Abstract
The general nature of the flow at large distances from a two-dimensional body moving uniformly through an unbounded, linearly stratified, non-diffusive viscous fluid is considered. The governing equations are linearized using the Oseen and Boussinesq approximations, and the boundary conditions at the body are replaced by a linearized momentum-integral equation. The solution of this linear problem shows a system of jets upstream and a pattern of waves downstream of the body. The effects of viscosity on these lee waves are considered in detail.
