    "abstract": "A loss in circulation is sometimes cited in connection with bluff-body wakes\nas a result of comparing the circulation actually observed downstream with a\nwell-known theoretical estimate of the total circulation generated by a\ncylinder. In an effort to better understand this reported loss in circulation,\nan alternative estimate of the circulation generated by a cylinder is derived\nby integrating the velocity on a closed loop containing the attached boundary\nlayer. Predictions of the dimensionless circulation for a cylinder in cross\nflow are less than the previous theoretical estimate and agree with observed\nvalues. This suggests that the total circulation generated by bluff bodies may\nhave been overestimated in the past, and that comparison of observed values\nwith this overestimate is the origin of the perceived \"loss\" in circulation.",
