A new type of device, useful as a fan among other applications, in which fluid flow is induced by providing within the device a chamber of constantly increasing volume and a chamber of constantly decreasing volume. Fluid moves through these chambers impelled by the rotation of a pair of members linked together for rotation about skewed axes. The members move within a chamber having a spherical surface, into which open ports for inward and outward fluid flow. The device may be used to assist in cooling components of an electronic system such as a computer system.
