I think what he is saying is that the end of the fins, where the water enters is half blocked off, ie a sudden reduction in cross-sectional area.

There was a thread earlier which mentioned that various curved profiles would reduce the pressure drop associated with an orifice plate, allowing for a greater velocity.

Is this what you mean BB2k?
