Prob: Atmospheric air flows over a flat plate

with a velocity of 0.5m/s. Compute and plot

the velocity boundary layer for flow of air over
the plate and find velocity distribution at a
distance of 0.5m from the leading edge.

Assume: the plate is 1 m long.

The arbitrary flow area considered is 1 m by .25 m.
The free stream velocity of the air is 0.5 m/s.
Atmospheric pressure is assumed on all faces except the face
where velocity is input into the system.
