Scientific Information

This simulation demonstrates basic principles of fluid dynamics and aerodynamics:

  • Pressure Distribution: Higher pressure (red) forms at the leading edge of objects
  • Flow Separation: Notice how airflow separates around objects
  • Wake Formation: Turbulence forms behind objects (blue region)
  • Vorticity: Measure of local rotation in the fluid flow
