Topic: Fluid Mechanics

Circulation is defined as the line integral of tangential component of velocity about a

  • A. Centre
  • B. close contour in a fluid flow
  • C. velocity profile
  • D. pressure profile

Answer: B. close contour in a fluid flow

Explanation: In fluid mechanics, circulation $\Gamma$ is strictly defined as the line integral of the tangential component of the velocity vector taken around a closed contour in the fluid flow.
