Vortex amplifier internal geometry and its effect on performance

Consideration of the internal geometry of a vortex amplifier reveals eight geometrical ratios that describe the device. The effects of each of these ratios on the performance of a vortex amplifier are considered and experimental results presented. The most significant ratios when designing for vorte...
