A major contributor to global warming are the energy and transportation industries, which rely on fluid machineries that are often inefficient and leave a high carbon footprint. To improve the efficiency of these machineries, researchers from Japan have now designed a novel sensor that easily fits into curved walls of fluid machines and can characterize flow separations at high speeds in different directions.
