The inventor's 'valvular conduit' design could be adapted for modern vehicles.
Nikola Tesla's"valvular conduit" design, also known today as the"Tesla valve", was patented in 1920. The design, essentially a series of interconnected keychain-shaped loops, was created to enable fluid to pass in only one direction with no moving parts.If you send fluid through one end of the"valvular conduit" it loops back in on itself, impeding the flow. Send it in the other direction, however, and it flows freely.
They also found that the valve works best when the flow of water comes in pulses or oscillation, which are converted by the device into a smoothly directed output of fluid.
