In this lecture, we formally introduce the Kutta-Joukowski theorem. This is a powerful equation in aerodynamics that can get you the lift on a body from the flow circulation, density, and velocity. By taking a deep-dive into the rotating cylinder elementary flow, we derive the Kutta-Joukowski theorem through example.
