those are good illustrations hannu. two things i noticed with my 20 litre bucket experiment, first, the whole thing remained quite rigid inspite of having 50% of its surface removed. second , the object looked very pleasing to the eye when it was rotating. i experimented by cutting a slit in some plastic tubing and pushing that onto the leading edge. it responded better but my next step will be to apply the tubing to the out side edge as you have depicted. what are your thoughts on solidity as a percentage? the airfoil profiles you have drawn look "right". this is where the real science is required , to produce the opptimun ratio between vain thick ness and vain width. you are considering using cloth as a surface, to allow the airfoil to form itself? consider this, if the sections of the surface removed to form the rotors (waste)were reapplyed along with the tubing over the remaining sections it would create a profile similar to that which you have drawn.
