Abstract

It is well known that the Joukowski transformation plays an important role in physical applications of conformal mappings, in particular in the study of flows around airfoils. We present, for n≥2n≥2, an nn-dimensional hypercomplex analogue of the Joukowski transformation and describe in some detail the 3D case. A generalized 3D Joukowski profile, produced with Maple, is included.
