Consider two-dimensional flow in the xy-plane. What is the significance of the difference in value of stream function ? from one streamline to another?
Consider a flow field in polar coordinates, where the stream function isgiven as ψ = ψ(r, θ). Starting with the concept of mass flow betweentwo streamlines, derive your answer.
In your own words,
c. Explain why the stream function ψ is restricted to 2-D flows and you have to use the velocity potential ζ to define 3-D flows.
