Herbert This is outside my experience, but I did find a good explanation on WikiAnswers: http://wiki.answers.com/Q/Why_do_balloon_pop There are other references that you might be able to get better
Ngole Many studies have been made of injecting flow into the boundary layer to prevent separation. Without a sketch or more information I cannot understand exactly what you are thinking of so I can't
I don't know but I am dubious. First, the dimples look pretty big - they would be creating a lot of turbulence. A little turbulence is good just upstream of a flow separation region like the small dimples
Askash Here is one list of engineering schools in the U.S. There are many more: http://grad-schools.usnews.rankingsandreviews.com/best-graduate-schools/top-engi Pick a
Bob That is a good question. We know that the useful power output from a propeller (air or water) is TV (thrust time velocity of vehicle). So let us fix TV. The question then is which is the most efficient
