Laminar Reverse Flow
This colored corn syrup is dropped into a mixture, stirred
up, and when the direction is reversed, the drops return their
original state.
The facts:
Laminar flow, sometimes known as streamline flow, occurs
when a fluid flows in parallel layers, with no disruption
between the layers. In fluid dynamics, laminar flow is a flow
regime characterized by high momentum diffusion, low momentum
convection, pressure and velocity independent from time. It is
the opposite of turbulent flow. In nonscientific terms laminar
flow is "smooth," while turbulent flow is "rough."
