Example
11.33. Suppose that the
lines
are
considered as walls of a containing vessel for the fluid flow
produced by a single source of unit strength located at the
point
and
a sink of unit strength located at the point
. The
conformal mapping
maps
the infinite strip bounded by the lines
onto
the w plane slit along the boundary rays
and
. The
image of the source at
is a source at
,
and the image of the sink at
is a sink at
.
