What is stream function?

A family of curves ψ = constant represents "streamlines," hence, the stream function remains constant along a streamline. The stream function represents a particular case of a vector potential of velocity, related to velocity by the equality.

What is flow past half body?

In the field of fluid dynamics, a Rankine half body is a feature of fluid flow discovered by Scottish physicist and engineer William Rankine that is formed when a fluid source is added to a fluid undergoing potential flow. Superposition of uniform flow and source flow yields the Rankine half body flow.
