HI!

Thank Odin I found you!

-

I have a conceptual wheel design idea that I feel that only you can accomplish a successful design...

Before I email you some rambling wall of text, would you be open to hearing about some crazy concepts?

--

TL;DR:

The idea is to use Toroidal Propellers as 'spokes' in various light-weight, 3d-printable 'turbines', along with wind-shrouds to force vector air current to dynamos... specifically in various scaled applications for objects which already have a rotational input (shaft, wheel, spinny thing, etc)

Open to hearing from the loony bin?

Where read thesis?

Also, I am Norwegian! (but from Ballard, Seattle)

People tend to think of 'scaled' as in "LARGER" -- but it can also be used to refer to smaller...

Think of toroidal pumps in tiny bio tubes (veins, maybe, distributed heart pumping/nutrients pumping to isolated bio-assets (simulate pumping of heart of external bio-fluids to individually separated muscles connected to a biovascular pump system that can mimic the actual heart pattern of a donor to keep tissue happy) perhaps?)

Anyway -- its the evolution of Davinci's first documenting the importance of eddies, which we later discovered is how pumps work...
