  10. The Basic & Essential Cause for Generation of Lift • The experts advocate an approach to lift by Newton's laws. • Any solid body that can force the air downward clearly implies that there will be an upward force on the airfoil as a Newton's 3rd law reaction force. • From the conservation of momentum for control Volume • The exiting air is given a downward component of momentum by the solid body, and to conserve momentum, • something must be given an equal upward momentum to solid body. • Only those bodies which can give downward momentum to exiting fluid can experience lift ! • Kutta-Joukowski theorem for lift.

  13. THE COMPLEX POTENTIAL Flow past any unknown object can be represented as a complex potential. In particular we define the complex potential In the complex plane every point is associated with a complex number In general we can then write

  14. Now, if the function f is analytic, this implies that it is also differentiable, meaning that the limit so that the derivative of the complex potential W in the complex z plane gives the complex conjugate of the velocity. Thus, knowledge of the complex potential as a complex function of z leads to the velocity field through a simple derivative.

  15. Elementary fascination Functions • To Create IRROTATIONAL PLANE FLOWS • The uniform flow • The source and the sink • The vortex

  16. THE UNIFORM FLOW : Creation of Simple mass & Momentum in Space The first and simplest example is that of a uniform flow with velocity U directed along the x axis. In this case the complex potential is and the streamlines are all parallel to the velocity direction (which is the x axis). Equi-potential lines are obviously parallel to the y axis.

  17. THE SOURCE OR SINK source (or sink), the complex potential of which is • This is a pure radial flow, in which all the streamlines converge at the origin, where there is a singularity due to the fact that continuity can not be satisfied. • At the origin there is a source, m > 0 or sink, m < 0 of fluid. • Traversing any closed line that does not include the origin, the mass flux (and then the discharge) is always zero. • On the contrary, following any closed line that includes the origin the discharge is always nonzero and equal to m.

  18. Iso f lines Iso y lines • The flow field is uniquely determined upon deriving the complex potential W with respect to z.
