 +The idea is to make a small orographic cloud in a box. 
 +Modelling could give the parameters: temperature gradient, air velocity, expansion and cooling rate, ... under which it would theoretically be possible?
 +
 +If not an "orographic cloud", would there be other ways to create a permanent cloud in a box?
 +
 +A couple of thoughts: 
 +- one way we do produce a cloud in a box or bottle is to pump down the pressure and then allow air to rush in , the adiabatic cooling does then produce a cloud for a short period. The big issue is that the cloud is very transient due to rapid loss of droplets to the walls.That is always going to be an issue.
 +- another method of obtaining a stationary cloud might be to blow a mixture of steam and cold air through the box as shown in the above diagram.
 +
 +DIY oplossing:
 +stoom en koude lucht tegen elkaar in blazen. 
 +Daarvoor zou dan "alleen" een luchtcompressor nodig zijn + een kookketel + box.
