Following the discovery of May Luk I did a bit more with Google and came up
with the following URL which gives chapter and verse. It is a record of the
original research by Cyril Duez and his team.
http://lpmcn.univ-lyon1.fr/~lbocquet/teapot-prl.pdf

Not a mention of Bernoulli and his equation relating to energy in the
Streamline of Torricelli and his law relating to the rate of flow.
Those with an interest in the science of ceramic arts may realise that
having glazes whose surfaces are not readily wetted seem likely to display
the qualities these people. describe.
Now to make some teapots.
Sincere regards and thanks to all who have joined in on this thread.
