I wonder if you could make it in the form of a tree, where you took the leaves and wrapped them around to join the roots, like an inside out donut.
So in the middle you'd have your conjoined mega stream, and then that would flow upward, be separated out into filaments which then curl around in all directions down to the roots where they are re-merged into the megastream.
Probably too much turbulence at the branches, but maybe they can use vibration and learning to find beneficial harmonics. I would hire sound engineers.
I just have an intuition that a single stream will never have adequate confinement and you'll need redundancy in the geometry to get good concentration.
- bdamm 9y agoYou should build your design and tell us if it works. Or even better, patent it and maybe make millions from licensing it to a conglomerate.
- erikpukinskis 9y agoWhy would I build it? You have to model this stuff computationally before you even have a whiff of an idea whether it would work.
