Introduction• What’s Boundary layers ?
– A thin layer Appearing on the surface of bodies in viscous flow because the fluid seems to "stick" to the surface.
– A thin layer of fluid with lower velocity than the outer flow develops.

航空宇航学院
• Description of Boundary Layer– No slip condition: the flow at the surface has no relative motion.
– The velocity in the boundary layer slowly increases until it reaches the outer flow velocity, Ue.
– The boundary layer thickness, δ , is defined as the distance required for the flow to nearly reach Ue.
– Take an arbitrary number (say 99%) to define what we mean by "nearly“.
Description of Boundary Layer
6666
航空宇航学院Boundary layer on airfoil.
• Boundary layer along surface of airfoil. – Generally starting out as a laminar flow, the boundary layer
thickens, undergoes transition to turbulent flow, and then continues to develop along the surface of the body, possibly separating from the surface under certain conditions.

航空宇航学院laminar flow
• Laminar flow– Fluid moves in smooth layers or lamina.
– There is relatively little mixing and consequently the velocity gradients are small and shear stresses are low.
– The thickness of the laminar boundary layer increases with distance from the start of the boundary layer and decreases with Reynolds number.
8888
航空宇航学院Turbulent boundary layer
• Turbulent boundary layer– Flow is characterized by unsteady mixing due to eddies at
many scales. The result is higher shear stress at the wall, a "fuller" velocity profile,and a greater boundary layer thickness.
– The wall shear stress is higher because the velocity gradient near the wall is greater.
– The lower velocity fluid is also transported outward with the result that the distance to the edge of the layer is larger.

Effects by viscosity
• Drag
• Pressure Distribution
• Flow Separation
10101010
航空宇航学院Viscous Drag
• Viscous Drag– Skin Friction
Skin friction drag caused by shear stresses at the surface contribute a majority of the drag of most airplanes
We define the skin friction coefficient, Cf, by
The shear stress is then related to the viscosity by:
Cf is related to the drag coefficient by CD (skin friction) = Cf*Swetted/Sref.
where Swetted is the area "wetted" by the air and Sref is the reference area used to define the drag coefficient.
11111111
航空宇航学院
This expression applies to a flat plate.
When the body has thickness, the local velocities on the surface may be higher than the freestream velocity and the skin friction is increased.
We usually write: CD = k * Cf * Swetted / Sref where k is a "form factor" that depends on the shape of the body.
The skin friction coefficient varies with Reynolds number, Mach number, and the character of the boundary layer.

The plot below shows how Reynolds number and the location of the transition from laminar flow to turbulent flow, affects the skin friction coefficient.

– Pressure DragThe presence of the boundary layer creates a pressure or form drag on bodies
In an adverse pressure gradient, the skin friction drag is reduced, but pressure drag increases.
This increase in pressure drag compensates for some of the reduction in skin friction.
Pressure Drag
15151515
航空宇航学院
• Effect of Boundary Layers on Pressures– The presence of the boundary layer changes the effective
shape of the body, leading to changes in the pressure distribution and to the overall lift and drag.
Effect of Boundary Layers on Pressures
16161616
航空宇航学院
– The effective shape can be used to approximate the effect of the boundary layer using inviscid analysis methods combined with the boundary layer equations.
– Outside the boundary layer, the flow behaves much like an inviscid
(and usually irrotational) fluid.
– This leads to changes in the lift, drag, and moment compared with the inviscid solution.
– This change in pressure distribution leads to a non-zero pressure drag in addition to the skin friction drag
– The sum of the skin friction and pressure drag is often termed “profile drag”.
17171717
航空宇航学院
– As the angle of attack changes, the boundary layer shape changes, with thicker boundary layers developing toward the aft part of the airfoil at higher angles of attack (because of the more severe adverse pressure gradients).
– The effective shape of the airfoil thus changes with angle of attack.
– If we look at the mean line of the effective shapes, it is clear that viscous effects cause an effective decambering of the airfoil shape.
18181818
航空宇航学院
– This leads to changes in the lift curve slope (up to a 10% reduction in Cl at Reynolds numbers in the millions) and an aerodynamic center that is usually farther forward than is predicted by inviscidtheory.
– The effect is of increasing importance as Reynolds number is reduced.

• Separation– What is Separation
When the flow near the surface reverses its direction and flows upstream, there must be a place, generally a bit farther upstream, where streamlines meet and then leave the surface.
– Why ?
It’s caused by the presence of an adverse pressure gradient.
– EffectsWhen this occurs, the assumptions that the u component of velocity is larger than the v component and that certain derivatives in the x direction may be ignored, no longer are valid.
Thus, coupling an inviscid analysis with a simple boundary layer calculation does not work.
One must resort to experiment or Navier-Stokes solutions.

• Effects of the separation– The changes in the flow pattern, and associated
forces and moments are large.Drag usually increases substantiallyAirfoil lift usually dropsThe effect is generally Reynolds number dependent.
21212121
航空宇航学院
• Detail explanation about separation– The presence of an adverse pressure gradient (increasing
pressure) causes a deceleration of the fluid. Just as when one coasts uphill, the fluid that starts up the (pressure) hill with little speed, starts rolling backward after a while.
– This picture explains why flow does not separate as readily at higher Reynolds numbers. In that case, the velocity profile is "fuller" with the high external velocities extending down closerto the surface.
22222222
航空宇航学院
– Turbulent boundary layers also have greater velocity near the surface and are therefore better able to handle adverse pressuregradients.
– The laminar boundary layer is more likely to separateWhen this occurs, the laminar boundary layer leaves the surface and usually undergoes transition to turbulent flow away from the surface.
This process takes place over a certain distance that is inversely related to the Reynolds number, but if it happens quickly enough, the flow may reattach as a turbulent boundary layer and continue along the surface.

pressure distributions at low Reynolds numbers.

Basic boundary layer theory• Boundary Layer Thickness
– Boundary layer thickness, δ• This is defined as the y- location where u/ue reaches 99%,
that is the u- velocity becomes 99% of the edge velocity.
– Displacement thickness, δ *• This is a measure of the outward displacement of the
streamlines from the solid surface as a result of the reduced u- velocity within the boundary layer. This quantity is defined as :

• For blunt bodies such as airfoils, the edge velocity ue is zero at x=0, the stagnation point. For sharp nosed geometries such as a flat plate, the momentum thickness θ is zero at the leading edge. Thus, the term in the square bracket always vanishes.
• The integral may be evaluated, at least numerically, when ue is known.

3-D Boundary Layers on Wings
• Spanwise pressure gradients
44444444
航空宇航学院
• Spanwise pressure gradient effects on the boundary layer
The gradients cause the boundary layer to flow outward, piling up tired, slow air near the tips and contributing to premature tip stall.
The streamwise growth of the boundary layer tends to cause early stall near the tips.
45454545
航空宇航学院
The spanwise flow on the wing also tends to createstreamwise vorticity in the boundary layer
This cross-flow instability is very damaging to laminar boundary layers and quickly causes transition to turbulent flow.
Wings with sweep angles in excess of 30 to 40° require some sort of boundary layer control (e.g. suction) to maintain laminar flow.
