Boundary Condition (No Flow Through Surface)

The fluid velocity normal to the airfoil surface must be zero. Mathematically: vn=0\vec{v} \cdot \vec{n} = 0 on the airfoil surface.
📜

The statement of the theorem

The no-penetration boundary condition requires that the fluid velocity v\vec{v} must be tangential to the airfoil surface S\mathcal{S} at all points. If n\vec{n} is the unit normal vector to S\mathcal{S}, the condition is: vn=0on S\vec{v} \cdot \vec{n} = 0 \quad \text{on } \mathcal{S}
