Best Answer

The Coanda effect occurs due to the presence of a curved surface immersed in a flowing fluid when the surface curves away from the flow. The flow 1) causes a lowered pressure at the surface and 2) entrains fluid to flow towards the surface. The effect can be seen as smoke streams in a wind tunnel follow the shape of, e.g. a streamlined automobile.

Another example is a water flow adhering to the back of a spoon. This is caused primarily by the Van der Waals (surface tension) forces between the water and the surface of the spoon.

Was it a romanian that invented the jet engine?

A Romanian, Henri Coanda, developed an engine in 1910 that was similar to the modern jet engine. Coanda's engine required an external motor in addition to the jet engine so most people accept that his development is not classed as the jet engine that was later developed by Sir Frank Whittle in Britain. Whittle produced the first jet engine that was self supporting and ran without the aid of external equipment.
