Episode 286: Fluid for Thought
Aug 7, 2023
Fluid dynamics experts Allen Young and Ashton Lewis discuss various principles in fluid dynamics with practical applications in the brewery. They explore topics such as the Bernoulli equation, settling process of yeast in Seltzer, and practical application of Bernoulli in pump sizing. They also touch on topics like vacuum failure in brewery tanks and the risks of tank overflow. Sponsored by Hopsteiner, Proximity Malt, BSG, and more.
