Abstract:

A theoretical analysis of signal gain using principles of fluid stream interaction is presented. This analysis is applied to predict pressure, flow, and power gains of a fluid amplifier and to determine optimum operating conditions and geometry. Comparison of theory and measurements show agreement within the experimental error.
