Es gibt im Physikunterricht einen klassischen Demonstrations- versuch zur Darstellung einer wichtigen Eigenschaft des Lichts. Ein schmaler Lichtstrahl von einer Lampe oder einem Projektor fallt in ein mit Rauch geftilltes glasernes GefaB. Wir k6nnen den Strahl sehen, da die Rauchpartikeln einen Teil des Lichts nach allen Seiten reflektieren - oder streuen. Auf dem Boden des GefaBes befindet sich eine glanzende, reflektierende Oberflache, z. B. ein Glasspiegel. Wenn nun der Lichtstrahl auf den Spiegel trifft und reflektiert wird, bildet sich deutlich im Rauch ein V mit dem Scheitelpunkt auf dem Spiegel. Sogar ohne genaue Messung k6nnen wir mit ttnseren eigenen Augen sehen, daB es eine ganz ein- fache Beziehung geben muB zwischen dem Winkel, unter dem der Strahl auf den Spiegel auftrifft und dem Winkel, unter dem er den Spiegel wieder verlaGt. Eine senkrecht zum Spiegel gezeichnete (oder gedachte) Linie in der Spitze des V wird die Normale genannt. Wenn wir nun die zwei Schenkel des V in Beziehung zu der Normalen betrachten, wird deutlich, daB der Winkel zwischen dem auftreffenden Strahl und der Normalen gleich dem Winkel zwischen der Normalen und dem reflektierenden Strahl ist. Es wiirde jetzt keine Schwierigkeit bereiten, sich an das Gesetz Einfallswinkel gleich Ausfallswinkel zu erinnern, und, waren wir mit Euklids Geometrie vertraut, mathe- matische Beziehungen zwischen Lichtstrahlen und Oberflachen verschiedener Gestalt auf Grund dieser Gesetze abzuleiten. Aber es besteht ein groBer Unterschied zwischen auswendig gelernten Gesetzen und dem V, das wir mit eigenen Augen sehen k6nnen.

Laminar Flow Theory (Paperback): P.A. Lagerstrom Laminar Flow Theory (Paperback)

Fluid mechanics is one of the greatest accomplishments of classical physics. The Navier-Stokes equations, first derived in the eighteenth century, serve as an accurate mathematical model with which to describe the flow of a broad class of real fluids. Not only is the subject of interest to mathematicians and physicists, but it is also indispensable to mechanical, aeronautical, and chemical engineers, who have to apply the equations to real-world examples, such as the flow of air around an aircraft wing or the motion of liquid droplets in a suspension. In this book, which first appeared in a comprehensive collection of essays entitled "The Theory of Laminar Flows" (Princeton, 1964), P. A. Lagerstrom imparts the essential theoretical framework of laminar flows to the reader. A concise and elegant description, Lagerstrom's work remains a model piece of writing and has much to offer today's reader seeking an introduction to the flow of nonturbulent fluids.

Beginning with the conservation laws that result in the equation of continuity, the Navier-Stokes equation, and the energy transport equation, Lagerstrom moves on to consider viscous waves, low Reynolds-number approximations such as Stokes flow and the Oseen equations, and then high Reynolds-number approximations that are used to describe boundary layers, jets, and wakes. Finally, he examines some compressibility effects, such as those that occur in the laminar boundary layer around a flat plate, both with and without a pressure gradient.
