Question
Channel flow The flow in a long shallow channel is modeled by the velocity field F = 80, 1 - x29, where R = 51x, y2: _ x _ 1 and _ y _ 56. a. Sketch R and several streamlines of F. b. Evaluate the curl of F on the lines x = 0, x = 14 , x = 12 , and x = 1. c. Compute the circulation on the boundary of R. d. How do you explain the fact that the curl of F is nonzero at points of R, but the circulation is zero?
Solution
The first step in solving 14.4 problem number 66 trying to solve the problem we have to refer to the textbook question: Channel flow The flow in a long shallow channel is modeled by the velocity field F = 80, 1 - x29, where R = 51x, y2: _ x _ 1 and _ y _ 56. a. Sketch R and several streamlines of F. b. Evaluate the curl of F on the lines x = 0, x = 14 , x = 12 , and x = 1. c. Compute the circulation on the boundary of R. d. How do you explain the fact that the curl of F is nonzero at points of R, but the circulation is zero?
From the textbook chapter Green’s Theorem you will find a few key concepts needed to solve this.
