Flow at throat
Purely axial
Primary function: confined hot/cold mixing.
Flow arrives mostly swirling (15°) at the rim, transitions to mostly
axial (74°) at the toroid throat. Hot and cold meet with |Δv|=135
— tangential and axial components fully opposed.
Tesla-valve geometry passively resists backflow.
To convert to thrust: reduce exit elevation from 77° to ~30° so hot/cold exits share a z-direction.
