37. Flow, Circulation, and Vortex Motion.—The line integral of the tangential velocity along a curve from one point to another, defined by
| ∫ ( u | dx | + v | dy | + w | dz | ) ds = ∫ (u dx + v dy + z dz), |
| ds | ds | ds |
(1)
is called the “flux” along the curve from the first to the second point; and if the curve closes in on itself the line integral round the curve is called the “circulation” in the curve.
With a velocity function φ, the flow
