A drag-reducing afterburner

This invention discloses a drag reduction and thrust reversal device, relating to the field of fluid dynamics technology. The invention includes a front drag reduction air intake assembly, an automatic rotary cutting assembly, two fluid delivery pipes, and the drag reduction and thrust reversal assembly. The automatic rotary cutting assembly is mounted on the front drag reduction air intake assembly. In this invention, the drag reduction and thrust reversal device, composed of the front drag reduction air intake assembly, the automatic rotary cutting assembly, the fluid delivery pipes, and the drag reduction and thrust reversal assembly, efficiently captures oncoming fluid through an inclined inlet at the front. A filter baffle at the inlet blocks large debris, which is then shredded and mixed by fluid-driven rotary cutting blades. The mixture is then transported through the fluid pipes to the end delivery pipes. Under the action of the tail jet pressurization device, the fluid forms a vortex and is ejected at high speed, generating reverse thrust. This converts oncoming resistance into propulsive power, directly propelling the ship forward, achieving the dual effects of drag reduction and thrust reversal, and converting drag energy into forward propulsion.
