  2. Cylindrical harmonics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cylindrical_harmonics

    The cylindrical harmonics for (k,n) are now the product of these solutions and the general solution to Laplace's equation is given by a linear combination of these solutions: (,,) = | | (,) (,) where the () are constants with respect to the cylindrical coordinates and the limits of the summation and integration are determined by the boundary ...

  3. Schlichting jet - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Schlichting_jet

    The problem was formulated and solved by Hermann Schlichting in 1933, [1] who also formulated the corresponding planar Bickley jet problem in the same paper. [2] The Landau-Squire jet from a point source is an exact solution of Navier-Stokes equations , which is valid for all Reynolds number, reduces to Schlichting jet solution at high Reynolds ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Potential_flow_around_a...

    The problem of potential compressible flow over circular cylinder was first studied by O. Janzen in 1913 [4] and by Lord Rayleigh in 1916 [5] with small compressibility effects. Here, the small parameter is the square of the Mach number M 2 = U 2 / c 2 ≪ 1 {\displaystyle \mathrm {M} ^{2}=U^{2}/c^{2}\ll 1} , where c is the speed of sound .

  5. Bickley jet - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bickley_jet

    In fluid dynamics, Bickley jet is a steady two-dimensional laminar plane jet with large jet Reynolds number emerging into the fluid at rest, named after W. G. Bickley, who gave the analytical solution in 1937, [1] to the problem derived by Schlichting in 1933 [2] and the corresponding problem in axisymmetric coordinates is called as Schlichting jet.

  6. Non-dimensionalization and scaling of the Navier–Stokes equations

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Non-dimensionalization_and...

    In fluid mechanics, non-dimensionalization of the Navier–Stokes equations is the conversion of the Navier–Stokes equation to a nondimensional form. This technique can ease the analysis of the problem at hand, and reduce the number of free parameters. Small or large sizes of certain dimensionless parameters indicate the importance of certain ...

  7. Particle in a spherically symmetric potential - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Particle_in_a_spherically...

    The solutions of the Schrödinger equation in polar coordinates in vacuum are thus labelled by three quantum numbers: discrete indices ℓ and m, and k varying continuously in [,): = (,) These solutions represent states of definite angular momentum, rather than of definite (linear) momentum, which are provided by plane waves ⁡ ().

  8. Stokes problem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stokes_problem

    This is considered one of the simplest unsteady problems that has an exact solution for the Navier–Stokes equations. [ 1 ] [ 2 ] In turbulent flow, this is still named a Stokes boundary layer, but now one has to rely on experiments , numerical simulations or approximate methods in order to obtain useful information on the flow.

  9. Parabolic cylinder function - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Parabolic_cylinder_function

    Parabolic cylinder () function appears naturally in the Schrödinger equation for the one-dimensional quantum harmonic oscillator (a quantum particle in the oscillator potential), [+] = (), where is the reduced Planck constant, is the mass of the particle, is the coordinate of the particle, is the frequency of the oscillator, is the energy, and () is the particle's wave-function.
