Abstract

By using analytic tools for 2D rotational inviscid flow, the stagnation points of Pocklington hollow vortices are replaced by Chaplygin cusps, that is, by regions of fluid at rest. By solidifying the bounding free streamlines, solid bodies are obtained along whose walls adverse pressure gradients are avoided. These results are relevant to the theory and practice of control of separated flow at high Reynolds number. Examples are presented pertinent to single bodies and cascade of bodies which trap hollow vortices or generate open hollow wakes.
