Abstract: An irrotational two-dimensional motion in an inviscid fluid, induced by a line source and a line sink in the region external to two separated and stationary circular cylinders, has been studied in the light of the Earnshaw stream function. When the distance between the centers of the cylinders is sufficiently large compared with their radii, a first approximation to the stream function for the flow pattern in the neighborhood of each cylinder is obtained. The forces and torques acting upon the cylinders then are derived. We give two Tables for the numerical demonstration of the variation of the forces on the cylinders, when one cylinder and the singularities stay fixed at their respective positions and the other cylinder does so at different positions in the flow field.
