Aerodynamic Potential Flow Code - Required Boundary Conditions

Required Boundary Conditions

The velocity potential on the internal surface and all points inside V (or on the lower surface S) is 0.

The Doublet Strength is:

The velocity potential on the outer surface is normal to the surface and is equal to the freestream velocity.

These basic equations are satisfied when the geometry is a 'watertight' geometry. If it is watertight, it is a well-posed problem. If it is not, it is an ill-posed problem.

Famous quotes containing the words required, boundary and/or conditions:

    In properly organized groups no faith is required; what is required is simply a little trust and even that only for a little while, for the sooner a man begins to verify all he hears the better it is for him.
    George Gurdjieff (c. 1877–1949)

    The boundary line between self and external world bears no relation to reality; the distinction between ego and world is made by spitting out part of the inside, and swallowing in part of the outside.
    Norman O. Brown (b. 1913)

    In a country where misery and want were the foundation of the social structure, famine was periodic, death from starvation common, disease pervasive, thievery normal, and graft and corruption taken for granted, the elimination of these conditions in Communist China is so striking that negative aspects of the new rule fade in relative importance.
    Barbara Tuchman (1912–1989)
