Can our feeble cold shower be from Bernoulli? Bernoulli is often incorrectly
stated as something like faster fluids create less pressure than slower
fluids and any time there is a velocity difference Bernoulli is touted out.
Bernoulli is basically a conservation law and is derived under very stringent
conditions where energy and mass are conserved. However, conditions in a
shower are so far removed from the conditions for which Bernoulli's Law is
derived that I find it difficult to see how it can have anything to do with
this phenomonon.
