<VV> Flow/Pressure/Cooling

[jvhroberts at aol.com]

 Joel, don't hold your breath on this one. 

Unless there's a major change in flow regime, (and the Reynolds number is far too low for this to be the case) flow will always go with the square of the pressure drop.

Does someone have any references for this?  IF this is true I doubt we would 
ever get to this point in our application.  I have a hard time believing that 
increasing the pressure could actually decrease flow.  I'm not claiming that it 
is needed.  That's a different debate.

Exactly right.  Both theory of fluid dynamics and  experimental data show
that at some point, an increased differential in  pressure through a nozzle
(cooling fins) has no increase in flow and can  actually lead to a decrease
in flow.
