Abstract
⺠We extend the point vortex model to include sources and sinks. ⺠Vortex strengths are also allowed to be functions of position. ⺠A Noether-type conservation law is proved for such systems. ⺠Exact solutions with piecewise constant vortex strengths show optical analogies.⺠Numerical methods employed to study systems with piecewise linear strength functions.
