Two dimensional stream function________________?

Correct answer: B. Is constant along a stream line

  • A. Relates velocity and pressure
  • B. Is constant along a stream line
  • C. Is constant along an equipotential surface
  • D. None of these

Explanation

For two-dimensional flow, the stream function has the same value at every point on a streamline, so a streamline is a constant-ψ line. This property also helps ensure continuity of an incompressible flow.
