The double diffuser worked by routing air from below the car up to above the car - ideally using the beam wing to help drive the process. By doing this, you increase the mass flow of air below the floor. This increases downforce. In simple terms.

A good lot of pictures and discussion about the R30 double/triple diffuser here:

If you are more fortunate than others, build a larger table not a taller fence.
