Abstract
The guiding equation here happens to be the Laplacian for
Cylinder, the equation was obtained by using the known definition of differential operator for Cylindrical coordinates (rho,
theta, z), it was then decomposed into three Partial Differential
Equation (PDE) by variable separable methods and solved
independently to obtain the general solution. Finally, contour
plots of the solution describing vortex movement in the interior
region of a closed Cylinder of arbitrary length l were obtained.
