A propulsion system includes a conduit and a fluid flow generator. The conduit has an elongated cavity having an inlet portion and an outlet portion. A fluid flow generator is disposed in the conduit. The fluid flow generator is configured to receive a fluid to generate an inlet flow through the inlet portion and to generate an outlet flow through the outlet portion. The outlet flow is configured to generate thrust on a vehicle mounted with the fluid flow generator and the conduit, and at least one of the inlet portion or the outlet portion is curved into a circle to change the direction of any of the respective input flow or output flow.
