Abstract
Irrotational flow is described with the second order elliptic partial differential equation where is the function to be derived and is the Stokes operator. In the present paper we derive the solution of in three axisymmetric system of coordinates: the parabolic, the tangent sphere and the cardioid. We prove that Stokes equation separates variables in the parabolic coordinate system, but it R-separates variables in the other two. At the end of this manuscript we summarize all the known results for the 0-eigenspace of in axisymmetric system of coordinates.
