Apparatus and method for interaction with a fluid
Abstract:
A fluid interaction apparatus includes a wing having a first configuration with a first profile drag coefficient and a second configuration with a second profile drag coefficient that is less than the first profile drag coefficient. The fluid interaction apparatus further includes a body having a longitudinal axis, wherein the body is coupled to the wing. The fluid interaction apparatus further includes an actuator configured to change the wing from the first configuration when moving in a first direction relative to the body to the second configuration when moving in a second direction relative to the body, the second direction having a substantial component parallel to the longitudinal axis of the body.
