That's pretty cool. The curved side channel actually pushes the main flow into the next side channel.
I wonder if a fractal version of this would work better. And what if there were side channels on the top and bottom too.
Of course, this will always pass some fluid. but if you need a complete shutoff valve, combining it with the tesla valve would allow you to use a smaller one and makes its failure less traumatic.
