Plasma Wind Improves Truck Performance
Mar-29-17
An innovative truck design from KTH uses plasma-generated wind to increase the truck’s aerodynamics.Based in part on the science behind the vortex generators that enhance airplane lift, the system creates wind at the front of the truck using electric wind generated by a pair of plasma actuators. The actuators ionize and accelerate the surrounding air, creating a wall of wind that helps reduce drag.

This process was used by the Russians to increase top speed of their mark 3 jets making the air around to a a fluid composite that changed with all manouvers complimenting speed and handling ,the opposite of their 200klm? Torpedoes. In nature a few fish exhibit the same attribute,but open research has not confirmed to date.
