The vector and scalar potential formulation for three-dimensional laminar incompressible flow is examined. In problems with through-flow, it is shown that the scalar potential can introduce a spurious discontinuity into the boundary conditions. The result is unacceptable numerical errors. This is illustrated using, for simplicity, two-dimensional Stokes flows. Alternative vector potential-vorticity formulations which eliminate this difficulty are considered.
