Abstract: A frictionally reduced hull is provided for a marine vessel, the hull having a water line, a bow end and an aft end. The hull has a first opening below the water line and a second opening below the water line. The first opening is closer than the second opening to the bow end. A first conduit extends from the first opening to the second opening, whereby water flows into the conduit through the first opening and passes through the conduit from the first opening towards the second opening, exiting at the second opening. A second conduit extends into the first conduit between the first opening and the second opening, fluid being drawn into the first conduit via the second conduit and exiting at the second opening.

Abstract: Formations on the surface of bodies for reducing the drag relative to a medium which the body is located in or close to. The formations comprise a plurality of cavities (1,20,40,60). The surface in which the cavities are formed is closed. The cavity has a disruption edge (5,25,44,66) adjacent to the cavity, with the disruption edge located upstream of the cavity, so as to set the flowing medium most proximal to the surface into turbulence upon passing the disruption edge. The cavity has a maximum depth from the surface of at least approximately 2 mm.

Abstract: The system includes radiation generation and transmission components which radiate tuned microwave electromagnetic energy outwardly from a vehicle through an antenna into a fluid medium through which the vehicle is moving. The microwave radiation is at the frequency of harmonic resonance electromagnetic excitation of the molecules of the medium which produces efficient heating of the fluid resulting in a reduction of the mass density thereof. This reduction decreases the drag forces acting on the vehicle resulting in a greatly enhanced aerodynamic and/or hydrodynamic efficiency and also decreases the intensity of the shock waves (which often lead to sonic booms). An aircraft's dramatically higher speed in the surrounding rarefied medium can make it appear to be travelling at "supersonic" speeds.

Abstract: An improved aerodynamic surface for the exterior of vehicles moving through a gas and vehicles employing such improved surfaces. The improved surface comprises a matrix of dimples or depressions formed into the portions of the surface of the vehicle. The improved surface is most beneficially located either at a leading edge, where the vehicle first cleaves the pool of air through which it is traveling, or on vehicle surfaces which tend to move the air pool to accommodate the presence of the vehicle itself or on vehicle surfaces to which the designer wishes to provide a lift function. Wings, ailerons and rudder surfaces are examples of surfaces to which a lift function is most applicable. The vehicle may be of the nature of an automobile, a boat or an airplane. The invention is also applicable to the internal surface of pipes for conveying fluid.

Abstract: The boundary layer of a fluid travelling in a mean-flow direction relative to a surface of a wall of a body is controlled by generating in a near-wall region of the flow a magnetic field B having flux lines parallel to the surface of the wall and an electric current density J traversing the magnetic flux lines in the fluid. An electrolyte or other conductivity-enhancing material is introduced into the flow to provide an electrical conductivity gradient in the near-wall region. The magnetic field B and the electric current density J create in the fluid a force J.times.B having a component normal to the surface of the wall that because of the increased conductivity gradient near the surface can stabilize or destabilize flow in the boundary layer. Numerous aspects of the fluid flow and its interaction with the body can thus be controlled. As examples, shear stress in the fluid at the wall can be decreased, with a corresponding reduction in viscous drag, the characteristics of the acoustic and pressure fields in the fluid surrounding the body can be controlled to reduce noise and fatigue, and boundary layer separation can be inhibited or induced.
