JoshTheEngineer | Explained: Ghost Nodes [CFD] @JoshTheEngineer | Uploaded July 2013 | Updated October 2024, 1 hour ago.
In some finite difference/volume equations, you might need to use points that are outside of the actual grid domain. In these cases, ghost nodes can be calculated from the interior points and used for the differences (such as a central difference on a boundary node).

In the previous video (Geometric Integral Iij), we went through the full derivation of the geometric integral for the normal partial derivative, which was needed to solve for the source panel strengths. In this video, we will go through the (very similar) derivation of the tangential partial derivative geometric integral, which is needed to solve for the panel velocities, and thus the panel pressure coefficients.
This derivation is almost exactly the same as the normal geometric integral derivation, but there are some slight differences. Where it is exactly the same, I will refer you back to my other video (Iij) so we dont make this video longer than it needs to be.

In this video I show you how to program a linear interpolation equation into your TI-83 graphing calculator.
If you would like to see how the equation is derived, click the link below to my other video.

Here is the code if you already know how to input it into your calculator:

Input X2=,D
Input X= ,I
Input Y1=,N
Input Y2=,S
Disp (((S-N)/(D-A))(I-A)+N)")

Croccos theorem is needed to obtain the irrotationality condition used later in the overall derivation. The equation is essentially a combination of the momentum and energy equations. The final resulting boxed equation states that the curl of the velocity field is zero, indication an irrotational flow.

The TdS equation is a combined statement of the first and second law of thermodynamics. It relates the entropy, enthalpy, and pressure changes in a system (for the form that we need for Croccos theorem). To keep the big picture in mind, recall that I mentioned that Croccos theorem is a combination of the thermodynamics and kinematics of a flow. This equation gives us the thermodynamics part.")
