Recent advances have significantly enhanced our understanding of the complex fluid dynamics surrounding wind turbine blades. By employing non-invasive imaging techniques such as infrared thermography, ...
There are two main types of fluid flow - laminar flow, in which the fluid flows smoothly in layers, and turbulent flow, which is characterised by chaotic motion and large amounts of mixing. In this ...
This section was adapted from The Engine and the Atmosphere: An Introduction to Engineering by Z. Warhaft, Cambridge University Press, 1997. How many times a day do we turn on a faucet? Do it now.
Flow visualization is the process of making the physics of fluid flows (gases, liquids) visible. At the University of Colorado we have a course for mixed teams of engineering and fine arts photography ...
This is a preview. Log in through your library . Abstract A high Reynolds-number Mach-6 wind-tunnel nozzle has been designed for a new quiet-flow Ludwieg tube. The quiet-flow nozzle is designed to ...
We aren’t sure if [Joshua Bellamy] is serious that he wants a laminar flow to water his plants, but there are many places where having a smooth and predictable flow of water is useful or even ...

Dwayne ‘The Rock’ Johnson reveals real reason behind dramatic new physique: ‘Excited to transform again’ ...
Boeing plans to reduce airframe drag on the 787 by standardising on a specific thickness of grey paint (pictured below) for the engine inlet which it says will preserve natural laminar flow over a ...
