Looking for a new design in airplane propulsion. Saw it in popular science. cylinder rotates in wing. Any help

louvered cylinders rotate to provide faster air-flow over top of wing, and to provide forward movement for aircraft. works at a lower rpm than conventional propellers (about 1,000 rpms).Looking for a new design in airplane propulsion. Saw it in popular science. cylinder rotates in wing. Any help
look up bernoulis theorum...this will tell you all you need to know reference changes in pressure with respect to aeronatical engineering.

I think you're thinking of the fanwing, interesting design. Pretty STOL(I've done some work in the S/VTOL field), not very fast though. A new idea might be to combine this sort of wing with a conventional means of thrust. Although you'd have to contend with the very high drag on this setup in high subsonic flight.
