Boundary Layers

Product Description

Boundary LayersThe experimental unit used in the aerodynamics trainer allows the boundary layer on a flat plate to be studied. For this purpose, air flows along the plate, parallel to the surface. The plate has two different surfaces so as to study the effect of surface conditions on the boundary layer. Side bodies can be used in the measuring section. Thus the boundary layer phenomena can experience interference with a degressive or progressive pressure curve and, for example equalise the friction loss of the flow.Learning Objectives And Experiments Internal friction of gasesInvestigation of the boundary layer on the flat plateInfluence of surface roughness on the formation of a boundary layerBoundary layer interference withDegressive/progressive pressure curve Specification Investigation of boundary layers on a flat plate with flow along the plateAccessories for the aerodynamics trainerPlate with two different rough surfacesMoveable plate, along the direction of flowPitot tube for measuring the total pressure at the plateAdjustment of the Pitot tube to the plate using micrometer screwRemovable side bodies for interference of the boundary layer with degressive or progressive pressure profile16 tube manometers for displaying the dynamic pressures
