Potential Flow and Method of Images with 3Blue1Brown

Explore the fascinating world of fluid dynamics in this 25-minute educational video featuring Tom Crawford and Grant Sanderson of 3Blue1Brown. Dive into the concepts of potential flow for a 2D incompressible, irrotational, inviscid fluid, starting with common flow fields like uniform flow, stagnation point flow, and line source. Derive potentials for these flows and learn how to apply the method of images to construct velocity fields for various scenarios, including a source next to a wall, a source next to a corner, and an infinite channel. Gain valuable insights into fluid dynamics through this collaborative effort between two renowned mathematics educators, recorded during Grant's visit to Oxford in February 2020.
