A circle is inscribed in a square with sides = 40.
A smaller (of course!) circle tangent to the above
circle and 2 sides of the square is inscribed in
one of the corners of the square.
What is the diameter of this circle?
How do you increase torque in gerotor design other than increasing flow. Will lengthening it increase torque? Will increasing diameter increase torque? What about running 2 or 3 in series?

Textbooks say it decreases flow. But, when I think about it...
If you blow through a small straw, you are blowing out less volume. But wouldn't the speed of flow be higher, therefore making up for the decrease in volume?
Like this:
