Ringkasan	The Reynolds-Averaged Navier-Stokes (RANS) equations represent a time-averaged form of the Navier-Stokes equations developed by Osborne Reynolds in 1895. This approach decomposes turbulent flow into mean and fluctuating components, enabling practical simulation of turbulent flows by modeling turbulent stresses rather than resolving all scales. RANS remains the most widely used computational fluid dynamics method in engineering applications due to its computational efficiency.	Boundary Layer Theory is the analytical and approximate framework for understanding viscous flow near solid surfaces, pioneered by Ludwig Prandtl in 1904. The central insight is that at high Reynolds numbers, viscous effects are confined to a thin layer near walls (the boundary layer), while the flow outside remains essentially inviscid. This separation enables powerful approximations: the boundary layer equations reduce the full Navier-Stokes to a parabolic system solvable via streamwise marching, yielding analytical or semi-analytical solutions for many practical cases. Boundary layer theory remains fundamental to aerodynamics, hydrodynamics, and heat transfer.
