Free-surface flow due to a source submerged in a fluid of infinite depth with two stagnant regions
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 17 February 2009
Abstract
Two-dimensional free-surface flows produced by a submerged source in a fluid of infinite depth are considered. It is assumed that the point on the free surface just above the source is a stagnation point and that the fluid outside two shear layers is at rest. The free-surface profile and the shape of the shear layers are determined numerically by using a series-truncation method. It is shown that there is a solution for each value of the Froude number F > 0. When F tends to infinity, the flow also describes a thin jet impinging in a fluid at rest.
