  • Potential flows are an important class of fluid flows that are incompressible and irrotational. They are found by solving Laplace's equation, which is one of the most important PDEs in all of mathematical physics.

    I look forward to the day when mathematicians mention "flow fields" in a live lecture, and some future variant of Dall-E automatically creates an animated flow field on the screen. Dynamic systems deserve dynamic representation.

    An important fact about harmonic functions (functions that satisfy Laplace equation), is that their sum also satisfies Laplace equation.
    Del^2(f + g) = Del^2(f) + Del^2(g) = 0 + 0
    Since the Laplace operator is a linear operator.

    Love it!
    Question though, doesn’t the potential field still hold for Div * f x Grad V, where “f” is a scalar function? For example, in the standard wave equation, often derived/thought of as a fixed string under tension, the tension is constant. But, for say, a hanging chain, the tension in the chain varies with height and the governing equation involves something like Div * T(x) x Grad U.
    Laplace’s equation and the Laplace operator are really just special cases of the former in a homogenous medium.
    Also, I would LOVE a video about solving Laplace’s equation and the Helmholtz equation (really, finding the Eigenfunctions) on irregular domains. Triangles, or the square with one quadrant removed, etc.
    Thanks for the video!

    Hello, i just watched the two last videos. I'd be great to deal with streamline function, i mean the scalar field which gradient is orthogonal to a given potential vector field. This is very useful to visualize streamlines.

    @Eigensteve Great Series, Dr. Brunton. But why the flow has to be steady? Can't the potential exist at all times?

    Hi Steve, is it correct to assume that divergence free means, colloquially speaking, divergence AND convergence free? In other words, it appears that the term divergence accounts both for expanding and retracting systems?

    • @Eigensteve

    What is counterintuitive with mathematics, is that to be more efficient, variables that we can not intuitively know, have to be used.
    Here, we intuitively understand what is the velocity, but it's better to use another quantity, the potential, that is very abstract.
    The same for the complex space. We don't know what it is, but it's easier tu use it rather than the real space.
