CoandaGate: Fluid Logic Sim

Explore the world of fluidics with CoandaGate, a dedicated simulator for studying fluid-based logic systems. This application allows you to interact with high-fidelity simulations of fluidic gates, demonstrating how gas or liquid can perform complex computations without electronic components.
Discover the Coandă effect—the tendency of a fluid jet to stay attached to a nearby surface. Learn how this phenomenon is harnessed to create bistable logic gates, such as AND and NAND configurations, by manipulating the lateral momentum of control jets.
Key Features:
• Interactive Logic Controls: Toggle input jets to influence the primary fluid stream and observe state transitions in real-time.
• Live Flow Visualization: Watch the fluid stream bend and attach to surfaces through a physics-based visualizer that illustrates flow dynamics.
• Pressure Profile Analysis: Monitor differential wall pressure through integrated gauges to understand the vacuum entrainment that locks the logic state.
• Physics Engine Insights: View the mathematical models behind the simulation, including momentum vector summation and deflection angle calculations.
• Engineering Documentation: Access educational content covering truth tables, bistable stability, and the history of fluidic computation.
Whether you are a student of fluid dynamics, a STEM enthusiast, or an engineering professional, CoandaGate provides a deep dive into a unique field of physics where fluid motion meets digital logic. Explore the mechanics of "logic without moving parts" and gain a practical understanding of momentum exchange and flow attachment.
