it is not only a question of understanding, but of availability of tools and
materials - e.g. if you run water through a copper pipe in the form of a
kuzu (some antilope) horn (=  has a slightly conical shape,  eggshaped
crosscut, with one quater of the egg introversed/dented in, that is
spiral-twisted around its own axis as well as corcsrewed, the graph that
depicts the friction in this goes sinuslike up and down, varying with the
initial pressure. at some point it even reaches NEAGTIVE friction (as also
tested by a german university in quite recent years) - sounds great - but
have you ever tried to manufacture such a pipe?
