A flow field is formed by combining a uniform flow field of 10m/s and a vortex withstrength Γ=4pi m2 /s located at the origin. Find the location of the stagnation point and theequation of the dividing streamline. What are the velocity and pressure coefficients at a pointwith (r,theta)=(1,pi/2)?
Plot the streamlines and potential lines of the flow due to aline source of strength 3m at (a, 0) plus a sink -m at(-a, 0). What is the pattern viewed from afar?
Water at 20°C flows past a 1-m-diameter circular cylinder.The upstream centerline pressure is 128,500 Pa. If the lowestpressure on the cylinder surface is exactly the vaporpressure, estimate, by potential theory, the stream velocity.
