  spheroid

  This picture and this video are from San Diego State University and are of a "Prolate Spheroid" in a horizontal flow of about 10 cm/sec. The angle of attack is 20 deg, and dye injected through tubing in the model allows us to see the flow about the surface of the spheroid. The dye is a mixture of paint, thickener and alcohol.
