Analytical Determination of Irrotational Flow Profiles in Open-Channel Transitions

Transitional free surface flow profiles with a critical point occur with weak vorticity and viscosity effects and thus can be modeled with an irrotational flow approach. Important examples in hydraulic engineering include flow over low obstacles, transition structures in canals, and flow over high s...
