Abstract
- An exact analytical solution for the velocity field, both interior and exterior, induced by an infinite right-handed helical vortex filament is derived. Due to the way the variables combine in this solution, the paper also shows that it is possible to derive a stream function for this nonaxisymmetric flow. Sample calculations of these expressions are included.
