 Line source in a closed-end semi-infinite strip

In the impermeable strip $x>0$, $0<y<a$, a line source of strength $Q$ at an interior point $c$ has the displayed complex potential of a two-dimensional potential flow, with locally consistent complex logarithm and $f(z)=\cosh (\pi z/a)$. The hyperbolic-cosine map of a half-strip sends the walls to the real axis. An equal image line source at $\overline{f(c)}$ makes that axis a streamline. Since $f^{\prime }(c)\ne 0$, the local singular part remains $Q\log (z-c)/(2\pi )$, proving preservation of strength. With no extra imposed flow, the complex velocity tends to $Q/a$ as $x\to \infty$, so the outgoing volume flux is $Q$. The source position $c$ has positive imaginary part; assuming it real would place it on a wall.
