Aerofoil wake-induced transition characteristics on a flat-plate boundary layer

The boundary layer on a finite flat plate

The problem of finding the flow over a finite flat plate aligned with a uniform free stream is revisited. Multigrid is used to obtain accurate numerical solutions up to a Reynolds number of 4000. Fourier boundary conditions keep the computational domain small, with no loss of accuracy. Near the trailing edge, excellent agreement with first-order triple-deck theory is found. However, previous co...

Stability Analysis for Wake Flow Behind a Flat Plate

Neutral stability limits for wake flow behind a flat plate is studied using spectral method. First, Orr-Sommerfeld equation was changed to matrix form, covering the whole domain of solution. Next, each term of matrix was expanded using Chebyshev expansion series, a series very much equivalent to the Fourier cosine series. A group of functions and conditions are applied to start and end points i...

A Novel Similarity Solution of Turbulent Boundary Layer Flow over a Flat Plate

In this paper, the similarity solution of turbulent boundary layer flow on the flat plate with zero pressure gradients is presented. By employing similarity variables the governing partial differential equations are transformed to ordinary ones with inconsistent coefficients and solved numerically with the use of Runge–Kutta and shooting methods in conjunction with trial and error procedure. Fo...
