Then, a sensation such as popping ears due to increasing altitude, a stomach drop due to

Its number - crunching capabilities are used to study ship hydrodynamics and
air turbulence, to probe industrial combustion turbines to create cleaner engines, and to understand global ocean circulation, as well as
for earthquake simulations and aircraft noise - reduction modeling.
Although observatories are built at sites that typically have clear skies and relatively calm
air layers, the only ways to get truly sharp images is go above the atmosphere (think Hubble Space Telescope) or to build highly complicated adaptive optics systems that correct
for the atmospheric
turbulence (and even most imperfections of the telescope itself).

Other new design features compared with the standard Civic on which the Type R is based include a new front bumper that has been shaped to reduce
turbulence around the front wheels, a wide front splitter, flared wheel arches, which at the front allow
air in as extra cooling
for the engine, and larger front grilles, also
for increased cooling.
The front windscreen is shaped to reduce
turbulence for the cabin passengers, deflecting the
air around and above their heads, keeping the level of ventilation within the cockpit to an optimal level

The «vented» taillight design includes special outlets and lip to help guide
air away from the body
for reduced

The shape of the front bumper,
for example, creates an «
air curtain'that directs
turbulence away from the front wheels.
It's very good
for the drag co-efficient when you have an opening behind the wheels so that the
air can flow out, rather than just creating
turbulence [inside the wheel wells].»
We think it looks pretty good, and once again, it's somewhat functional, as the upgraded side skirts direct the atmosphere around the flanks of the vehicle
for reduced
turbulence and a sleeker cut through the
air.
Gone is the standard hood, now replaced by a power - bulge aluminum hood with cold -
air intake and dual
air extractors
for optimized removal of heat and reduced
air turbulence in the engine compartment.
Breath, motion, quivering
air, sudden plunge or
turbulence: how perfectly Lanyon adapts his marks
for every sensation.
Finally, they say, any increase in clear
air turbulence would have important implications
for large - scale atmospheric circulation, because clear
air turbulence contributes significantly to exchanges between the stratosphere and the lower atmosphere.
Clear
air turbulence is an enduring problem
for commercial aircraft: pilots can not see it coming, it doesn't reflect signals to onboard radar, and satellite monitors can not detect it.
So while the general idea of
turbulence in
air is correct, your calculation underestimates the tendency
for turbulent flow.
**** There are at least 2 critical dangers
for flyers created by these things: 1)
air turbulence — generated by a sea of 50 - 60m blades with their outer tips travelling at around 400km / h — interfering with the ability of the pilot to control their kite (see our post here); and 2) slamming into them ---LSB-...]
