The Royal Society: Science in the Making

Referee's report by Geoffrey Ingram Taylor, on a paper 'The flow under gravity of an incompressible and inviscid fluid through a constriction in a horizontal channel' by Alfred Maurice Binnie and Stanley George Hooker

Reference number: RR/57/104

Date: November 1936

Description

Sectional Committee: Mathematics

Recommended for publication in the 'Proceedings of the Royal Society of London'. Finds the paper slight. The results are correct but there is not much interest in applying the methods to various flows.
