218K views · 2.3K reactions | The ocean is constantly on the move! The surface ocean currents, which are primarily driven by wind, are colorized based on their temperature. The distribution of solar energy from the equators to the poles also contributes to the currents, with the oceans responsible for 40% of the global heat transport!

Experimental Fluid Mechanics is the branch of fluid dynamics that focuses on studying fluid behavior through physical experiments rather than relying solely on theory or simulations. It involves designing experiments, building test setups, and using advanced measurement techniques (like Particle Image Velocimetry, Laser Doppler Anemometry, flow visualization, and hot-wire anemometry) to observe and analyze flow characteristics such as velocity, turbulence, pressure, and heat transfer.
