Newsreels in which Dutch subjects of a certain week are presented.
The Flettner rotor consists of a vertical rotating cylinder, which uses wind to achieve an ongoing movement, e.g. to let a ship sail. Close up of experimental set-up on a table, where a rotating cylinder is placed near a wind machine and a rectilinear movement is achieved, various shots, 16 "+ 21". Drawn animation of the principle, 26 ".
