Like Frank Lee pointed out, I drew arrows but in my own defense the arrows follow what I understand about boundary layer airflow and mass airflow.

There are a few patents based on similar principals but that don't mean they work as theorized, only that somebody spent money on a patent.

I have been unable to find air tunnel with smoke video of similar devices. However, it has been over a year since I searched.

Go to Youtube, Google and or Bing and do a search. Please post your findings in this thread if you come up with anything Wolf_TM.

I should note that Computational Fluid Dynamic models available to us amateurs may not be sophisticated enough for something so intricate.
