2.4 Summary

In this chapter, we derived the governing equations for velocity and vorticity; and we also discussed the boundary conditions on solid walls and vorticity conservation laws. Our next objective is to solve numerically the governing equations for the vorticity and velocity derived in this chapter. Vortex methods are well suited to accomplish this objective since they offer a number of advantages listed in the introduction; we will describe the vortex methods in the next chapter.
