Man, fluid dynamics are weird, right?


And for another example of the same effect(except human powered instead of specialized machine.)

@SW-User Or just completely blow their minds with the almost seemingly reality-defying shenanigans of superfluids.

It's something I never really got my head around, especially flow in pipes.

@GlassDog Considering the continuing lack of proper mathematical abstracts for them, I don't think you're alone. That's pretty much the entire scientific community's feelings.

The Death Star is cleared to fire, the Death Star is cleared to fire.

Commence primary ignition!

Indeed!! :)

Weird? No
Neat and interesting? Yes.

You want to go deep into that come on down when we are tuning props and hulls.

@MethDozer Neat indeed. 👌 My uncle works on related things.

@UndeadPrivateer you get some strange forces going on at that 70mph mark with water. After that shot gets weird. Now your hull is your biggest problem. You can add as much HP as you want and you won't see any speed gains because of the dynamics on the hull. Stiction becomes a major obstacle and that's the just the beginning.
