Fluidic pinball outreach activity for students

On the 6th of April 2024, we participated in the “Teatro y Divulgación científica: Navegando los retos de una Europa verde” at Universidad Carlos III de Madrid.

The activity included a technical workshop aimed at children, that showcased an experiment in our water tunnel facility. We actively modified the test configuration of a Fluidic Pinball to observe the corresponding changes in forces and fluid behavior. We are organizing more similar workshops in the future to inspire young minds and encourage their interest in science and technology.
