> This oval (called a separatrix) has the special property that no wind flows through it at all. It acts just like a solid surface. We have already assembled a reasonably accurate simulation of how air flows around an ellipse in some confined space like a wind tunnel! My understanding of airflow simulation (undergrad-level at best) is that the correct boundary condition is almost without exception the no-slip one: air should be stationary at the surface of each object, not just have zero flow across it. Am I correct that the calculation mentioned above really only applies to the "dry liquid" scenario where there is no drag and zero viscosity?
