One statement named for this scientist states that the circulation of a velocity field for an inviscid and incompressible fluid does not change in time.
One statement named for this scientist states that the circulation of a velocity field for an inviscid and incompressible fluid does not change in time. Along with a German, this scientist names a phenomenon in which adjacent fluid layers are moving at different velocities, producing a shear instability-that phenomenon is named for this man and Helmholtz. This scientist is the second namesake of an effect in which a gas cools isenthalpically--that effect is named for him and Joule. Multiplying a Rankine by 5/9 gives a unit named for this scientist. For 10 points, name this scientist who names a unit of temperature that is zero at absolute zero and is equal to Celsius plus 273.
