On second thoughts... Don't!

I just thought you might want to share in the fun and games that is fluid mechanics! Its a really really nice! If you like ridiculously complex integration, stupid formulas and all those weird little letters - what are they all about exactly? What's wrong with the normal alphabet? 26 characters not enough huh?

Well anyway, here is a little derivation for you! It shows what the circulation of a fluid is around an infinitely small area. At least I think it does! Erm... Help!

Nice derivation!

So what is this? Is it English? Nope. Is it French? Non! Is it latin? Uh Uh. In the words of the Legendary Minghi Tan, "It's all Greek to me!"

Oh well. I wonder if they will let me take a book into the exam tomorrow...

Hmmm... lovely fluids! It's actually the derivation of circulation (which is the volume flow rate per unit length around a fixed closed circuit, enclosing a surface S within the fluid region) in polar coordinates as opposed to cartesian coordinate system. Dr Charlie x

I haven't a clue what you geniuses are on about, but i think it's NEWTONS millionth LAW of Fluids. I mean which Law isn't bloody named after him?
