This MATLAB code numerically solves these Blasius boudary layer problem equations using the Euler method to determine the velocity and temperature profiles of a fluid flow along a flat plate.
The Blasius laminar dynamic and thermal boundary layer problem is governed by the following equations:
(1) 2F'''+F.F''=0, where F is the dimensionless velocity profile function.
(2) 2T''+Pr.F.T'=0, where T is the dimensionless temperature profile function, and Pr is the Prandtl number.
By varying the Prandtl number and other parameters, this code enables users to gain insights into the behavior of different fluids and optimize the design of heat transfer systems.
