Abstract
A housing for a propulsion system, such as for a plurality of disks, is provided as well as a system and a method for using the same. The housing is shaped to provide a streamlined motion through a fluid, such as air or water. Openings in the housing allow the fluid to flow through the propulsion system. The housing may be attached to a shaft in a motor or engine to provide a drive for the propulsion system contained therein.
Claims10
A system comprising:
- a housing having a polygonal shape and having a first end, a planar second end and a planar first side substantially perpendicular to the second end wherein the first side is integrally formed between the first end and the second end and wherein the first side substantially meets the second end at a right angle and the first side substantially meets the first end at an obtuse angle and wherein the housing has an interior compartment defined between the first end and the second end, and further an interior compartment, wherein the interior compartment contains a plurality of disks, and further wherein the first end of the housing has a wedge shape;
- a first intake opening on the first side of the housing, wherein the intake opening is located between the first end of the housing and the plurality of disks;
- an outflow opening at the planar second end of the housing;
- and
- a propulsion system having a plurality of disks within the interior compartment of the housing.
2 more elements
A method of using a disk propulsion system, the method comprising the steps of:
- providing a housing having a polygonal shape and having a first end, a planar second end and a planar first side substantially perpendicular to the second end wherein the first side is integrally formed between the first end and the second end and wherein the first side substantially meets the second end at a right angle and the first side substantially meets the first end at an obtuse angle and wherein the housing has an interior compartment defined between the first end and the second end, and further an interior compartment wherein the first end of the housing has a wedge-shape and further wherein the housing has a first intake opening in the planar first side of the housing, and further wherein the housing has an outflow opening in the planar second end of the housing;
- and
- providing a propulsion system having a plurality of disks within the interior compartment of the housing.
