Laminar flow, sometimes known as streamline flow, occurs when a fluid flows in parallel layers, with no disruption between the layers.

Laminar flow tends to occur at lower velocities, below the onset of turbulent flow.

* Laminar flow reactor

simple: Laminar flow

Laminar flow cannot be used for pumping, because laminar turbines stall when not used at the designed flow.

Laminar flow tends to generate less resistance than turbulent flow.

A general but non-specific term for some of these local ventilation devices is Laminar flow cabinet.

Among them were the C-140 Jetstar Laminar Flow Control, F-111 Mission Adaptive Wing, F-14 Variable Sweep Flow Transition, space shuttle orbiter drag chute and F-111 crew module parachute tests with the B-52, and X-29 vortex flow control.

The NLF, short for " Natural Laminar Flow ", is a series of designs that replaced the older GAW series with more forgiving laminar flow characteristics.

The Enclosed Laminar Flames ( ELF ) experiment objective was to validate the zero-gravity Burke-Schumann model and the gravity-dependent Hegde-Bahadori extension of the model, investigate the importance of the buoyancy-dependent flow field as affected by oxidizer flow on flame stabilization, examine the state relationships of co-flow diffusion flames under the influence of buoyancy conditions ( gravity versus pressure ), and study the flow vortex and diffusion flame interactions.

Laminar flow elements measure the mass flow of gases directly.

Laminar boundary layers can be loosely classified according to their structure and the circumstances under which they are created.

In the same year, D. E. Shaw affiliate, Laminar Portfolios, acquired the online assets of KB Toys, which continued operating as eToys. com.

* Laminar Flame speed

Laminar microliths can also sometimes be described as trapezoidal, triangular or lunate.

Laminar boundary layer velocity profile The aerodynamic boundary layer was first defined by Ludwig Prandtl in a paper presented on August 12, 1904 at the third International Congress of Mathematicians in Heidelberg, Germany.

Laminar microliths are common artifacts from the Upper Paleolithic and the Epipaleolithic, to such a degree that numerous studies have used them as markers to date different phases of prehistoric cultures.

Laminar microliths date from at least the Gravettian culture or possibly the start of the Upper Paleolithic era, and they are found all through the Mesolithic and Neolithic eras.

During the period of Moghuls, Ram Sundar Mitra had got the Laminar at Barasat town.

Laminar microliths are associated with the end of the Upper Paleolithic and the beginning of the Epipaleolithic era ; geometric microliths are characteristic of the Mesolithic and the Neolithic.

Space Combat is a game produced by Laminar Research to provide a simulation of space combat with accurate physics, unlike most other games of the same genre.

Also, to further development of Laminar Research's main product, X-Plane, a Linux version has been released.

Therefore, to calculate net forces on bodies ( such as wings ) we should use viscous flow equations.

At high-subsonic flight speeds, supersonic airflow can develop in areas where the flow accelerates around the aircraft body and wings.

Some buffeting may also be felt from the turbulent flow above the wings as the stall is reached.

* Analysis of air flow over delta wings

A headwind will reduce the ground speed needed for takeoff, as there is a greater flow of air over the wings.

He noticed that the detachment of the shock wave over the blunt leading edges of the wings of the Armstrong-Whitworth design would allow the air on the bottom of the craft to flow spanwise and escape to the upper part of the wing through the gap between the leading edge and the detached shock wave.

Vortex generators delay flow separation and aerodynamic stalling, thereby improving the effectiveness of wings and control surfaces ( e. g., Embraer 170 and Symphony SA-160 ).

Like most owls, the Barn Owl flies silently ; tiny serrations on the leading edges of its flight feathers help to break up the flow of air over its wings, thereby reducing turbulence and the noise that accompanies it.

The spanwise flow on swept wings produces airflow that moves the stagnation point on the leading edge of any individual wing segment further beneath the leading edge, increasing effective angle of attack of wing segments relative to its neighbouring forward segment.

Typically noise is generated when flow passes an object on the aircraft, for example the wings or landing gear.

Another way to reduce the exhaust temperature is to circulate coolant fluids such as fuel inside the exhaust pipe, where the fuel tanks serve as heat sinks cooled by the flow of air along the wings.

In flexible wings, much or all of a wing surface can change shape in flight to deflect air flow.

The albatross is so large that it can only launch itself after a run-up to create a flow of air over its wings.

A 2011 study suggest that airplanes may produce ice particles by freezing cloud droplets that cool as they flow around the tips of propellers, over wings or over jet aircraft, and thereby unintentionally seed clouds.

Detailed pieces of bodywork on top of the car can be added to allow a smooth flow of air to reach the downforce-creating elements ( i. e., wings or spoilers, and underbody tunnels ).

The flow of air at the rear of the car is affected by the front wings, front wheels, mirrors, driver's helmet, side pods and exhaust.

Various other extra wings have been tried from time to time, but nowadays it is more common for teams to seek to improve the performance of the front and rear wings by the use of various flow controllers such as the afore-mentioned " bull-horns " used by McLaren.

In flexible wings, much or all of a wing surface can change shape in flight to deflect air flow.

The effectiveness of wings can be greatly improved by using blow-type flow control, while if the intensity of the blown jet is high enough, even the lift predicted by potential flow theory can be surpassed ( i. e. the jet flap effect ) due to the initiation of supercirculation.

Hypersonic gas dynamics will create high temperature flow across the wings of the orbital ascender, and heat transfer along the wings must be kept low enough to avoid damage.
