A generally triangular shaped device with one right angle attached to a magnetic base whose magnetic field strength can range from 100 gauss to 17000 gauss that attaches via magnetic forces to a flat surface. The device is to be positioned so that the leading edge of the device which is the hypotenuse of the right angled triangle faces the flowing medium, with the right angle of the triangle faces away from the flowing medium in which this device will be installed. The device when placed in medium will turn and reorient turbulent low speed flow of the medium into straighten, high speed medium, with a vortex being generated at the tip of the shape. The height of the device being between the 1 to 1.5 times the dimension of the magnetic base.
