Principles and factors of forces created by relatively cylindrical rotating members in path of fluid flow are discussed; applications of Flettner and Savonius rotors to aircraft; number of wings giving greatest torsional power and Magnus pressure found to be two; wing rotors compared with airplane wing; lift reactions.
