Recall that if C is a piece-smooth, simple closed curve and v is a vector field in two dimensions; then
Net outward flux= and Circulation=
The following simulation shows some values of the net outward flux and circulation for and C the circle of radius r (0<r≤3). Instructions:- Drag the center of the circle (left) to change its position.
- Activate animation by clicking on the boxes 'Particles' or 'Fluid'.
- Change the radius by dragging the slider (right-bottom)
