ABSTRACT:
Yaw track means for fluid impact impellers of a Toroidal Accelerator Rotor Platform (TARP) providing for revolution or yaw motion about a vertical centroidal TARP axis to a plurality of interconnected impact impellers supported and guided on said track means within the TARP's peripheral fluid flow augmentor channel. Said impact impellers, which may provide shaft output to electric generators, may actuate the yawing motion on said track means from a steady state position via differential forces acting upon said impellers, from directionally shifting flow impacting a TARP. Impeller yaw response motion will subsequently vector said impellers on said track means into a new steady state and impeller thrust force-balanced position within the TARP peripheral flow field for best energy recovery and energy extraction from said flow field.
