Irrotational - Study guides, Revision notes & Summaries

Here topics about Rotational motion with examples, Vortex line, Bernoulli's Equation (its integration) and motion in irrotational & external forces are discussed.

Solution We are to define internal, external, and open-channel flows. Analysis External flow is the flow of an unbounded fluid over a surface such as a plate, a wire, or a pipe. The flow in a pipe or duct is internal flow if the fluid is completely bounded by solid surfaces. The flow of liquids in a pipe is called open-channel flow if the pipe is partially filled with the liquid and there is a free surface, such as the flow of water in rivers and irrigation ditches.
