RDHF (Rim Driven Hubless Fan) Analysis

The following remarks are from the Raptor NG Discussion thread starting on page 22 post #421.

I suspect by having the centre open the fan will work similar to the Dyson system where the air in the middle is added to the outside air to gain more thrust.

I have a $100 that says the air will flow backwards through that hole...any takers?

JEDI said

Yes, provided I can design the duct and specify the flight conditions.

Poormansairforce said

Nope, just like PM is suggesting.

I would, however, love to see where you're going with this. How about starting another thread?
