Summary

Description
English: When a fluid flows slowly enough it can smoothly move around an obstacle, but when the speed increases the flow becomes turbulent. How fast you can go before you get turbulences, and how severe they are depends a lot on the shape of the obstacle. Color is modulus of the velocity, arrows show direction.
