Potential Flow

Irrotational flow for which implies:
This allows you to decompose velocity into a scalar

potential such that:

Combined with conservation of mass (continuity) and

incompressibility you can obtain:

Or allowing for compressibility:
Both these cases were attempted.

Running Code

To run compressible flow calculator run

compflow.m in matlab/octave.

To run the incompressible solver that visualizes
