Toroidal Counter-electrode for Ionic Thruster
A novel design that provides significantly improved thrust performance over existing rotary ionic engines using similar propellers. Background: Corona wind, also known as ionic or electric wind, is the airflow induced by electrostatic forces arising at the tips of some sharp conductors. Pin tips and sharp metal edges produce local electrical discharges...

An Eco-friendly Propulsion System for Long-flying, Stealthier Drones
Ion wind propellers powerful enough to enable an aircraft to lift off under its own power, allowing for lighter, cheaper drones. Background: In 2018 researchers at SUNY Oswego achieved a first-of-its-kind flight driven by ionic wind, which could open a new field of development. The team achieved further unique developments working in collaboration...
