Critical
[edit]I came here to understand one thing, namely in what regard these things are critical or even supercritical .. and did not find an answer. So if I have not overlooked it (in which case I would suggest to place that information more visibly and closer to the top) I would believe that adding that information would be highly educational since an explanation for the very name of the beast surely includes further information about its physical nature.

- To maybe answer my own question, it seems that the thing that gets critical is the Reynolds number in regard to laminar flow. Somebody familiar with the topic hopefully might be able to express this in a useful. JB. --92.193.245.36 (talk) 10:11, 24 September 2024 (UTC)
