## What is Reynolds number in boundary layer flow?

The Reynolds number is the ratio of inertial forces to viscous forces within a fluid that is subjected to relative internal movement due to different fluid velocities. A region where these forces change behavior is known as a boundary layer, such as the bounding surface in the interior of a pipe.

## What is boundary layer flow?

A boundary layer flow is defined to be the region of a larger flow field that is next to the surface and has significant effects on wall frictional forces. Since the region of interest is near the surface and the surface is assumed to be impervious to the flow then the velocity is nearly parallel to the surface.
