Abstract
Moving fluids are a pervasive feature in the lives of most organisms; flow tanks are convenient tools for studying the interactions of organisms and fluids. The authors propose a general design, giving suggestions for construction and use along with a discussion of the past and potential applications of flow tanks.This publication has 30 references indexed in Scilit:
