Explore canonical forms of two-dimensional potential flows in this 45-minute lecture covering uniform flow, free vortex flow, planar extensional flow, source flow, and sink flow. Build upon these fundamental solutions using the principle of superposition to construct more complex flow configurations. Analyze the kinematics of doublet flow and examine its role in modeling flows over idealized bodies such as the Rankine half-body and the Rankine oval. Gain valuable insights into potential flow behavior around solid boundaries in the absence of viscosity through these composite flow field examples.
