Ideal Fluid Flow

 

Chapter 11. The complex potential [Graphics:f8.txtgr1.gif] determines an ideal fluid flow around the domain [Graphics:f8.txtgr2.gif] in the first quadrant.

The stream function is

[Graphics:f8.txtgr4.gif][Graphics:f8.txtgr3.gif]

For illustration purposes, choose A = 1.

 

A graph for the solution is:
