By drawing in a small amount of air from the intake, pressurizing it using an impeller, and squirting it through the outlet, this generates a pressure imbalance and a considerable amount of thrust, which extends the full length of the cylinders.

I'm having a problem seeing how that doesn't consume as much or more power than it "saves". You know, that whole law of conservation of energy thing.

“I’m having a problem seeing how that doesn’t consume as much or more power than it “saves”. You know, that whole law of conservation of energy thing.”

The latest instance of a PMM - perpetual motion machine. I assume someone is sucking on the teat of government grants to push this idiocy.

It doesn’t save energy. It gets energy from the motion of air molecules.

Exactly! Sounds like a turbine. No where does it say how much energy it takes to blow this air out and how much trust it produces.

Another application of unicorn farts.
