Good educational site for fluid dynamics (with an impressive gallery of flow images)

Another impressive gallery of flow visualization images, this time from the University of Iowa
Boundary Layers
A nice guide through the theory behind boundary layers, from Clyde Virtual University. Very informative and not nearly as dodgy as it sounds.
