Also, recumbent bicycles are among the fastest and most efficient bikes out there (although I prefer traditional ones personaly). My point is that if you're using a couple amps for a long period of time to spin a tube which is supplementing and helping along a traditional propulsion system, that propulsion system will be more efficient and faster overall. After all, it's not the tube that creating the force, it's the wind. And to be fair, the whole point of this video is to show case a cool science concept, it has nothing to do with proving viability. None of this stuff scales particularly well either.

Hi Bruce - Great experiment. I never knew about this kind of rotor before. A few questions, that I hope you can address, perhaps in a new video: 1. Is it always required for the wind direction to be perpendicular to the rotor? Can the wind vector be at any angle and still generate the same amount of forward motion power? 2. What happens if the wind is exactly behind or ahead of the craft? If it is akin to a sailboat, can the craft move directly upstream or downstream relative to the wind flow? 3. Finally, wouldn't a rotor with fins or blades be more efficient to spin the rotor?
@sambrusco672
2 жыл бұрын
My thoughts exactly! I will refer to this diagram iveybusinessreview.ca/wp-content/uploads/2018/04/Hapag-Lloyd-Graphic-2-Rotor-Magnus-Effect.png If the wind is coming perpendicular from the left (the port side), and the Flettner rotor is spinning clockwise when viewed from above, the thrust will move the ship forward. Yay! All is right in the world! If the wind is coming perpendicular from the right (the starboard side), and the Flettner rotor’s mechanized spin is REVERSED to be counter-clockwise, the thrust will move the ship forward. Yay! All is right in the world! But it seems that if it’s coming from any other angle, the thrust would continue to add to the ship’s forward motion, BUT IT WOULD ALSO PUSH THE SHIP OFF COURSE. So, if you are traveling from China to Los Angeles, you could end up in Mexico or Canada (if you don’t compensate by steering). This is similar to flying an airplane. You can point the plane in the direction of Washington DC, but you need to compensate for the lateral forces of the winds aloft. So my QUESTION is, can the Flettner rotor’s thrust be directed beyond reversing the Flettner’s motor (or shutting it off)? By the way, if you WANTED to go backwards (to stern) or sideways, I suppose the Flettner could be used under favorable conditions. But I don’t see that as useful except to avoid collisions or in port, and in port I would think the thrust would not be precise enough. One other thought. It would seem to me that the Flettner rotor would at least increase drag if the ship is not perpendicular to the wind. Then again, winds push ships off course all the time, because they are so darn tall and long.

My question is: why not just use a regular sail as it does not require any outside energy? I suppose it means the flettner is only useful in making another source of propulsion more efficient. Ultimately lowering the air pressure in front and increasing it in the back to create forward motion is what makes turboprops and turbojets work anyway. So I presume it’s just about Flettners increasing aerodynamics to not only reduce drag but to use the force of the drag to increase efficiency.

The MV Estraden has two operational Flettner rotors on it and the company is claiming about a 6% fuel savings on average for the route it normally runs. That's nothing to scoff at. Initial testing took place in 2015 with one rotor, then another was added increasing fuel savings from over 2% to over 6%. Their data suggest a similar vessel with larger rotors running the same route, or on other routes, or with ships specifically designed to take advantage of this technology (rather than being retrofitted) might be able to achieve 20% fuel savings (though to date real world tests suggest about a 15% maximum). This is something some shipping companies are seriously looking into, especially given that we can now construct these rotors from lightweight composite materials that are very strong and computer control systems and various measurement devices are very accurate. Because they take up deck space they can get in the way of cargo, or loading operations, or cause problems when winds are dangerous, so collapsible systems (now also possible due to new materials) are being considered. There are now many real world examples being tested and in use...

Thanks for the post Derek, I hope I didn't come across as scoffing at the idea of the rotors being used on ships but going back and rewatching my video, I think I did. As you have stated the savings can be significant but the use of the rotors is still in it's infancy compared to the number of ships that could benefit from them but haven't made that commitment. It is a positive note that at least they are actively considering these to help reduce their fuel consumption.

This is an excellent video that demonstrates the workings of this technology in a way that anyone can test themselves. I can't think of any video of yours that I've watched that didn't impress me.

As a windpower experimenter I wanted to know if the surface finish on the Flettner cylinder makes a difference to the force. So I was interested to know if the "square" rotor was better than the circular or not. But you did not say if there was a difference in the force. This is quite important to know as it effects the design of how to get the best rotor. All of the designs of rotors on ships appear to have smooth surfaces, but if they had a dimpled surface like a golf ball would that make them better? Someone needs to do research into this.

It would be interesting to see the experiment without the spinning rotor(rotor sitting still) like you showed us, but with a wind guard instead of you directing the wind flow with the blower hose. A guard that allows you to have wind applied to the entire device, like the spinning rotor allows, but directs it to only flow past one side of the rotor causing forward motion. To see if it actually can work, if so then you don't need the spinning motor and batteries, but a guard. IT would be a huge experiment finding the right shape guard that will possibly work. If you can direct more stray wind to one side than the other just by shape, then it might move. but then we will find out the sail is already got it all beat. lol But at least we learn more specifics about fluids.

Hmmm. What if…you put vertical cylinders at the rear corners of a car? They could be powered by the wind, and use their spinning to pump air into the wake zone behind the car, decreasing drag. Additionally, cylinders geared to spin the opposite direction could pump air from the rear diffuser, lowering underbody pressure, increasing downforce.

Nice intro in this topic. But many questions are not answered. Like: Why rotating the cylinder? What effect has the rotation? Is the force greater if the cylinder rotates compared to the case when it does not rotate? How does the force changes in case the cylinder has a surface like a golf ball? @04:24 Can the force be increased by avoiding turbulence's? The conclusion is also missing: Stop the video at 04:24 and while you think about this: In case the rotation has no force increasing effect you can "transform" the profile (= a circle, which is a "cut through a cylinder") to a classic plane wing. But the wing is more effective due reducing turbulence's. Or sticking to boats: You get a special sail. "Special" because the standard sail "catches" more the wind than uses the benefits from aerodynamics. Conclusion: But a plane wing (with winglets) on a boat, take care that its well orientated / in-line with the wind and you get the max. force. Waiitng for an A.I. that calculates the optimal shape for us. (Or even better an "object" that changes his shape regarding to the current wind speed.)

Sorry Bruce, I must disagree. The thrust from a Flettner rotor will always be 90° to the wind direction. In a headwind, I think you would stop spinning the Flettner, otherwise it would push you perpendicular to your course. If you were to change course to “take advantage” of the wind coming from your intended destination, you would be going sideways. Cargo ships don’t travel well sideways.

what if instead of spinning the cylinder you cut the cylinder in half with the round side facing forward? It would look more like a sail. So... what if regular sails were tubes, pulled tighter across the back to make a semi-cylindrical shape, held apart by ribs. I'm guessing sailing ships achieve a similar effect just by using multiple sails, and that it's how they manage to sail into a headwind.

What’s a “push bike”? Do you mean a regular bicycle with pedals? Roads curve and wind directions change “rapidly” on land. Not so much on the ocean. You would need to be constantly adjusting the Flettner rotor’s spinning speed and direction of spin. I also think that you would usually have more of a headwind by the propulsion of your own two feet. That headwind will direct the thrust to the side, not so good for a bicycle. There’s another device with a propeller that might work. I’ll see if I can find the video.

I think the latter part of your statement is correct. Ribs introduce small vortices. The objective is not to turn the rotor; that’s done mechanically by a separate motor. The objective is to create lower pressure towards the bow (front) of the ship, to create forward thrust. Skyscrapers no longer go straight up, like The Twin Towers did in New York. The floors change shape as they reach skyward, as the Freedom Tower that was built in its place. This is known as “confusing the wind”.

I see Newton's Third Law at work here: Whenever one object exerts a force on another object, the second object exerts an equal and opposite on the first.
