Encyclopedia > Fluidic triode

The fluidic triode is an amplification device that uses a fluid to convey the signal.


Although much studied in the laboratory they have few practical applications. Many expect them to be key elements of nanotechnology.


Fluidic triodes were used as the final stage in the main Public Address system at the 1964 New York World's Fair.

Fluidic mud pulse data transmission apparatus - Patent 4134100 (2400 words)
The discharge end of fluidic oscillator 14 is mounted in hole 24 of oscillator mounting section 20.
To control the operation of fluidic feedback oscillator 14 and thus enable the transmission of information by the system a hydraulically operated feedback valve is placed in each of the feedback passages 92 and 94.
For example, it will be recognized that fluidic feedback oscillator 14 would have the same effect if it were designed to have little or no hysteresis and the valves in feedback passages 92 and 94 were designed to fully close.
