1. A hydrofoil 1.4 ft long and 6 ft wide is put in 50°F water flowing at 30 ft/s. Estimate the boundary layer thickness at the end of the plate.

2. Estimate the drag force on the hydrofoil described in Problem 14.8 assuming turbulent flow from the leading edge.

Problem 14.8

A hydrofoil 1.4 ft long and 6 ft wide is put in 50°F water flowing at 30 ft/s. Estimate the boundary layer thickness at the end of the plate.
