Yes this is named after Nikola Tesla. This is a part of such a valve, that if looped enough times (more times that shown here), becomes effective in allowing flow preferentially in 1 direction (from right). BTW the pressure simulator isnt 100% realistic.

    @NoVIcE, Which part of the air sim do you find unrealistic (as you have mentioned inside the save)?

    @DUC The resulting pressure was equal, which isnt very realistic.

    I might suggest testing this out using FAN. FAN creates more velocity than pressure, while PUMP creates only pressure.

    @cellman123 actually it updated, just slower
