A fixed cylinder of diameter D and length L, immersed in a stream flowing normal to its axis at velocity U, will experience zero average lift. However, if the cylinder is rotating at angular velocity 02, a lift force F will arise. The fluid density p is important, but viscosity is secondary and can be neglected. Formulate this lift behavior as a dimensionless function.
