This demonstration provides an aesthetic way to view convection currents in fluids. Water warmed by an electric circuit mixes with the surrounding cooler water creating turbulence effects that bend light; the resulting...

eFluids is a collaborative site that seeks to serve as a “one-stop information resource for anyone working in the areas of flow engineering, fluid mechanics research, education and directly related topics.” The site...

This web site for a class on flow visualization showcases the work of engineering and fine arts students. Eleven galleries present student images showing fluids and clouds, with information about both the science and the...

This lab, presented by the National Nanotechnology Infrastructure Network, covers the concept of material properties. Students will create a microfluidic device to show "the importance of channel design in biotechnology...

This lesson, presented by the National Nanotechnology Infrastructure Network, covers the properties of water flow. Students will "observe and understand the way fluids interact with a stationary phase for example,...
