A streamlined body looks like a fish, or an airfoil at small angles of attack ... Boundary layer profiles for laminar and turbulent flow. The boundary layer over the front face of a sphere or cylinder ...

Fluids play a crucial role in industrial processes like cooling, heating, and mixing. Traditionally, most industries would ...

For the wing’s airfoil, Bellanca chose the NACA ... the committee anticipated would provide natural laminar flow—the perfect non-turbulent passage of air over the forward portion of a wing ...

Kolmogorov’s “scaling law” describes how energy is distributed across different scales in a turbulent flow. To measure it in a static painting, researchers had to devise a method to measure ...
