Potential Flows: Basics and Applications

Description

This lecture covers the fundamentals of potential flows, including uniform flow, source/sink, free vortex, and doublet. It also discusses the relationships between velocity components, velocity potential, and stream function. The instructor presents the concept of stagnation points and their significance in understanding lift generation by airfoils. Furthermore, the lecture explores superposition techniques using half-body and Rankine ovals, as well as the flow around a cylinder.
