Experiments on vortex energy recovery by favourable interference between wing and shrouded fan

Wind tunnel tests were conducted to investi gate t he effect of placing a propulsion fan behind the tip of a li.tting ring for the purpose of recovering the energy in the trailing vortex. Results indicated tha~ significant increase of thrust could be obtained as a result of vortex energy recovery. I...
