Adrian Bejan I Possible, Impossible, Diversity, from Design in Nature
In this video, Adrian Bejan explores the fundamental principles that govern the movement of fluids and energy in natural and engineering systems. He discusses the application of Constructal Law, which explains how flow systems evolve easier and greater access to what flows. The video examines the evolution of natural flows, illustrating how designs such as river networks, blood circulation, and engineering systems follow universal patterns to minimize resistance and maximize efficiency. In addition, Bejan explores the concept of economies of scale, emphasizing how a larger, organized flow can outperform multiple smaller channels.
