Water Jet Applied to an Object Floating on Water Part 1: Parallelepiped Shape Object. Investigation of a Braking Phenomenon by the Venturi Effect.
Abstract
Romdhane Ben Slama
The action of a water jet on a rectangular shape object causes its attraction under the effect of the creation of a depression due a priori, to the Venturi effect known in fluid mechanics. The actual observation has been made. We are trying here to find an explanation for this paradoxical phenomenon. Apart from braking, the phenomenon can be applied for recoil, propulsion of an object floating on the water, as well as its rotation in one direction and the other.
