Solving the Tesla Turbine Bearing Temperature Problem
Hello... I went to a very good technical high school and now I am in the last year of mechanical engineering in the university. Here in argentina the m.e. is more based on materials than thermodinamics, so i have a large gap between my knowledge and the one that i want to have. Best...- Argentina

Solving the Tesla Turbine Bearing Temperature Problem
I need the EFD.LAB, that's the program we are looking for... If someone has it, please contact me. I can't find it.- Argentina

Solving the Tesla Turbine Bearing Temperature Problem
I think the first step is building the turbine with the best efficiency to transform the motion of the fluid to motion on the axle. With the less turbulence and loss of boundary layer between the disc. I don't know if the floworks works with diferent surfaces on the materials, i hope so because...- Argentina

Solving the Tesla Turbine Bearing Temperature Problem
Im trying to get FLOWORKS ( a tool for solidworks ) and see if i can get some data if i build a small 2 o 3 disc tesla´s turbine. First i have to know how the program works and if is usefull for this kind of things. I will tell you if a know something else. See ya- Argentina

Solving the Tesla Turbine Bearing Temperature Problem
I think that the end of this discucion is to build a series of different sizes of turbines and variables. Compress air and get how much energy it takes to do it, then expand it on the diferent turbines, at diferents presures and speed to see how much energy you recover. If nobody wants to...- Argentina
