I treated ##\beta## as the angle the flow leaves w.r.t. the control volume. i.e the flow is coming out of the boat at a constant angle ##\beta## in the frame of the boat. My momentum equations for the angle of that outflow in the ground frame would not be constant. If this is an issue, I'm not seeing it...A.T. said:This makes sense, if I interpret your definitions correctly: ##\beta## is the flow deflection in the ground frame, right?
