Wind tunnel
Sketch an object, release it into the flow and watch the air find a route around your design.
Draw a solid shape in the tunnel. The streamlines will bend around it and settle downstream.
The streamlines use advection, pressure deflection, a turbulent wake and downstream relaxation. It remains a playful real-time approximation rather than CFD.
Built to be played with. These are small prototypes with room to grow.
