You're on an airplane when you feel a sudden jolt. Outside your window nothing seems to be happening, yet the plane continues to rattle you and your fellow passengers as it passes through turbulent air in the atmosphere. What exactly is...

Physicist Werner Heisenberg said, "When I meet God, I am going to ask him two questions: why relativity? And why turbulence? I really believe he will have an answer for the first." As difficult as turbulence is to understand...

Today we’re talking all about fluid mechanics! We’ll look at different scales that we work with as engineers, mass and energy transfers, the no-slip condition, stress and strain, Newton’s law of viscosity, Reynold’s number, and more!

Learn the difference between laminar and turbulent flow through the example of rising candle smoke. See how slow, steady flow turns chaotic as speed increases—perfect for students studying fluid dynamics.

Laminar and turbulent flow of candle smoke.

Dive into the fascinating world of fluid flow with this introduction to the four conditions of ideal fluid flow: nonviscous, incompressible, steady, and irrotational. Learn how these principles simplify the complex motions of fluids and...

How heat exchangers work - Micro Plate. In this video we'll be taking a look at how Micro Plate Heat Exchangers work as well as their applications within chillers, heat pumps and heat recovery systems for the condenser and evaporator....

Industrial heat exchangers explained, learn the different types of heat exchangers used and how they work with examples.

A conversation with Robin Beck, an engineer at NASA’s Ames Research Center in California’s Silicon Valley who develops, designs and tests heat shield materials.

In this video, we explore the mechanism of atherosclerosis along with other physical and chemical factors that contribute.
