Exploring the Formation of Vortices: From Kutta Condition to Fluid Dynamics

[QUOTE="boneh3ad, post: 5942147, member: 268837"] Well my main question is whether you are familiar with the vorticity equation or not. Generally, for an incompressible, inviscid fluid, vorticity cannot be created nor destroyed. If a flow is initially rotational, it will remain so, and vice versa. For a compressible, viscous fluid, there can be several sources of vorticity generation, including baroclinicity (nonparallel density and pressure gradients), viscous shear, or rotational body force fields. For the case of an airfoil, the vorticity source is generally going to be viscous shear. [/QUOTE]
