helmholtz flow
1Helmholtz resonance — is the phenomenon of air resonance in a cavity. The name comes from a device created in the 1850s by Hermann von Helmholtz to show the height of the various tones. An example of Helmholtz resonance is the sound created when one blows across the… …
3Helmholtz's theorems — In fluid mechanics, Helmholtz s theorems describe the three dimensional motion of fluid in the vicinity of vortex filaments. These theorems apply to inviscid flows and flows where the influence of viscous forces is small and can be… …
