Secondary flow

Introduces the idea of secondary flow with the classical teacup experiment. Demonstrates secondary flow in a sink-vortex tank, a bend in an open channel and at the base of a strut in a shear flow. Explains in terms of pressure fields on boundary layers and vorticity conservation theorems.
