Howdy David,
Fun stuff, You may consider the parallels between induction ( an electrical 
term) and ionized air. I have found a friend in this method of thinking when 
reasoning liquid dynamics.Whenever I reach a level of what I believe is an 
understanding of fluid dynamics, I start the motor on our water test unit and 
watch the random vortex shed off the main vortex when ramping up the speed of 
the "inducer" . I have  found  that watching these supposed "random events" to 
repeat themselves which provides me a most interesting and a better visual 
picture of the term "induction". One of the best of the old time engineers in 
natural gas back in Houston many years ago, perhaps had a  grasp.. he explained 
gas laws as being " fluid"  which requires a certain amount of elastic in the 
brain in order to estimate how much "fudge factor" to add to make the equation 
balance <grin>.
