"We found that sipping through a straw defies all the previously known laws for the resistance or friction of flow through a pipe or tube," explains Leif Ristroph, an associate professor at New York ...

Rotameter flow meters are devices that can measure the flowrate of liquids and gases. Generally, the rotameter is a tube made of plastic, glass or metal combined with a float, which responds linearly ...

One of the most familiar techniques for teaching elementary electricity is to compare the flow of electrons through wires to the passage of fluids through pipes. The analogy is so valid that ...

I believe the single most important factor is that the most accurate flowmeters have a close connection between the operating ...

Scientists have created a model alveolar system that mimics the breathing action of the human lung and allows visualization of flow patterns within the alveoli. The chip they designed includes tubes ...

Fluids play a crucial role in industrial processes like cooling, heating, and mixing. Traditionally, most industries would utilize Newtonian fluids—which have a constant viscosity—for such processes.

Fluid-handling or transfer devices are not basically concerned with the modulation or transfer of power, but only with the movement of fluid. Two major types of fluid-transfer pumps are ...
