Now, we have an alternative way of finding the wall shear stress,
from momentum thickness, rather than from the velocity gradient
at the wall.
Parabolic approximation
To get a numerical result for laminar flow, Karman fitted the actual
2
velocity profile with a parabola: u=abycy
∂u
with b. c.s u=0 @ y=0 ; u=U @ y= and =0 @ y=
∂y
Fitting the parabola to these three boundary conditions gives the
system of three linear equations:
a=0 a=0
