Bionic propeller
With their fanned wing tips, birds already use it longer than the age of mankind, and avionics made the retrofit in the last years. The topic is the principle to split up vortices at the wing tip, known as "winglets" in airplanes. The consequent further development in aero- and hydrodynamic terms led to a stunningly simple, but even more stunningly efficient propeller.
HASH(0x306172c)
Whether in aircraft propulsion, marine technology, wind energy or ventilators - this technically new design loses signifcantly less energy to tip vortices, provides an increased efficiency ratio, operates as silent as technically possible and comes with a self-stabilizing shape.
