The Kutta Condition according to the thin airfoil theory is_____

(a) γ(c)=0

(b) γ(x)=0

(c) γ(ξ )=0

(d) \(\frac {dz}{dx}\)=0

This question was addressed to me in a job interview.

Right choice is (a) γ(c)=0

The explanation is: The Kutta Condition says the flow leaves the trailing EDGE smoothly. The trailing edge is at CHORD length c for a thin airfoil which gives γ(c)=0. Also, γ(x)=0 or γ(ξ)=0 is not true for all x or ξ. \(\FRAC {dz}{dx}\)=0 is the definition of the symmetric airfoil, not Kutta condition.
