Turbulent Flow
Slow Flow
What Is Turbulent Flow?
Examples Of Turbulent Flow
Range Rover
A range rover has turbulent flow because a range rover has a awful lot of straight edges. When the fast winds hit this vehicle the straight edges make the wind really rough and causes eddies. As you can see in this picture the wind is coming at the range rover and on the back it's causing these weird swirls. But, the air that makes its way through the sides and the bottom it is travelling smoothly (less rough then the wind traveling from the top).
Oil Pipeline
The oil pipelines has turbulent flow because when oil travels through them the friction between the oil and the pipe slows down the oil from flowing. Turbulent flow occurs when the oil is sent out of the pipe and interacts with the wind. When the oil hits the wind, it gets really rough because of the air that travels past the oil and causes turbulent flow. In conclusion, the pipelines have turbulent flow because of the viscous oil that has really rough edges.
Kite (not a picture of a kite)
A kite is meant to fly great heights and not meant to go fast, so when the air hits the kite its goes back and causes lots of eddies and swirls so its hard for the kites move fast (that's why the kite mostly stays in one spot). This picture isn't a picture of a kite but this is what exactly happens to a kite.
