  3. Clear-air turbulence - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Clear-air_turbulence

    Although the vast majority of cases of turbulence are harmless, in rare cases cabin crew and passengers on aircraft have been injured when tossed around inside an aircraft cabin during extreme turbulence. In a small number of cases, people have been killed and at least two aircraft disintegrated mid-air.

  4. Turbulence - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Turbulence

    In fluid dynamics, turbulence or turbulent flow is fluid motion characterized by chaotic changes in pressure and flow velocity. It is in contrast to laminar flow , which occurs when a fluid flows in parallel layers with no disruption between those layers.

    The turbulence is then extreme at this altitude. [11] Moreover, the diameters of the updraft columns vary between 2 km (air mass thunderstorm) and 10 km (supercell thunderstorm). [19] The height of the cumulonimbus base is extremely variable. It varies from a few tens of meters above the ground to 4000 m above the ground.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eddy_(fluid_dynamics)

    The propensity of a fluid to swirl is used to promote good fuel/air mixing in internal combustion engines.. In fluid mechanics and transport phenomena, an eddy is not a property of the fluid, but a violent swirling motion caused by the position and direction of turbulent flow.
