For unit channel width, incompressible flow towards a corner withdrawal point has on the lower wall and on the upper and left walls, with far downstream. For irrotational flow, separation of variables gives the displayed harmonic correction: the Fourier sine coefficients of are . Near the corner, and radial velocity is , whose integrated inward flux across a quarter-circle is .
