Fluid Pressure and Flow

Topics

• Pressure
• Water
• Fluids
• Fluid Dynamics
• Bernoulli
• Density

Description

Explore pressure in the atmosphere and underwater. Reshape a pipe to see how it changes fluid flow speed. Experiment with a leaky water tower to see how the height and water level determine the water trajectory.

Sample Learning Goals

• Investigate how pressure changes in air and water.
• Discover how you can change pressure.
• Predict pressure in a variety of situations.
• Determine how fluid motion affects the pressure.
• Figure out how to convert water pressure to water velocity.
