[MBZ] Bladeless electric fan
This looks pretty cool: http://www.ft.com/cms/s/0/5ba62a00-b755-11de-9812-00144feab49a.html Adapted for auto use, could be used to replace the radiator cooling fan and the HVAC fan, probably save weight and increase reliability.

Yes, perfect for those green-car type folks who want 60+ mpg but all the modern luxuries. I suspect the price will drop once the Chinese get their factories tooled up.

Re: [MBZ] Bladeless electric fan
I'd like to put one of these fans on my 66 MGB but I think I'll wait for those evil rich people to buy and try them - that'll eventually push the price down into the reasonable range! ;-) It'd be nice to get rid of the fan blade! Jus not nice enough to pay over $300. for one. LarryT 91 300D Does your business accept or need to accept V/MC/AE/Dis? We have the best rates 0% Interest Business loans.

Sure sounds like a venturi - and one of those air compressor powered vacuum pumps -- Not a bad mark-up for $5 or $10 of parts and plastic!

Re: [MBZ] Bladeless electric fan
Venturi effect is my first thought, too, but I'd bet the basic air mover is a bladed fan/pump of some type - and noisy.
