Ceramic Tesla Turbine

The fluid spirals inwards and is exhausted th.

Ceramic tesla turbine. The us patent 1061206 was granted on the 6th may 1913 although historical documents suggest that that tesla first showed a 200 horsepower about 150kw 16 000. I was blowing the air into the turbine and couldn t see what was being filmed. This test was done without preloading the bearings. Once again this turbine eagerly is awaited.

Here s a project that uses some of those dead hard drives you ve got lying around. The bearings were damaged as a. The tesla turbine efficiency has increase it now has ceramic bearings and it is now close loop which makes it ideal for organic rankine cycle systems. In the tesla turbine air steam oil or any other fluid is injected at the edge of a series of smooth parallel disks.

Build a 15 000 rpm tesla turbine using hard drive platters. The tesla turbine is a bladeless centripetal flow turbine patented by nikola tesla in 1913. Apologies for the camera work. Further improvements have been made after plenty of r d from the last turbine.
