BPM_boundary_layer_properties(R_c, c, alpha_star)[source]#

This computes the boundary layer properties using the method outlined by the Brooks, Pope and Marcolini (BPM) Model

Assumptions:

BPM models assumes a naca 0012 airfol

Inputs:

a lpha_star - adjustd angle of attack [deg] c - airfoil section chord [m] R_c - Reynolds number [-]

Outputs

boundary layer properties [-]
