Flow Loop First Trial
This is the first wet trial of the Flow Loop, a continuously flowing water channel for demonstrating the properties of fluid flow, and experimenting on the same. Properties include frictional resistance, wave making resistance, turbulence, lift & drag, and others. In the video, the channel is only half filled, the pump is running at half speed, and the flow straighteners have not yet been installed. The Flow Loop will be the centerpiece of the SSC's exhibit collection for the coming year.
