rojak.turbulence.calculations.magnitude_of_vector(x_component, y_component, is_abs=False, is_squared=False)

Magnitude of vector

Convenience method to calculate magnitude of a 2D vector, i.e. \(\sqrt{x^2 + y^2}\)

Parameters:

• x_component (DataArray) – x-values of vector

• y_component (DataArray) – y-values of vector

• is_abs (bool) – If True, the components of vector is absolute (i.e. \(\sqrt{|x|^2 + |y|^2}\). Defaults to False.

• is_squared (bool) – If True, the components of vector is squared (i.e. \(x^2 + y^2\)). Defaults to False.

Return type:

DataArray
