With increasing distance y from the surface, the x velocity component of the
fluid, u, must then increase until it approaches the free stream value.
1 when fluid molecules or particles continually collide with and are reflected from the surface.
The momentum of an individual fluid particle will change in response to its collision with the
surface. This effect may be described by momentum accommodation coefficients. We assume
that nano- and microscale effects are not important, in which case the assumption of zero
fluid velocity at the wall is valid.
