Select the WRONG statement regarding the factors that influence the thickness of the boundary layer formation along a flat smooth plate.
- 1The boundary layer thickness is considerably affected by the pressure gradient in the direction of flow.
- 2The boundary layer thickness decreases with the increase in the velocity of flow of the approaching stream of fluid.
- 3The boundary layer thickness decreases as the distance from the leading edge increases.✓
- 4Greater is the kinematic viscosity of the fluid, greater is the boundary layer thickness.
Correct answer
The boundary layer thickness decreases as the distance from the leading edge increases.
