Abstract

A unique stagnation condition is derived as a guide for analysing systems of combined or branched flows through the use of the free-streamline theory and the Schwarz–Christoffel transformation. Moreover, the physical significance of such a condition is illustrated through its application to the analysis of the penetration and deflexion of jets normal to a bounded stream.
