12/2/2023 0 Comments Twist in time laminar flow![]() ![]() Let’s consider another example to understand the same: We consider the turbulence flow as a non-laminar flow. Turbulence occurs when the velocity of the fluid increases with the decrease in its velocity. So, when this variation in its laminar fluid flow occurs, this is the turbulent flow or turbulence nature. Now, on melting, it starts flowing very quickly in varying directions. Let’s suppose that you kept an opened ghee packet under the Sun. These all eating items have high viscosity. In another example, we discussed honey, ghee, peanut butter, milk butter, and so on. So, do you know how laminar flux varies and turns to turbulence? If you don’t know, let’s understand this in detail:ĭo you know why a laminar flow turns to a non-laminar flow? In the above example, we discussed an application of aerodynamics for the laminar flow. So, the more is the viscosity, the more is the laminar flow, and the more is the laminar flux. This smooth forward movement is the result of the laminar flow. However, when the viscosity of the liquid is higher like honey, peanut butter, milk butter they all have a higher viscosity and when they flow after melting, their layers remain intact, and therefore, all the particles to remain in close vicinity with each other, without leaving their exact lattice point (imaginary) while making movement in the forward direction. So, here, laminar flow is one of the applications in the mechanics of air. We see an airfoil, which carries a pressure difference however, the flow remains laminar, and this pressure difference allows the wings of an aeroplane to lift up. In aerodynamics, the same concept applies to dynamic lift. So, when there is a pressure difference in the below and the above layer of the laminar fluid, the velocity difference also occurs. Whenever a fluid flows in a pipe, the velocity of the laminar fluid flow remains to change that’s what we can observe in the above figure. Let’s look at the visual representation of the lumina flow:Ī laminar flow in a liquid depends on the two following factors: Laminar flow occurs at lower velocities and high viscosity. ![]() When a fluid flows via a closed channel such as a pipe or between two flat plates, the laminar flow may occur depending on the velocity, viscosity of the fluid, and the size of the pipe. The terminology ‘streamlined flow’ is descriptive of the laminar fluid flow because, in laminar flow, layers of water flow over one another at varying speeds with virtually no mixing between layers, fluid particles move in definite and observable paths or streamlines just like the marching of Indian Army. We call the laminar flow a streamline or viscous flow. In Laminar flow, the fluid flows in parallel layers with lesser lateral mixing and no disruption between the layers. In fluid dynamics, laminar flow is a smooth or regular movement of particles of the fluid. While driving when you encounter a turn on the left or right of the road, the laminar flow becomes a non laminar flow. You can think of the laminar flow of liquid as the straight road (free of turns). These particles have a smooth movement as we walk on a smooth road. In a fluid, for laminar flow, all the particles carry constant attributes like velocity, pressure, and speed. This page discusses laminar fluid flow, lamellar flow, non-laminar flow, lumina flow, and laminar flux in detail. If in this case ants deviate from their path and make two directions, then it is the non-laminar flow. So, don’t you think this is a laminar flow? Yes, that’s true.Ī laminar flow in fluid mechanics is the straight or linear flow of all the particles of the fluid that is similar to the marching of an ant. The successive ants smell this chemical and march-like an army. You know that an ant releases an invisible, fragrant chemical called Pheromone. ![]()

Your cat will remain completely pain-free throughout the procedure. You’ll get all the advice and support you need from a caring and experienced vet. Sadly, cat euthanasia at home may be your final option. If the cancer has spread you may have to consider putting your cat to sleep. Complete elimination will have positive long-term results. So, your cat will require laser treatment or surgery. Removal of the entire eye may be necessary to prevent the spread of cancer to other parts of the body. Therefore, tumours may be benign or malignant. There is a large range of symptoms that indicate an eye tumour, and irregular cat eye discharge is one of them. Treatment again depends on the underlying cause and could be anti-viral, antibiotics, antifungal, or anti-parasitic medication. Corneal disorders result in excessive blinking, inflammation, and increased tear production. Trauma, corneal ulceration, and tumours can all cause this. And can lead to blindness if left untreated. The inflammation of the internal structures of the eye can cause a serious and painful problem known as uveitis. Treatment can include eye drops or ointments and artificial tears. If left untreated it can lead to blindness. And can lead to inflamed corneas and red eyes. This chronic lack of tear production can result in a yellow, cloying eye discharge. And eye flushes may be carried out to clear the eye of any foreign material. Prescription drops or eye ointment may be prescribed to fight off infection. And your cat will display sensitivity to the light. Discharge may be clear and teary, or thick and mucus-like. And your cat’s eyes will start to swell and look red. This is caused by inflammation of the pink lining around the eye. ConjunctivitisĪ cat watery eye may be due to conjunctivitis. Specific treatments are determined by the cause of the infection and can include eye medications, decongestants, fluids, and antibiotics. More importantly, these infections are highly contagious amongst cats so the virus needs to be kept under control. And your cat eye discharge may look black. Symptoms can include a sticky pus-like eye discharge. These infections can include pneumonitis, feline calicivirus, bacteria, and herpesvirus. Then the appropriate medication will be prescribed. Your vet will be able to determine whether your cat is suffering from an allergic reaction by checking your cat’s temperature, and with a standard blood test. Cats can be allergic to the same things as people including: See some reasons for cat eye discharge here: AllergiesĪ cat runny eye could be the result of an allergy. Runny eyes in cats can lead to eye problems that can cause blindness.

In Adventure Mode, a cutscene will play, in which the Magister contacts Merga and attempts to make amends for the crimes the earth dragons had committed against the water dragons, even willing to reveal the truth to the public in exchange for allowing the planet to survive.

We never got anything like the Z Channel on the east coast but HBO, Cinemax and The Movie Channel after 10pm on the weekdays featured everything from French art house to Don The Dragon Wilson's best work and everything else in between. I've mentioned this before but I'll say it again - late night cable TV programming between the late 80's and early 90's was the best. Exorcist 3 is part of a special group of underrated "Part 3's" that got overlooked or unfairly treated because the film before it was either too bad, disappointing or too good (Alien 3, Exorcist 3, The Girl Who Kicked The Hornets Nest). Now, the Exorcist part 3 isn’t the MOST forgotten about film in the world, however on more than one occasion I've honestly heard people say "There's a third Exorcist movie?" And the prequels that came out in 2004 were cursed with post production and editing issues. Part 2 was so awful that we didn’t get the often forgotten about third part until almost 13 years later. Every Exorcist film besides parts 1 & 3 have been cursed or doomed in some way. It was about religion, faith, the loss of innocence, hidden inside of the kinda horror film that no one had really seen yet. We all know the first Exorcist wasn’t your typical horror film about some monster or supernatural serial killer out to get someone. But if you're gonna make a sequel to a classic the least you could do is not make it a total disaster.which is what the Exorcist sequel was. I mean, I understand - it was such a huge hit movie studios wanted to milk it as much as they could. The Exorcist should have honestly just been left to stand alone as one iconic movie. It’s the big rematch (Rocky 2), the shocking discovery (Darth Vader reveals he's Luke's father), the loss or death of a major character (Fredo in The Godfather) and more action (Terminator 2). The bridge between the beginning and the end of the story where all the crucial & memorable stuff happens. It’s the glue that holds everything together. The second part of any trilogy/saga/franchise is key. Terminator 2, Godfather 2, Rocky 2, The Empire Strikes Back, Aliens, the list goes on. ![]() 12/2/2023 0 Comments Sigma lenses for sony![]() The threads are fine and "dry".so be gentle threading these on. The replacement, although the packaging and filter itself were identical to my precious filter that had the issues, "clearly", (no pun intended) did NOT degrade my Sigma at 600mm, the worst case for the issues I had with soft images and lack of sharpness/detail prior to the replacement.Haze filters that are ruining the Sigma 150-600mm (as well as the Tamron equivalent and the Nikon 200-500mm as well)are out there in is not chronic, but, then again, not everyone has a super-telephoto and thus, might never see an issue with a lower focal length telephoto.So in summary, the replacement that Jongsun sent me and in only a few days, resolved my issues.The filter is thin profile as many have said, but, no issues on my Sigma.

They are huge maps filled with collectables, such as the letters R-A-L-L-Y, and some sightseeing icons. I’ve been using Art of Rally’s photo mode as much as I’ve been using Ghost of Tsushima’s…īesides your standard rally racing, Art of Rally also features a fantastic free roaming mode that actually features things to do. No need to earn in-game currency in order to unlock them: all you need to do is progress through the career mode and your garage will steadily grow. The Lancia Delta, Ford RS200, Renault 5 Turbo, they’re all here. None of them are licensed, but they’re easily recognizable. Keep beating more cups and you’ll eventually acquire cars from other decades and categories. Beat the first cup and you’ll get a classic Alpine A110. Each set of races is meant to resemble a year in racing history, meaning that you will start off playing with the OLDEST cars available in the game, a Mini Cooper and an old Escort. This is almost like an automotive history lesson. It’s not just your typical “select a team, start from the bottom and work your way to the top” kind of mode. This career mode was meant for people like you and me. It might not have the humongous roster from Forza, but I can’t help but feel happy with how the game’s career mode has been designed. Most importantly, it’s a love letter to car enthusiasts such as myself. It’s a mix of many different racing worlds: top-down, simulation, indie, and arcade. It also fills in a niche left behind by the lack of decent top-down racers released over the years (the less I have to remind myself of that terrible Micro Machines reboot, the better). That might seem a bit anemic for a $25 game, though you can often find a key for far cheaper.Yeah, this just happened from out of nowhere.Īrt of Rally is not only an alternative towards the more simulation-heavy rally racers out there. There are daily and weekly events from the developer, but those are essentially just remixes of existing content, like the custom livery that are the only built-in game mods. Once you complete the excellent campaign, there isn’t much to do except roam in free mode and get acquainted with the (admittedly gorgeous) photo tool. This isn’t the kind of game you can play with YouTube running on the other monitor.Īrt of Rally is a pure and uncluttered experience, but that might also be its one failing. It’s not an impossible challenge - there’s a rather forgiving reset button that lets you undo a crash for a limited number of times - but mastering the vehicles and physics will take time, intention, and no small amount of patience. While it presents almost like a “chill” game a la Unpacking, it will absolutely punish you the moment you lose focus or take the track for granted. The contrast between the soothing visuals and music and the absolutely demanding gameplay is a rare one, reminding me a bit of Risk of Rain 2 without the multiplayer. (Hey, don’t judge me, I can drive stick in real life.) Art of Rally might not look much like AAA entries like Codemasters’ Dirt or V-Rally, but it demands just as much skill from players even if you don’t opt for the optional manual transmission. Despite the simplicity of the tracks, this is a racing game that absolutely demands your full attention and focus, with each car handling differently on asphalt, dirt, and snow, reacting to the rise and fall of the road with realistic physics. ![]() The surprising depth extends to the racing itself. Unfortunately there’s a bit of obfuscation in the names and livery of these famous cars, but fans of the sport will be able to spot the intended homages instantly, and the rest of us can probably figure it out with a little Googling. In the main campaign you’ll get a truncated tour of the history of rally’s rise to prominence, and you’ll unlock the cars that made that history. ![]() Art of Rally is a game that’s deeply in love with rally racing, both its straightforward mechanics and its history. But the simplicity of the setup is deceptive. ![]() |
