The two-dimensional flow of a viscous incompressible fluid past a finite flat plate set perpendicularly to the undisturbed flow is studied numerically on the basis of the Oseen approximation. The effect of the flat plate is represented mathematically by a distribution of fundamental singularities and an integral equation for the distribution is solved numerically at values 4, 8, 12, 24 and 96 of the Reynolds number. The corresponding values of the drag coefficient are calculated and compared with those of previous studies.
