Fluid Lab: Test one change

Fluid Lab: predict what will happen, change one part of the model, and use the result to explain this idea: Test how channel shape changes the direction and speed of visible water flow.

Model

A water table with two channels, garden, sandcastle, and large flow arrows

Keep everything else the same so one change can be compared fairly.
