Fig. 8. Circuit model with nonlinear resistances.

Fig. 8

a Equivalent electronic circuit of the fluidic AC-to-DC converter, where the Tesla conduit is modeled as a `leaky diode’ with asymmetric resistance values. b Resistances vs. flow rate for forward (red) and reverse (blue) flow through Tesla’s conduit, as inferred from the data shown in Fig. 2. The DC branch resistance value is estimated via the Hagen-Poiseuille law.
