Active Fluidic Turn-Down Rectifier
Paper discusses a device belonging into an interesting and yet little-known family of no-moving-part active fluidic rectifiers. The generated steady component of flow and pressure are driven by input alternating flow from an external source. The absence of moving components results in the unique capability of unlimited life and reliability, especially useful for safety devices. In the experiment, the rectifier generated a pressure keeping dangerous liquid in the active zone. When the driving oscillation stops (like, e.g., due to coolant loss), the liquid leaves the zone under gravity, stopping the performed reaction. This safety facility is simple, inexpensive, and extremely reliable.
