How about a low pressure turbine?

This reminded me  of an article in Popular Science

way back in the 70's the concept  of having

tips on the end  of hollow blades creating a

vaccum that operated low-pressure turbine at

the base...the turbine could be made from a

torque converter?

    Has anyone made one of these or considered

it?
