peer agreement (net): +1rotacioni cilindar Explanation: University of Split, Faculty of Maritime Studies - Flettnerov rotor prvi put se pojavio dvadesetih godina prošlog stoljeća. Rotor koristi Magnusov učinak mehanike fluida (slika 18), gdje vjetar prolazi kroz rotacioni cilindar koji stvara silu poriva. - Tipični rotor se sastoji cilindra sa učvršćenim poklopcem na vrhu i postavljen okomito na palubu broda [6]. https://repozitorij.pfst.unist.hr/islandora/object/pfst:406/... -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 5 hrs (2020-10-28 20:47:09 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- Science - ... passenger ship owned by Viking Line will be outfitted with spinning cylinders on their decks. Mounted vertically and up to 10 stories tall, these “rotor sails” could slash fuel consumption up to 10%, saving transportation companies hundreds of thousands of dollars and cutting soot-causing carbon emissions by thousands of tons per trip. - Rotor sails rely on a bit of aerodynamics known as the Magnus effect. https://www.sciencemag.org/news/2017/09/spinning-metal-sails... |
