I'd suggest a video on lift generated by wings. Because everywhere i look i see contradictory arguments on how it works.

@SuperDreDo

7 жыл бұрын

yep, because the assumption that the mass of air will separate at the front tip of the wing, and then meet at te back tip AT THE SAME TIME is completely wrong. It doesn't make the Bernoulli principle irrelevant here, it's just that there is more than that causing the lift.

R1D3N_1 exactly this! I've seen so many explanations that explicitly state that this is a reason why wings generate uplift, even in supposedly scientific magazines and journals.

@pfeifenheini

Yeah, I have seen a couple of explanations. Some using Bernoulli, some don't. In the end it comes down to force. In order to keep the plane up in the air, you need to have an upward force equal to the gravitational force. The only way to achieve this is by accelerating air molecules downwards. For this you effectively need to have a higher pressure directly beneath the wings than the surrounding air. Whether this is achieved by tilting the wing, or it's shape, or both might influence the efficiency and how you calculate the lift, but the end result is always the same. That's the explanation I have settled with. =)

In my undergraduate course, we had a fluid dynamics unit and even it seems that the lecturer is also confused. Yes, there is some bernoulli action occurring but the principle of equal transit (ie. the air packets have to reach the end of the airfoil at the same time and thus the one which travels further does so faster) is very very wrong, and this is used to explain the airfoil mechanism the majority of the time. Look at the wing, as the air follows the top of the wing its viscosity holds it to the wing (the so-called boundary layer) and is generally projected downwards at the end of it, the air creating a force on the wing (equal and opposite to the force imposed on the air), lifting the airfoil up. As the angle of the airfoil increases, the vertical component of that force increases until there is no horizontal component - the airplane stalling.

Yeah, I kind of had a eureka moment and said "that sounds at least somewhat sensible," so I added it. Everything else is correct as I recall but not the stalling part. I had a looksie at wikipedia and researched a little and learnt otherwise, but didn't end up editing my comment. Although if you had a rather viscous fluid, I would say the vertical-horizontal component theory would hold.

That might be some of the most beautiful slow mo shots you've taken. Great video as always. Love cool phenomena like this that have a relayively simple explanation!

Great video and explanation. The concept of instability was well pointed out, while some other videos failed. Honored to be your fan.

Really appreciating the increased production value of these videos

Best explanation I've ever seen, excellent job!

A good question to ask would be "Yes, but why does it appear to occur at such regular intervals?"

and what factors affect its periodicity

@essayearth1354

eqlipse333 you can prove this mathematically. There is an equation, called the Taylor-Goldstein-equation, which can have real or complex solutions. The imaginary part will lead to instability (google Richardson number). The real part is a wave, so just sines and cosines. This gives you periodicity. The instability causes the wave to break.

I was thinking the same thing. I don't think the Taylor-Goldstein equation answers it, the question is, why is the wavelength a specific size, not why is there a wave at all.

I am replying to Hector comment.What do you think he was saying then ?

What an incredibly detailed but easy-to-digest explanation. It was fascinating. I'd heard of the instability but was unsure of its dynamics. Now I know and can pretend to be clever by explaining it when I see it next. My only 'complaint' about the explanation is 'faaaarster'? Not just farster, but faaaarster. A simple faster is all that is required.

That face at 3:33 is what I live for!😂😂😂

Thanks for these videos, guys. Makes me wonder why didn't they teach us physics in a fun and interesting manner at school ?

Awesome video!

this is beautiful

When I go outside and I see this cloud I feel like just standing there and watching it untill it disappears.

Different (pressure) densities have different different Mach numbers in the fluid, and the masses at those alternate densities can be thought of as two balloons rubbing against each other, balloon a has one natural frequency and the other has and the other resonates with a slightly different frequency so forming beats and the instability when the separate densities mix and witness the noise. just like Carly Simon sang about. "You're So Vain"

Hey Brady! I'd love if you could make a sixty symbols video regarding the new study published in nature on quantum communication.

what is interesting is that at 3:51, a second set of K-H instability patterns forms on the first set, and maybe, just like a fractal, a third set forms on the second set ...

This going to be one of those things I see everywhere now, isn't it?

In the initial description, we started with some random perturbations on the stream interface, but in the experiment the crests and troughs seem to be quite regularly spaced. Where does that periodicity arise from?

this is so cool

I'm interested in how it works in 3 dimensions, because in the tube experiment there seems to be a thinner area of material in the middle of each hook.

i first learned about this effect when learning why tall towers tend to wobble in the wind

I've been to Afghanistan a couple of times. The cloud formations there were completely different to anything I've ever seen. They looked similar to the liquid in this video in that the clouds appeared to be in waved or rows. It's clear to me now that the mountains caused the strange cloud formations.

nice video

So in the how its done video you mention the fiddly part after its full to cap it off with no air bubbles inside.... so how would this experiments results change if there was an air bubble in there?

But why do they appear at regular intervals? Shouldn't the spacing be more random if it's growing from surface fluctuations?

@MrClivesinger

7 жыл бұрын

That is a very difficult question to answer, and there are still papers being published on it. Basically, some wave modes are more unstable than others, and their stability (plus a few other experimental parameters), determines how fast they grow. You could think of all possible perturbation ripples happening at once, but only the very fastest growing waves reach the size you can see. Some waves also get an extra initial "kick" from surface and compression waves initiated while setting up the experiment, which then get a head-start, so to speak.

@seigeengine

7 жыл бұрын

What do you mean by appear to regular intervals? And I'd guess the answer is because the effect self-initiates itself. That is, one minor perturbation creates a pattern of oscillation.

@iabervon

If you've got a bump at one end and it's growing, the stuff in the bump has to come from somewhere, which means that a dip has to get started a little ways away, based on the size and shape of the growing bump. But when a dip is created, it also starts growing, which pulls stuff away from the top a bit further along, starting another bump, and so on. Since the instability is the same in each case, the distance to the next resulting fluctuation is the same in each case. If there are multiple bumps that happen to form before the chain gets established, you get some irregularities, which you can see in the raw slow motion attached to the extra video. Around 1:50 in that video, you can see two smaller, closer-spaced, faster-mixing bumps to the right of the bigger bumps in the rest of the shot.

Stirring movement in bartender mixing. Line | or arrow leaving behind 2 vortecies. Spiral mixing won't work in cup. Can You make one video on that subject? Thanks!

What explains the regular spacing of the instabilities?

Any explenation of why the pattern is so regular? I would think, because the instabilities can start from small pertubations anywhere in the interface, that the 'swirls' should be more irregular?

I didn't know I needed a cloud fix until this video.

I am impress in your confidence explaining this classic instability with nonsense arguments, please read chapter 1 of any basic book in hydrodynamic instability.

and the distance between the waves is given by? what is producing that particulary periodicity in distance and not another? It has anything to do with the Brunt-Väisälä frequency? Cheers

Great video, but this only explains how one instability forms. Why is it the case that they form with such uniform regularity (like a sine wave with a set frequency)?

2:27 Common misconception. Airplane wings don't generate lift because of the Bernoulli principle.

@francoisdelabruch6174

5 жыл бұрын

and why so?

So if the flow is faster on the bottom, will the clouds shown in the picture be inverted?

At 2:15 why is it that the same volume of air must go through a more or less constricted section? Is it the same as the case for airplane wings?

Why is there such a regular distance between the instabilities?

Why is it happening everywhere (along the interface) at the same time?

Ripples in the sand after the tide has gone out and sand dunes caused by the same thing I suppose.

3:31 "LOOK AT IT, JUST LOOK AT IT!" -"I'M LOOKING AT IT!"

Airplanes have lift because the wings are inclined planes relative to the plane of thrust.

why does it have a well defined period? if the initial perturbations in the symmetry are random, shouldn't the bulges form at random distances from each other?

3:33 pure gold

Oh no, not the "air goes faster over the top" theory of aerodynamic lift!

those were the straightest and most parallel looking lines I've ever seen someone draw

if you spin a spinning top clockwise then anti clockwise..will the spinning time be same in both cases? let's assume there's no coriolis effect and the spinning top is perfectly symmetrical and of course the surface has friction.

I am so confused,some articles I have read said the Bernoulli effect as the sole explanation for why airplanes have lift is wrong.

@user-zz6fk8bc8u

Because it is. The angle of attack matters and lift is generated mostly by deflecting air downwards. Most passenger airplanes use the special wing forms (and the bernoulli effect) for extra lift to safe fuel.

2:29 -- except it isn't because there are loads of aircraft that can fly straight and level with negative angles of attack or even straight and level while inverted.

2:27 But the air is only going faster because the pressure is increased - the air is compressed. So the Bernoullieffect is probably just cancelled out by the higher pressure.

So the horsehead nebula is actually giving us information on interstellar flows? something like that?

As I watch the effect in slow motion I am curious if the instability is fractal. That is, it seems as if each "horse head" develops little horse heads. Or am I seeing things that aren't there?

I've never seen any wavy clouds, but i noticed i think 3 years in a row fastmoving stripy clouds in the spring. I thought it had something with lowpressure to do because they move at so lowbase? It is the only sensation of earth moving i ever experienced. Maybe it is just a coincidence or wave a really common pattern, but i noticed that greek urns often display a row of spiraling waves. They also feature the more blocky horseshaped ones.

why does the pattern appear so regular, and why all at once? is there some relationship between the density of the two fluids and the period of the waves that form?

wouldntyaliktono There is a feedback effect. The first set of ripples to form at the correct spacing (depending on the density, velocity,etc... of the two streams) make it more likely more ripples will form at the same spacing.

But why are the horse heads in such a regular pattern? They seem to appear at regular intervals... is there an explanation for that?

A Scots-Irish and a German. I'm curing how these kind of collaborations happened.

And the air on top of an airplanes wing reaches the end faster than the air below it.... Lift isn't just created not because of the greater distance, the molecules going over top or going underneath never meet again actually.

It's confusing: at first you talk as if only relative motion matters (Galilean relativity), but when the upper layer is raised a bit and so constrained to go faster... isn't it only the relative speed that matters? so the lower layer is also going "faster" (relatively, in the other direction), so why isn't the upper layer pulled down?? [With the airplane wing it makes sense, since you are comparing both speeds to the same measuring stick: the speed of the wing.] Thanks!
