For an external flow like this, one needs to determine where to place the outer boundary. For the flat plate we will use a rectangular domain. The height of the rectangular domain will be determined by the expected boundary layer thickness. For a flat plate boundary layer, one can use the following approximation.



When x = L, Image Removed Image Added = 0.05m. For the height of the domain, ten times the boundary thickness will be used. Thus
