A velocity field for a particular flow under consideration is found to be given by:
V = -Ayi + Axj
where A is a positive constant. Find:
- The dimensions of A
- Calculate the individual components of the acceleration field i.c.D
- Find the equation for the streamline passing through a fixed point (xo).
Assume that, in SI units, A = 2.0 and make a contour plot of the streamlines on the range -2.0 < x < 2.0 and -2.0 < y < 2.0. Make sure to plot the direction of the flow along the streamlines.
- Describe in words the nature of the flow field.
