Flow past a rotating cylinder can be simulated by superposition of a doublet, a uniform flow and a vortex. The
peripheral velocity of the rotating cylinder alone is given by v at r=R(R is the radius of the cylinder).
A cylinder rotates around its own axis which is perpendicular to the uniform air stream (density 1.24kgm3)
having a velocity of 11ms. The cylinder is 3m in diameter. Find out the speed of rotation of the cylinder
which yields only a single stagnation point on the cylinder.
