1 Inviscid Flow • Inviscid flow implies that the viscous effect is negligible. This occurs in the flow domain away from a solid boundary outside the boundary layer at Re. • The flows are governed by Euler Equationswhere , v, and p can be functions of r and t .
7.1 Inviscid Flow • On the other hand, if flows are steady but compressible, the governing equation becomeswhere can be a function of r • For compressible flows, the state equation is needed; then, we will require the equation for temperature T also.
7.1 Inviscid Flow • Compressible inviscid flows usually belong to the scope of aerodynamics of high speed flight of aircraft. Here we consider only incompressible inviscid flows. • For incompressible flow, the governing equations reduce to where = constant.
7.1 Inviscid Flow • For steady incompressible flow, the governing eqt reduce further to where = constant. • The equation of motion can be rewrited into • Take the scalar products with dr and integrate from a reference at along an arbitrary streamline =C , leads to since
7.1 Inviscid Flow • If the constant (total energy per unit mass) is the same for all streamlines, the path of the integral can be arbitrary, and in the flow domain except inside boundary layers. • Finally, the governing equations for inviscid, irrotational steady flow are • Since is the vorticity , flows with are called irrotational flows.
7.1 Inviscid Flow • Note that the velocity and pressure fields are decoupled. Hence, we can solve the velocity field from the continuity and vorticity equations. Then the pressure field is determined by Bernoulli equation. • A velocity potential exists for irrotational flow, such that, and irrotationality is automatically satisfied.
7.1 Inviscid Flow • The continuity equation becomeswhich is also known as the Laplace equation. • Every potential satisfy this equation. Flows with the existence of potential functions satisfying the Laplace equation are called potential flow.
7.1 Inviscid Flow • The linearity of the governing equation for the flow fields implies that different potential flows can be superposed. • If 1 and 2 are two potential flows, the sum =(1+2) also constitutes a potential flow. We have • However, the pressure cannot be superposed due to the nonlinearity in the Bernoulli equation, i.e.

7.2 2D Potential Flows • If restricted to steady two dimensional potential flow, then the governing equations become • E.g. potential flow past a circular cylinder with D/L <<1 is a 2D potential flow near the middle of the cylinder, where both w component and /z0. U L y x z D
7.2 2D Potential Flows • The 2-D velocity potential function givesand then the continuity equation becomes • The pressure distribution can be determined by the Bernoulli equation,where p is the dynamic pressure
7.2 2D Potential Flows • For 2D potential flows, a stream function (x,y) can also be defined together with (x,y). In Cartisian coordinates, where continuity equation is automatically satisfied, and irrotationality leads to the Laplace equation, • Both Laplace equations are satisfied for a 2D potential flow

7.2 Two-Dimensional Potential Flows • The potential function and the stream function are conjugate pair of an analytical function in complex variable analysis. The conditions: • These are the Cauchy-Riemann conditions. The analytical property implies that the constant potential line and the constant streamline are orthogonal, i.e., and to imply that .
Irrotational Flow Approximation • Irrotational approximation: vorticity is negligibly small • In general, inviscid regions are also irrotational, but there are situations where inviscid flow are rotational, e.g., solid body rotation
