Is zero is the initial condition for a flat vortex sheet?(a) True(b) FalseI had been asked this question in an interview.The doubt is from The Vortex Sheet topic in division Incompressible Flow over Airfoils of Aerodynamics

Answer»

Correct option is (a) True

Easiest explanation: The integral form the CAUCHY principal VALUE integral. The initial condition for a flat vortex SHEET with a constant strength is zero. The flat vortex sheet is an EQUILIBRIUM solution. However, it is unstable to infinitesimal periodic disturbance. Hence, with a constant strength flat vortex sheet is used.
