Explore the fascinating phenomena of boundary layer separation and turbulent flow visualization through Reynolds experiments. Witness the effects of Reynolds numbers on laminar and turbulent flows, with examples like drag reduction methods and golf ball dimples. Learn about the dynamics of lift generation, spin effects, and boundary layer adhesion techniques. Dive into the realm of fluid mechanics with animations and real-world examples.

Higher velocity • Lower velocity • Force due to pressure difference Lift • Magnus effect • Fluid = Lift
Swing • B • spin • Station A
OutSwing • Seam - trip flow • spin- stability
