(N/A) Turbulence dissipates kinetic energy,usually in the form of heat.
Racing cars and planes are engineered to precision in order to minimize turbulence.
On the other hand,turbulence is sometimes desirable. Turbulence promotes mixing and increases the rates of transfer of mass,momentum,and energy.
The blades of a kitchen mixer induce turbulent flow,which helps in preparing thick milkshakes and beating eggs into a uniform texture.
