A rectangular plate, whose streamwise dimension (or chord c) is 0.2 m and whose width (or span b) is 1.8 m, is mounted in a wind tunnel. The freestream velocity is 40 m/s. The density of the air is 1.2250 kg/m3, and the absolute viscosity is 1.7894 x 10-5 kg/m s. Plot (not sketch) the velocity profiles at x = 0.0 m, x = 0.05 m, x = 0.10 m, and x = 0.20 m. Calculate the chordwise distribution of the skin friction coefficient and the displacement thickness. What is the drag coefficient for the plate? Be sure to account for both sides of the plate. Ans.: CD = 3.587 x 10-3
