🚰 Siphon 3D Physics Simulation: Bernoulli Flow, Atmospheric Pressure Limit and Cavitation at the Crest (2D)

A 3D physics simulation of a siphon between two tanks: raise the crest to see the pressure fall along the hose, find the 10 m atmospheric limit for water (0.76 m for mercury), watch flow choke when the liquid boils, and time the tanks levelling out.
