MIT proof-of-concept demo of ionic wind propulsion for aircraft

Green Car Congress

NOVEMBER 22, 2018

MIT researchers have demonstrated that an aircraft with a 5-meter wingspan can sustain steady-level flight using ionic-wind propulsion. The researchers describe their proof of concept for electroaerodynamic (EAD) airplane propulsion in a paper in the journal Nature. The MIT team’s final design resembles a large, lightweight glider.
