Abstract
A valve system () controls the fluid flow between an inlet () and an outlet (). The system () splits the flow into two parallel flow ducts () and recombines the flows through opposed tangential inlets () and () of a fluidic vortex valve () which has an axial outlet (). An adjustable valve () controls the flow through one of the parallel flow ducts (), controlling the strength of the vortex generated within the vortex valve (). Hence a small valve () can control and adjust the flows in both ducts (and).
