turbulent flow

• Tipo de flujo de un fluido (líquido o gas) en el que las partículas se mueven de manera caótica e irregular, con cambios bruscos y desordenados de velocidad y presión, a diferencia del flujo laminar, que es suave y ordenado.

A type of fluid motion characterized by chaotic, irregular changes in pressure and velocity, as opposed to smooth, laminar flow.

   A type of fluid (liquid or gas) flow characterized by chaotic, irregular changes in pressure and velocity.

   flujo turbulento

   • Engineers study turbulent flow to design more efficient aircraft wings.
   • The transition from laminar to turbulent flow occurs at a certain Reynolds number.
   • Turbulent flow in a pipe causes higher friction and energy loss compared to smooth flow.
