Interesting video showing Laminar Flow and demonstrating fluid flowing in layers. Very cool! Filmed at the University of New Mexico - Physics Department. This apparatus was developed by John DeMoss and Kevin Cahill of the Department of Physics & Astronomy. Interested in having your own demo unit?

wow

thanks for posting this. very cool.
-
Thats amazing !!
-
wow so boring

cool. I never knew that this could happen.
-
at first I was like, meh. Kinda cool.
And then it reversed
Haven't seen my jaw since -

Looks like we've finally found a way to reverse entropy.

can we use honey for this

The cylinder is filled with high viscosity glycerol. Piped in are droplets of corn syrup (different viscosity) colored with food dye. Stir too quickly and they will mix; it's called turbulent flow. But, stir slowly, laminar flow, and the layers remain separate; like cards shuffled through a deck. Since the layers never truly mixed, they can be carefully separated back into their original states. Interesting physics; complex math.

and what happens if he continues to spin it backwards?....
-
What is inside the cylinder ,is that water or something else?
-
amazing.......

food colorant does not float in karo sirup?
