Hi everyone,
In most cfd programs, the limiting streamlines can be plotted on a solid surface which would reveal the critical points (saddles, nodes etc). I was wondering how these points can be interpreted. What do they mean in the 3d flow situation? If you could refer me to a reference that explains these points and their interpretations clearly I'd be very grateful. Nick |
