We are pleased to help engineering students with design projects when time allows.

E-mail the design requirements for the shell & tube condenser to Wayne Braun at braunengineering@gmail.com
 
I think everyone here would be happy to help but we don't do the project for you. Your going to have to let us know where you get stuck and where you need some advice.

Thread 'Questions about the Tesla turbine'

Hi all, i have some questions about the tesla turbine: is a tesla turbine more efficient than a steam engine or a stirling engine ? about the discs of the tesla turbine warping because of the high speed rotations; does running the engine on a lower speed solve that or will the discs warp anyway after time ? what is the difference in efficiency between the tesla turbine running at high speed and running it at a lower speed ( as fast as possible but low enough to not warp de discs) and: i...
