  2. Magnus effect - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Magnus_effect

    The topspinning cylinder "pulls" the airflow up and the air in turn pulls the cylinder down, as per Newton's Third Law. On a cylinder, the force due to rotation is an example of Kutta–Joukowski lift. It can be analysed in terms of the vortex produced by rotation.

  3. NACA cowling - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/NACA_cowling

    The cowling consists of a symmetric, circular airfoil that is wrapped around the engine. In a normal planar airfoil, like a wing, the difference in airspeeds, and their associated changes in pressure, on the top and bottom surfaces, enhances lift. In the case of the NACA cowl, the ring-shaped airfoil is positioned so this lift effect is forward.

  4. Rotor wing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rotor_wing

    The craft would then tilt over to horizontal flight and lift would be provided by cyclic pitch variation of the rotor wings, with the wing tip ramjets now angled to provide forward thrust. [ 5 ] A few years later the American Vought XF5U circular-winged fighter prototype was designed with large radial-lift propellers.

  5. Rotor ship - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rotor_ship

    The vessel was a refitted schooner which carried two cylinders (or rotors) approximately 15 metres (50 ft) high, and 3 metres (10 ft) in diameter, driven by an electric propulsion system of 50 hp (37 kW) power. [citation needed] The Buckau sailed from Danzig to Scotland across the North Sea in February 1925. [9]

  6. Flettner rotor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flettner_rotor

    The Buckau, the first vehicle to be propelled by a Flettner rotor. A Flettner rotor is a smooth cylinder with disc end plates which is spun along its long axis and, as air passes at right angles across it, the Magnus effect causes an aerodynamic force to be generated in the direction perpendicular to both the long axis and the direction of airflow. [1]

  7. Kutta–Joukowski theorem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kutta–Joukowski_theorem

    The Kutta–Joukowski theorem is a fundamental theorem in aerodynamics used for the calculation of lift of an airfoil (and any two-dimensional body including circular cylinders) translating in a uniform fluid at a constant speed so large that the flow seen in the body-fixed frame is steady and unseparated.
