Claim 8:
9. A weeping wall comprising:
a wall body including a magnetic material layer extending along at least a portion of a flow surface receiving a continuous flow of flowable substance running downwardly thereon, the magnetic material layer having a forward face and including a layer of non-corrosive, non-magnetic material extending along the forward face and defining the flow surface of the wall body;
a flowable substance inlet positioned at an upper end of the flow surface and releasing a flow of the flowable substance;
a flowable substance outlet positioned at a lower end of the flow surface and receiving a flow of the flowable substance, the flowable substance outlet being in fluid communication with a reservoir collecting and storing the flowable substance;
a pump constantly moving the flowable substance from the reservoir to the flowable substance inlet;
at least one mobile deflector movably engaged to the flow surface using a magnet and projecting therefrom, each one of the at least one mobile deflector being sized and shaped to disrupt the flow of flowable substance dripping down the flow surface and being magnetically held in place on the flow surface to be selectively movable relative to the flow surface to modify a flow path of the flowable substance on the flow surface.
