An arrangement for transporting air with the aid of so-called ion-wind which includes at least one corona electrode and at least one target electrode is shown and described. The corona electrode is a thin wire electrode passing from one side of a duct to another, and the target electrode has a shape such that the distance between the corona electrode and the target electrode is less in the region of the corona electrode ends than in the corona electrode middle. This placement of the electrodes closer together at the ends of the wire electrode provides a uniform corona current over the whole length of the elongated corona electrode which provides the most uniform air flow over the entire cross-sectional area of the duct in which the electrodes are mounted.
