Fluid Dynamics Simulator

Desk Labs LLC Fluid Dynamics Simulator

Simulate over fifty real-world water, air, and magma events. Flow Table may be used as a “wind tunnel”, stream table, wave tank, or ripple tank. It is simple to use. Pre-cut event plates are placed in moving water or Rheoscopic fluid. Dye highlights changes in linear and circular flow patterns. Earth Science activities include: airborne germ transmissions, air masses, cold/warm fronts, jet streams, groundwater, density currents, longshore currents, rivers, plate tectonics, volcanic eruptions, and many others. Physical Science activities include: Bernoulli’s principle, aerodynamic/hydrodynamic flow, flight, draft, eddies, ventilation, channels, rivers, etc. Also, includes lessons and activities associated with sound, water, and seismic waves. Demonstrations and “hands-on” activities are designed to give students grade-level knowledge about the geosphere, hydrosphere, and atmosphere by connecting Physical Science principles to Earth Science processes. Designed for tabletop, overhead, and/or digital camera projection. Kit includes: chambered tray, water pump (120v, AC), tubing, fittings, event plates, eyedropper, and Teacher Guide.
