Free Stream Velocity in Flow over Flat Plate Formulas
Free Stream Velocity is defined as at some distance above the boundary the velocity reaches a constant value that is free stream velocity. And is denoted by u
∞
. Free Stream Velocity is usually measured using the Meter per Second for Speed. Note that the value of Free Stream Velocity is always negative.
