Constructal Law Meets Building Science - Flow Systems Are Everywhere

It’s not often that you get to have a discussion with someone who has uncovered a fundamental physical law of the universe, but that’s exactly what we got to do in this unmissable episode. In a very entertaining and fascinating departure from our usual discussion of building science, we dive deeply into the concepts underlying Contstructal Law with its discoverer, Professor Adrian Bejan of Duke University. Our conversation ranged from HG TV, to the golden ratio in architecture, to the evolution of Homo sapiens, to fake news, and so much more. Join us as Kristof tries to uncover the mysteries of flow structures that prevent us from creating better buildings and we’ll also learn why a duct system, river, leaf, and lightning bolt are all shaped so similarly. Buckle up and hold on to your hats, folks!
