Visual Flows™ provides a captivating, illustrative and educational guide to transport processes. The images and videos that can be accessed here span an exceedingly wide range of flows, from creeping to turbulent, from single to multiphase, and from Newtonian and highly complex. These flows may also involve heat and mass transfer potentially in the presence of externally applied fields. Such flows are central to numerous naturally-occurring phenomena, as well as industrial, biophysical, biomedical and daily-life applications; these include energy engineering, materials processing, microfluidics, coating flow technology, plasma processing, space transport and technology, to name but a few.
The patterns exhibited by a flow provide insight into the complexity of its dynamics. Examples of complex dynamics are provided by the images below.
