power n. Prandtl and Schlichting (934) suggested n
as 1.75.

models to be used in experiments in towing tanks
n=1/5 for Surfaces covered with long grass
Flow Separation
FRICTIONAL RESISTANCE (contd)
27
The flow from a solid surface detach due to
Adverse longitudinal pressure/ velocity gradient
Sudden change of the direction of curvature of the
surface
This leads to formation of eddies/ region of reversed flow.
Flow Separation on BL
FRICTIONAL RESISTANCE (contd)
28
The BL remains thin until the condition of flow separation is
reached.
The velocity profile slope at the wall will decrease when the
flow comes near to the point of separation.
At the point of separation the slope becomes zero and
downstream of this point it is negative.
Near the wall in the downstream area the reversal of flow
will occur.
Also, the boundary layer thickens rather quickly.
Reynolds Number Effect on Flow
FRICTIONAL RESISTANCE (contd)
29
Reynolds number determines the flow characteristics.
Very low Rn the flow is nearly a potential one.
As Rn increases the flow tends to separate.
The separation takes place in a periodic way by shedding
von Krmn vorticies. A Krmn vortex street is formed.
As Rn increases further a fully separated flow is
formed.

Negative pressure gradient over the front portion of the

region.
An adverse pressure gradient exists over the rear portion
of the cylinder a rapid growth of the boundary layer and
separation.
The boundary layer becomes turbulent at a still higher Rn.

A single pressure point is traveling in a line over the surface
of the water. It generates waves forming a characteristic
pattern.
The pattern consists of transverse and divergent wave
systems radiating from the point.
The distance between two successive transverse waves
(wave length) depends on the speed of the traveling pt.
The crest lines of the transverse waves will be normal to the
direction of motion, bending back as they approach the
divergent system.

Assumptions:
Wave trains having the same velocity also have equal
wave-lengths and wave periods.
The four wave systems following the ship can therefore
only differ in height and phase.
The phase difference is equal for all particles and is
independent of time
