Abstract:
The incompressible flow over a stationary periodically irregular surface and a compact body of revolution is computed by applying a modified discrete source method. The method is tested as applied to the flow over a stationary sphere. Numerical results are presented for flows over a sinusoidal surface, a cycloidal surface, a spheroid, a Chebyshev particle, an “analytical” cylinder, and a half ball.
Key words:Laplace equation, discrete source method, auxiliary sources, analytic continuation of a potential, incompressible flow problem.
