Rules:

*You can teleport into and out of it at will

*It has a couple of plug sockets and can connect to internet from the region you teleported in from

*You can take objects and people with you

*As already stated, it is 3m^3. The walls are plain plaster with a light in the middle of the ceiling. The pocket dimension is topologically toroidal, so if there weren’t walls and a ceiling/floor (which you can actually destroy) you would loop if you went more than 3m in any direction. Gravity, then, is artificial and can be altered to anywhere from 0 to 2g from a dial on the wall.

    No I think you’re right about the fluid dynamics aspect, as we do have an indefinitely long pipe, but in the prompt the walls do still exist, so they’ll probably do create some friction. The question is, would the rocks build up some sort of boundary layer of slower flowing particles near the wall, and how much do the boundary layer and “main” center flow mix?

    Thinking about it, it isn’t even an indefinitely long pipe really, as there are no “new” sections of wall coming up, instead it’s constantly passing the same section of wall, and same section of boundary layer…

    If someone knows how to simulate this in a physics engine or virtual air tunnel I’d be really interested in that!
