Calculate the atmosphericpressure at the top of the hill.Use the <strong>Bernoulli</strong> equation (valid everywhere) with free stream pressure p 0 at the ground:p o + 1 2 ρU2 ∞ = p + 1 2 ρ(2U ∞) 2 + ρgh⇒ p = p o − 3 2 ρU2 ∞ − ρghStokes stream functionConsider a 2D incompressible flowDefine the stream function Ψ such that:∇ · ū = 0oru = ∂Ψ∂y∂u∂x + ∂v∂y = 0.v = − ∂Ψ∂xThis means∂u∂x + ∂v∂y = ∂2 Ψ∂x∂y − ∂2 Ψ∂y∂x = 0,so continuity is always fulfilled.
