Uniform flow past a circular cylinder with circulation
Consider the stream function defined as
where is arbitrary, and represents the circulation about the cylinder. The resulting flow is shown in the following simulation, with a cylinder of radius , circulation , and speed . In this case, for convenience, we define the parameter
Observe what happens when you change the values of the parameter .Question 1:
Describe the flow when .
Question 2:
Describe the flow when .
Question 3:
Describe the flow when .
Question 4:
Describe the flow when .
