Question

In the below figure, which of the following flow is shown?

(a) Vortex flow

(b) Uniform flow

(c) Doublet flow

(d) Source flow

The question was asked by my college professor while I was bunking the class.

This intriguing question originated from Uniform Flow in division Inviscid & Incompressible Flow of Aerodynamics

Answer 1

Right option is (b) Uniform flow

To explain I would say: Uniform flow is the one in which each particle in the flow moves in a line with a constant speed. Also, in uniform flow, the flow parameters do not change from time to time. They remain constant throughout the flow.
