The components of the liquid velocity q, in the direction of the normal of the ellipse η and hyperbola ξ, are

mJ−1sh(ηα)cos(ξβ), mJ−1ch(ηα)sin(ξβ).
(10)

The velocity q is zero in a corner where the hyperbola β cuts the ellipse α; and round the ellipse α the velocity q reaches a maximum when the tangent has turned through a right angle, and then

q = Qea √(ch 2α−cos 2β) ;
sh 2α
(11)

and the condition can be inferred when cavitation begins.

With β = 0, the stream is parallel to x0, and

φ = m ch (ηα) cos ξ
= −Uc ch (ηα) sh η cos ξ/sh (ηα)
(12)

over the cylinder η, and as in (12) § 29,

φ1 = −Ux = −Uc ch η cos ξ,
(13)

for liquid filling the cylinder; and

φ = th η ,
φ1 th (ηα)
(14)

over the surface of η; so that parallel to Ox, the effective inertia of the cylinder η, displacing M′ liquid, is increased by M′th η/th(ηα), reducing when α = ∞ to M′ th η = M′ (b/a).

Similarly, parallel to Oy, the increase of effective inertia is M′/th η th (ηα), reducing to M′/th η = M′ (a/b), when α = ∞, and the liquid extends to infinity.

32. Next consider the motion given by

φ = m ch 2(ηα) sin 2ξ, ψ = −m sh 2(ηα)cos 2ξ;
(1)

in which ψ = 0 over the ellipse α, and

ψ′ = ψ + 1/2R (x2 + y2)
= [ −m sh 2(ηα) + 1/4Rc2 ]cos 2ξ + 1/4Rc2 ch 2η,
(2)

which is constant over the ellipse η if

1/4 Rc2 = m sh 2(ηα);
(3)

so that this ellipse can be rotating with this angular velocity R for an instant without distortion, the ellipse α being fixed.

For the liquid filling the interior of a rotating elliptic cylinder of cross section

x2/a2 + y2/b2 = 1,
(4)
ψ1′ = m1 (x2/a2 + y2/b2)
(5)

with

2ψ1′ = −2R = −2m1 (1/a2 + 1/b2),
ψ1 = m1 (x2/a2 + y2/b2) − 1/2R (x2 + y2)
= −1/2R (x2y2) (a2b2) / (a2 + b2),
(6)
φ1 = Rxy(a2b2) / (a2 + b2),
w1 = φ1 + ψ1i = −1/2iR (x + yi)2 (a2b2) / (a2 + b2).

The velocity of a liquid particle is thus (a2b2)/(a2 + b2) of what it would be if the liquid was frozen and rotating bodily with the ellipse; and so the effective angular inertia of the liquid is (a2b2)2/(a2 + b2)2 of the solid; and the effective radius of gyration, solid and liquid, is given by

k2 = 1/4(a2 + b2), and 1/4(a2b2)2 / (a2 + b2).
(7)

For the liquid in the interspace between α and η,

φ = m ch 2(ηα) sin 2ξ
φ1 1/4 Rc2 sh 2η sin 2ξ (a2b2) / (a2 + b2)
= 1/th 2(ηα)th 2η;
(8)

and the effective k2 of the liquid is reduced to

1/4 c2/th 2(ηα)sh 2η,
(9)

which becomes 1/4 c2/sh 2η = 1/8 (a2b2)/ab, when α = ∞, and the liquid surrounds the ellipse η to infinity.

An angular velocity R, which gives components −Ry, Rx of velocity to a body, can be resolved into two shearing velocities, −R parallel to Ox, and R parallel to Oy; and then ψ is resolved into ψ1 + ψ2, such that ψ1 + 1/2Rx2 and ψ2 + 1/2Ry2 is constant over the boundary.

Inside a cylinder

φ1 + ψ1i = −1/2iR(x+yi)2a2/(a2+b2),
(10)
φ2 + ψ2i =  1/2iR(x+yi)2b2/(a2+b2),
(11)

and for the interspace, the ellipse α being fixed, and α1 revolving with angular velocity R

φ1 + ψ1i = −1/8 iRc2 sh 2(ηα + ξi) (ch 2α + 1)/sh 2(α1α),
(12)
φ2 + ψ2i = 1/8 iRc2 sh 2(ηα + ξi) (ch 2α − 1)/sh 2(α1α),
(13)

satisfying the condition that ψ1 and ψ2 are zero over η = α, and over η = α1

ψ1 + 1/2 Rx2 = 1/8 Rc2 (ch 2α1 + 1),
(14)
ψ2 + 1/2 Ry2 = 1/8 Rc2 (ch 2α1 − 1),
(15)

constant values.

In a similar way the more general state of motion may be analysed, given by

w = m ch 2(ζγ), γ = α+βi,
(16)

as giving a homogeneous strain velocity to the confocal system; to which may be added a circulation, represented by an additional term mζ in w.

Similarly, with

x + yi = c√[ sin (ξ + ηi) ]
(17)

the function

ψ = Qc sh1/2(ηα) sin 1/2 (ξβ)
(18)

will give motion streaming past the fixed cylinder η = α, and dividing along ξ = β; and then

x2y2 = c2 sin ξ ch η, 2xy = c2 cos ξ sh η.
(19)

In particular, with sh α = 1, the cross-section of η = α is

x4 + 6x2y2 + y4 = 2c4, or x4 + y4 = c4
(20)

when the axes are turned through 45°.

33. Example 3.—Analysing in this way the rotation of a rectangle filled with liquid into the two components of shear, the stream function ψ1 is to be made to satisfy the conditions

(i.) ∇2ψ1 = 0,
(ii.) ψ1 + 1/2Rx2 = 1/2Ra2, or ψ1 = 0 when x = ± a,
(iii.) ψ1 + 1/2Rx2 = 1/2Ra2, ψ1 = 1/2R (a2x2), when y = ± b.

Expanded in a Fourier series,

a2x2 = 32 a2 cos (2n + 1) 1/2 πx/a ,
π3 (2n + 1)3
(1)


so that

ψ1 = R 16 a2 cos (2n + 1) 1/2πx/a · ch (2n + 1) 1/2πy/a) ,
π3 (2n + 1)3 · ch (2n + 1) 1/2πb/a
w1 = φ1 + ψ1i = iR 16 a2 cos (2n + 1) 1/2πz/a ,
π3 (2n + 1)3 ch (2n + 1) 1/2πb/a
(2)


an elliptic-function Fourier series; with a similar expression for ψ2 with x and y, a and b interchanged; and thence ψ = ψ1 + ψ2.

Example 4.—Parabolic cylinder, axial advance, and liquid streaming past.

The polar equation of the cross-section being

r1/2 cos 1/2θ = a1/2, or r + x = 2a,
(3)

the conditions are satisfied by

ψ′ = Ur sin θ − 2Ua1/2r1/2 sin 1/2θ = 2Ur1/2 sin 1/2θ (r1/2 cos 1/2θa1/2),
(4)
ψ = 2Ua1/2r1/2 sin 1/2θ = −U √ [ 2a(rx) ],
(5)
w = −2Ua1/2z1/2,
(6)

and the resistance of the liquid is 2πρaV2/2g.

A relative stream line, along which ψ′ = Uc, is the quartic curve

yc = √ [ 2a(rx) ],   x = (4a2y2 − (yc)4 ,   r = 4a2y2 + (yc)4 ,
4a(yc)2 4a(yc)2
(7)


and in the absolute space curve given by ψ,

dy = − (yc)2 , x = 2ac − 2a log (yc).

34. Motion symmetrical about an Axis.—When the motion of a liquid is the same for any plane passing through Ox, and lies in the plane, a function ψ can be found analogous to that employed in plane motion, such that the flux across the surface generated by the revolution of any curve AP from A to P is the same, and represented by 2π (ψψ0); and, as before, if dψ is the increase in ψ due to a displacement of P to P′, then k the component of velocity normal to the surface swept out by PP′ is such that 2πdψ = 2πyk·PP′; and taking PP′ parallel to Oy and Ox,

u = −dψ/ydy,   v = dψ/ydx,
(1)

and ψ is called after the inventor, “Stokes’s stream or current function,” as it is constant along a stream line (Trans. Camb. Phil. Soc., 1842; “Stokes’s Current Function,” R. A. Sampson, Phil. Trans., 1892); and dψ/yds is the component velocity across ds in a direction turned through a right angle forward.

In this symmetrical motion

ξ = 0, η = 0, 2ζ = d ( 1   dψ ) + d ( 1   dψ )
dx y dx dy y dy
= 1 ( d2ψ + d2ψ 1   dψ ) = − 1 2ψ,
y dx2 dy2 y dy y
(2)


suppose; and in steady motion,

dH + 1   dψ 2ψ = 0, dH + 1   dψ 2ψ = 0,
dx y2 dx dy y2 dy
(3)

so that

2ζ/y = −y−22ψ = dH/dψ
(4)

is a function of ψ, say ƒ′(ψ), and constant along a stream line;

dH/dv = 2qζ,   H − ƒ(ψ) = constant,
(5)

throughout the liquid.

When the motion is irrotational,

ζ = 0,  u = − dφ = − 1   dψ ,  v = − dφ = 1   dψ ,
dx y dy dy y dx
(6)


2ψ = 0, or d2ψ + d2ψ 1   dψ = 0.
