Using the integral relations from Problem 19.17, and assuming the velocity and temperature profiles of the form

where δ is the thickness of both the hydrodynamic and thermal boundary layers, show that the solution in terms of δ and vx from each integral equation reduce to

Next, assuming that both δ and vx vary with x according to

show that the resulting expression for δ becomes

and that the local Nusselt number is

Problem 19.17

Show that, for the case of natural convection adjacent to a plane vertical wall, the appropriate integral equations for the hydrodynamic and thermal boundary layers are
