these equations may be compared to the equation of the electric potential in a con­ductor, in terms of polar coordinates

It is possible to establish the correspondence with r = r (q) and h = h(q).

The electric tank may be constructed in a circular form, where the center cor­responds to the origin of the (q, $)-plane. The tank radius is limited to a value corresponding to M slightly less than one (for Mach = 1, the depth is infinite). The image of uniform flow is given by a singularity placed at a point, the distance of which from the origin corresponds to the magnitude of the velocity of the uni­form stream at infinity. The singularity is represented in the tank by two electrodes, properly chosen.

To determine the form of the wing section which corresponds to the hodograph chosen, the following relations are used
