The flow of all fluids, whether liquid or gas, will have one of three states: laminar, turbulent, and transitional. This article discusses flow principles and pressure-based flow measurement. Laminar ...

Until now it had been assumed that, once a flow of a fluid has become turbulent, turbulence would persist. Researchers have now shown that this is not the case. In their experiments they managed to ...

Turbulence is one of the great mysteries of modern science. It is also one of the most important, as most of the flows we're interested in are turbulent. In some applications, such as industrial ...

A discussion is given of the ongoing research related to laminar flow airfoils, nacelles, and wings where the laminar flow is maintained by a favorable pressure gradient, surface suction or a ...

This is turbulent flow (top) compared to laminar flow (bottom). Disclaimer: AAAS and EurekAlert! are not responsible for the accuracy of news releases posted to EurekAlert! by contributing ...

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 ...

A Laminar Flow system plays a crucial role in controlling particulate contamination. It refers to a steady, uniform flow of air. Inside the Laminar Flow Cabinet, the air initially passes through an ...
