- Abstract
We present more considerations on how the Crookes's Radiometer works, a very didactical experiment, deepening and continuating previous disquisitions. The many formats that its vanes may have are considered for a better understanding of the many possible situations arising, and of its complex aerodynamics and thermodynamics. We see the similarity of this case to some ones in the history of science and engineering which showed that a presumed knowlegde lacked a better explanation.
