Researchers at the Flatiron Institute's Center for Computational Quantum Physics have come up with a new explanation for why water flows faster through a wider pipe than a narrower one. If validated, it could allow material designers to fine-tune flows through tiny channels, which could be useful in processes such as water purification.
