Help with Explicit Integral could not be found
显示 更早的评论
Greetings everyone,
I've had this problem with Matlab a couple of times, where it says : Warning : Explicit integral could not be found. I've read that in order to avoid this message I should solve the integral numerically. Problem is, I don't have any values for my integral (It's a transport phenomena exercice). Here's the code bellow, if anyone can tell me what I'm doing wrong, that'd be awesome.
syms Vz r R k P0 Pl L landa n dvz
M1 = ((P0-Pl)*R)/(2*L);
M2 = (r/R)-(landa*landa*(R/r));
dvz= -(M1*M2)^(1/n);
Vz = int((dvz),r);
I'm trying to have the unsolved integral in order to keep on doing my problem.
Thanks!

You aren't doing anything wrong in terms of finding the integral (I cannot say whether your expressions are correct). The form simply doesn't have a closed-form integral within the constraints you have presented (which is to say, no constraints.) Possibly there is a set of constraints that would allow a closed form -- but I was not able to come up with one.

No, n=0 is not the problem.
When n is an odd positive integer there appears to be a solution involving Legendre, but not for even integers from 4 up
When n is a positive rational, there are some fractions that work out using Legendre and there are some that do not. For example 11/3 works and 11/5 works but not 11/4. It is not as easy as "even denominators do not work" because 11/12 works.
