Textbook Question
Chapter 6, Problem 88P
A source and a sink with strengths of equal magnitude, q = 3π m2/s, are placed on the x axis at x = −a and a, respectively. A uniform flow, with speed U = 20 m/s, in the positive x direction, is added to obtain the flow past a Rankine body. Obtain the stream function, velocity potential, and velocity field for the combined flow. Find the value of ψ = constant on the stagnation streamline. Locate the stagnation points if a = 0.3 m.

for the following flows, find the equation of the streamline through(1,1). v= -y^(2)i-6xj
Consider the flow field formed by combining a uniform flow in the positive
x direction and a source located at the origin. Let U= 30 m/s and m = 150 m²/s. Plot
the ratio of local velocity to the freestream velocity as a function of 0 along the
stagnation streamline. Locate the points on the stagnation streamline where the
velocity reaches its maximum value. Find the gage pressure there if the fluid density
is 1.2 kg/m³.
