Stream function [link]Paper  abstract   bibtex   
The stream function is defined for incompressible (divergence-free) flows in two dimensions – as well as in three dimensions with axisymmetry. The flow velocity components can then be expressed as the derivatives of the scalar stream function. The stream function can be used to plot streamlines, which represent the trajectories of particles in a steady flow. The two-dimensional Lagrange stream function was introduced by Joseph Louis Lagrange in 1781.[1] The Stokes stream function is for axisymmetrical three-dimensional flow, and is named after George Gabriel Stokes.[2]
