The picture shown here contains an example of turbulent flow. As the water flows downstream, streamlines within the flow cross over themselves many times, giving rise to a frothy and bubbling surface. This is different from laminar flow. This is also different from the braided nature of some currents in water.
Turbulent flow results in a great deal of abrasive action at the bottom of the river.
The picture shown here contains an example of turbulent flow. As the water flows downstream, individual portions of the stream cross over themselves many times, giving rise to a frothy and bubbling surface. This is different from laminar flow. This is also different from the braided nature of some currents in water.
Turbulent flow helps pick up a great deal of sand at the bottom of a river.
