The Helical Analog of Irrotational Potential Flow over a Circular Cylinder

P. A. Shestopal, N. V. Saltanov

Abstract

Helical analogs of elementary helical flows: the homogeneous flow and the dipole, are obtained and utilized for writing the helical analog of potential irrotational flow of a circular cylinder. The effect of the helicity factor of helical flows on the streamline patterns and on the pressure coefficient is analyzed.
