5 Questions
In potential flow of a fluid with a region of vorticity, what can be said about closed curves that enclose the vorticity?
They have the same value for circulation
What does the Kutta–Joukowski theorem in fluid dynamics state about the relationship between lift per unit span (L') and circulation (Γ)?
$L' = k ext{Γ}$, where k is a constant
What is the relationship between circulation and curl or vorticity according to Stokes' theorem?
The flux of curl or vorticity vectors through a surface S is equal to the circulation around its perimeter
What does Stokes' theorem relate about the flux of curl or vorticity vectors through a surface S and the circulation around its perimeter?
The flux of curl or vorticity vectors through a surface S is equal to the circulation around its perimeter
How are curl and vorticity related to circulation per unit area?
They are the same as circulation per unit area
