Thermal Boundary Layer Thickness in Flow over Flat Plate Formulas

Thermal boundary layer thickness is the distance from the solid body at which the viscous flow velocity is 99% of the free stream velocity. And is denoted by 𝛿Tx. Thermal Boundary Layer Thickness is usually measured using the Meter for Length. Note that the value of Thermal Boundary Layer Thickness is always negative.
