These are a result of increased turbulence and entrainment of air at higher altitudes by the simulated turbines.

And, similar to Dyson, Lugg is proposing to achieve these radical efficiencies by coordinating multiple engine systems (analogous to the acceleration, inducement and entrainment of the Air Multiplier) to create optimal conditions for each stage of flight and to use the excess energy the system produces to create a plasma field to reduce drag and eliminate sonic boom.

Surrounding air is drawn into the airflow, amplifying it six times in a process known as inducement and entrainment.
