Crocco's equation (under our given assumptions) led to an expression regarding the irrotationality of the flow. That is, the flow is free from rotation. Expanding the expression that the curl of the velocity field is zero, another expression relating the velocities flow can be obtained.

Menu items are used in almost every application you use. Some of the more well-known ones are the File and Edit menu items. Menu items can be similarly used in a MATLAB GUI, and this video shows how to program them.")

This is the first video in my 10-video series on coding a program in MATLAB to compute, display, and save a NACA 4-digit airfoil. The series starts right from the beginning, and we work our way to the final code. I explain everything I do, so it should be easy to follow.
IN THIS VIDEO:
We start by opening up a new graphical user interface by typing guide in the command window, and lay out our GUI buttons, boxes, etc. After saving the GUI, we format the resulting m-file for ease of coding in the subsequent videos.
If you havent watched my other videos on the NACA 4-digit airfoil series, I would recommend doing that now.
