Abstract
A magnus rotor designed for high speed operation. Aerodynamic drag is reduced by lessening the air density around endplates and half the radial surface of the rotor by installing a circuit of aerodynamic seals to enclose a vacuum about the internal volume of the rotor as well as the endplates and half the radial surface of the rotor.
