Title |
An application of axisymmetrical lamina flow to fountain design |
Date |

Description |
The application of axisymmetric laminar fluid flow to the area of fountain design is studied. The fluid mechanical background of laminar flow is researched, along with the detailed mathematical analysis of the underlying principles. Designs are developed for nozzles capable of generating large scale, free flowing laminar streams. Concurrently, artistic designs for fountains based on laminar flow are pursued, and subsequently a working fountain is built. Finally, consideration is; given to imaginative future projects employing what has been discovered and developed during the course of this research. |
