Abstract
An apparatus configured with two subsystems comprising a torus tube, linear flow, and turboplant assemblies that form of cavity for externally supplied and rotating subsonic working fluid. The working fluid rotation is provided by turboplant assemblies with throttle control. The rotating working fluid inside the cavities will conserve angular momentum. As a result of the conservation of angular momentum, poinsot flow fields are seen within the working fluid. A stable, resultant force is generated from the pressure and area forces inside the cavity. The apparatus usage is either with manual operation or as an unmanned, autonomous vehicle.
