What is Understanding Boundary Layer Dynamics about?

The document defines and describes the boundary layer. 1) A boundary layer is a thin layer of viscous fluid close to a solid surface where the flow velocity varies from zero at the wall to the free stream velocity. 2) The boundary layer concept was suggested by Prandtl in 1904 and defines a layer where viscosity effects are important compared to inertia forces. 3) Within the boundary layer, friction forces due to viscous shearing can be large even when the fluid has low viscosity.
