Abstract

A high 'G' gyro that has a rotor mounted relative to a stator by a fluidic earing with fluidic exhaust control means for producing a lower pressure at the exhaust for the fluidic bearing to prevent the exhaust from the fluidic bearing from impinging on other portions of the rotor to cause error signals to be produced. By locating the exhaust for the fluidic bearing radially outwardly from the inlet ports to the fluidic bearing, and by producing a lower pressure at the exhaust, the exhaust fluids from the bearing are attracted to the exhaust and prevented from impinging and exerting undesirable forces on the rotor.
