Chapter 5, Problem 54P
Consider the two-dimensional flow field in which u = Ax2 and υ = Bxy, where A = 1/2 ft-1·s−l, B = − 1 ft−1·s−l, and the coordinates are measured in feet. Show that the velocity field represents a possible incompressible flow. Determine the rotation at point (x, y) = (1, 1). Evaluate the circulation about the “curve” bounded by y = 0, x = 1, y = 1, and x = 0.

1. For a flow in the xy-plane, the y-component of velocity is given by v = y2 −2x+ 2y. Find a possible x-component for steady, incompressible flow. Is it also valid for unsteady, incompressible flow? Why? 2. The x-component of velocity in a steady, incompressible flow field in the xy-plane is u = A/x. Find the simplest y-component of velocity for this flow field.
