Similarity Considerations
Boundary Layer Similarity
• As applied to the boundary layers, the principle of similitude is based on
determining similarity parameters that facilitate application of results obtained
for a surface experiencing one set of conditions to geometrically similar surfaces
experiencing different conditions. (Recall how introduction of the similarity
parameters Bi and Fo permitted generalization of results for transient, onedimensional condition).
• Dependent boundary layer variables of interest are:
 s and q or h
• For a prescribed geometry, the corresponding independent variables are:
Hence,
Geometrical: Size (L), Location (x,y)
Hydrodynamic: Velocity (V)
Fluid Properties:
Hydrodynamic:  , 

and
T  f  x, y , L, V ,  ,  , c p , k 
h  f  x , L, V ,  ,  , c p , k 
• Key similarity parameters may be inferred by non-dimensionalizing the momentum
and energy equations.
• Recast the boundary layer equations by introducing dimensionless forms of the
independent and dependent variables.

development? In the turbulent region?

What may be said about transition if ReL < Rex,c? If ReL > Rex,c?
• Effect of transition on boundary layer thickness and local convection coefficient:
Why does transition provide a significant increase in the boundary layer thickness?
Why does the convection coefficient decay in the laminar region? Why does it increase
significantly with transition to turbulence, despite the increase in the boundary layer
thickness? Why does the convection coefficient decay in the turbulent region?

Problem: Turbine Blade Scaling
Problem 6.28: Determination of heat transfer rate for prescribed
turbine blade operating conditions from wind tunnel data
obtained for a geometrically similar but smaller
blade. The blade surface area may be assumed to be
directly proportional to its characteristic length  As  L  .
SCHEMATIC:
ASSUMPTIONS: (1) Steady-state conditions, (2) Constant properties, (3) Surface area A is
directly proportional to characteristic length L, (4) Negligible radiation, (5) Blade shapes are
geometrically similar.
ANALYSIS: For a prescribed geometry,
Nu 

Problem: Turbine Blade Scaling (cont.)
The Reynolds numbers for the blades are
ReL,1   V1L1 /1   15m2 / s 1
Hence, with constant properties
ReL,2   V2 L 2 /  2   15m 2 / s  2 .
 v1  v2  , ReL,1  ReL,2.
Also, Pr1  Pr2 .
Therefore,

COMMENTS: (i) The variation in  from Case 1 to Case 2 would cause ReL,2 to differ from
ReL,1. However, for air and the prescribed temperatures, this non-constant property effect is
small. (ii) If the Reynolds numbers were not equal  Re L,1  Re L 2  , knowledge of the specific form of


f Re L, Pr would be needed to determine h2.
Problem: Nusselt Number
Problem 6.35: Use of a local Nusselt number correlation to estimate the
surface temperature of a chip on a circuit board.
KNOWN: Expression for the local heat transfer coefficient of air at prescribed velocity and
temperature flowing over electronic elements on a circuit board and heat dissipation rate for a 4  4
mm chip located 120mm from the leading edge.
FIND: Surface temperature of the chip surface, T s.
SCHEMATIC:
Problem: Nusslet Number (cont.)
ASSUMPTIONS: (1) Steady-state conditions, (2) Power dissipated within chip is lost by convection
across the upper surface only, (3) Chip surface is isothermal, (4) The average heat transfer coefficient
for the chip surface is equivalent to the local value at x = L.
PROPERTIES: Table A-4, Air (Evaluate properties at the average temperature of air in the boundary
layer. Assuming Ts = 45C, Tave = (45 + 25)/2 = 35C = 308K. Also, p = 1atm):  = 16.69 

ANALYSIS: From an energy balance on the chip,

Newton’s law of cooling for the upper chip surface can be written as
Ts  T  qconv / h Achip

where Achip  .
 
Assuming that the average heat transfer coefficient h over the chip surface is equivalent to the local
coefficient evaluated at x = L, that is, h chip  h x  L  , the local coefficient can be evaluated by
applying the prescribed correlation at x = L.
