is the relative stream-function, constant over a solid boundary moving with components U and V of velocity.

If the liquid is stirred up by the rotation R of a cylindrical body,

dψ/ds = normal velocity reversed

= −Rx dx− Ry dy,

ψ + ½R (x2 + y2) = ψ′,

a constant over the boundary; and ψ′ is the current-function of the relative motion past the cylinder, but now

V2ψ′ + 2R = 0,
