Показать описание
This video explains the most important ideas of potential flow theory. Without these it is impossible to understand potential flows. The key ideas are

- Potential flows are always irrotaional
- When a PF is incompressible you get laplace's eqn
- You can combine potential flows

EXCELLENT and GREAT video. I wish I had this CLEAR and SIMPLE explanation to this complex subject of fluid mechanics in my past university years as a M.E. student. Thank you! And keep up your great work.

You should link the next portions of this video to the comments below! Nice explanation; this can be used to establish the assumptions for Transport Phenomena and Fluid Mechanics courses during exams.

Thank You ! I can't believe it is this hard to find an explanaiton of what velocity potential is

Your Explanation is so easy that i decided to solve Navier Stokes Equations 😂.

how do they get the simple flow stream function? any derivation might help

Nice presentation of the potential flow

I don't think you showed that it is incompressible--only that it is equal to the laplace equation.
I think it's because the Potential Flow comes from a complex analytic function (which means real & imaginary parts are harmonic), thus establishing the 0 equality

if a flow is ideal, there is no friction. Hence, the net torque on an object is zero. torque = integral(v.dr). This quantity is zero if and only if v is gradient of a velocity potential so v = del(phi). In real case, for instance, for fully developed flow this is not possible. You cannot get a fully develop flow from gradient of any scalar. You can try yourself.
