The relationship between the rotating discs; creating centrifugal force which pushes the air to the outsides of the discs where it is compressed making the boundary effect more efficient has never been explained to me before. A brilliant educational video, for me a very easy subscribe and hit that bell for further updates. Thank you for posting.

Interesting video and discussion. I read a book on Tesla years ago and it said quite a bit about his turbine. If I recall, the blade spacing was determined by the viscosity of the fluid. A thin fluid like air needs different spacing than a thick fluid, like oil. Also, the biggest limitation during Tesla's lifetime was the strength of the blade material which severely limited the size and power. Possibly the greatest genius that ever lived.

The tesla coil powered everything that wasnt plugged in, raised hell with computer stuff. In the time when his lab was shut down people were not ready for the concept of free energy. Yet it isnt truly free. You still have to create power to run a tesla coil. You get a better free from solar or wind power. Yet you still have to create solar panels or live in a windy area with a created wind turbine.

Speaking as a rotordynamics engineer, I think what you are actually seeing at ~50,000 RPM is your turbine rotor going through it's 2nd lateral critical speed. One usually expects lateral vibration (and hence noise) to decrease dramatically after passing through a critical speed. Additionally, you can hear a similar change in noise and vibration behavior at ~25,000, where it seems to get rather choppy and then steadies back out. This would be the 1st critical speed of the rotor. Typically, one expects the 2nd critical speed to be at approx. twice the speed of the 1st, which what we have here.

Does the speed in which these critical speed thresholds happen, sustain a diminishing returns kind of pattern?

Or does it pattern in the opposite direction? 25,000 is 1 50,000 is 2 and 3 is 200,000?

My 1st impression about this turbine (yes, this is the first time I've heard about this invention) is that while it has really high efficiency at high RPM, it's not ideal to start this turbine with a high shaft load because air viscosity is too low to grab on the disks and make them turn, thus wasting a lot of fuel to get this turbine to start. I think that's the reason why we haven't seen them everywhere. Though the torque converter in car automatic transmission may have taken the idea from this invention
@teenagemutantninjaraver2224

The Tesla Turbine gets plenty of torque. Charlie Solis has proven it with the Tesla turbines they make, even with just room temp compressed air. Real 3.75hp and 6.22ft-lbs of torque at only 4150 from a dyno test and real sustained 1.2kW electrical load outputs on all the way down to 70psi even. At low rpm AND it’s geared UP to the generators too. Not down like everyone insists you have to with the Tesla turbine. Tesla never says you have to spin them fast for them to be efficient. That’s a misnomer about the Tesla turbine. He only says that it working as a pump sees increased performance as rpm is increased, just like ALL centrifugal pumps. But for the turbine Tesla says you must reduce the slip to increase the efficiency. This is done by increasing the surface area, and decreasing the discs spacing to get laminar flow regimes between the discs even with gasses. “Because irrelevant of the viscosity of the fluid, ALL FLUIDS, liquids and gases, can be forced to flow in highly efficient low Reynolds number laminar flow regimes given the right initial conditions and “flow cavity” parameters, such that turbulent boundary layer slip is eliminated, stream separation and counterflow is eliminated, rapid pressure changes from turbulence resulting in noise losses that can lead to early fatigue on discs and parts is eliminated, etc.”

Most air powered dental drills turn at 400k on a simple fan style turbine. Speed isn't the big factor. Torque is what's needed to perform work. An air dental drill's speed drops by around 40% as soon as it touches a hard surface. An electric hand piece only travels at 200k but has no noticeable drop in speed when it contacts a surface.

And some electric or combustion engine must power air pump firstly. So why waste power o weird system it's much better to just connect electric engine directly to fan.

+Czorńy Lisek G'day, Well, y'see, traditionally, the way Engineers deal with Contraptions which produce Stitpotsfull of RPMs with buggar-all Torque, like say for example Gas-Turboshaft Engines..., they generally fit a whopping set of Reduction-Gears, so their Turbine is free to spin at 60,000, 70,000 or 90,000 RPM, while the Airscrew revolves at 2,000 Turns per Minute, or so, and the Heligoflopter Rotor achieves 300 - 500 RPM... The challenge, apparently, is to cobble-up a Wind-Turbine to drive an Air Compressor, maybe using a length of 2-Metre Diameter Gas-Pipe as a Tower/Air Reservoir..., feeding a Tesla-Turbine running an Alternator, as a way of storing Wind-Power to generate Ekectrickities ON DEMAND, as "Dispatchable Power"... This has great possibilities, if nyet pissabolities, at the very least. Such is Life, Have a good one, ;-p Ciao !

Consider this: Tesla figures that low voltage applications require lots of amps. Higher voltages require less amps to do the same amount of work. So he makes a graph, draws a line way off the page, and says that if the voltage is higher the wires are thinner, and if the voltage is high enough, maybe we dont need wires. but how do we do that...? then he says: if i make AC current, i dont have to push so much electricity through a device, i can push and pull it, and if i push and pull it fast enough (increase the frequency) then a high enough frequency will make for better power transmission and smaller capacitors can be used. Maybe if i make a graph and go far enough, with a high enough freq, then i wont even need a capacitor, but how will i do that?.... Then he makes a turbine that turns mechanical wind into super high spinning turbine... and being the Genius he is, he would take a light wind, convert mechanically to super high speed freq, to super high voltage, and distributed that energy to where ever on the planet he wanted it to be. a super efficient means of transmitting any wind power anywhere. I think this is what he was trying to do.

Well, that's part of how it would work. In essence, he was proposing to use the atmosphere as the dielectric and the earth as the conductor in a huge coaxial cable! Hit the right frequency, and the Earth/atmosphere system will resonate like a tuned circuit. Or a singing wine-glass. The energy exchange would be pretty good, but for it to work there could be no radio broadcasts. Any strong localized broadcast would disrupt the sky-field, and the transmission effect would become unsteady or even cease. You could have had free power broadcast all over your World, or you could have had only Radio. Guess being entertained is worth more than free power.

Charlie Solis has proven real power and torque outputs even at low rpm. 2.75kW and 6.22ft-lbs of torque at only 4150rpm on only 150psi room temp compressed air and 1200watt electrical load output tests on all the way down to only 65psi... all on a plastic and aluminum Tesla Turbine prototype…. AND it’s geared UP to the generators too. Not down like everyone insists you have to with the Tesla turbine! For the turbine Tesla says you must reduce the slip to increase output and thus the efficiency. This is done by increasing the surface area, and decreasing the discs spacing to get laminar flow regimes between the discs even with gasses. “Because irrelevant of the viscosity of the fluid, ALL FLUIDS, liquids and gases, can be forced to flow in highly efficient low Reynolds number laminar flow regimes given the right initial conditions and “flow cavity” parameters, such that turbulent boundary layer slip is eliminated, stream separation and counterflow is eliminated, rapid pressure changes from turbulence resulting in noise losses that can lead to early fatigue on discs and parts is eliminated, etc.”

I watched the valve video too, and as someone who works in the petrochemical field, I can definitely see refinery applications for both of these. Check valve failure can be disastrous in the industry, and the most common failure occurs with the moving parts. Another big money pit is inefficient turbines, most of which top out at speeds much lower, and run on recovered or generated steam, which costs money if you can't recover condensate, or vaccuum systems fail. Tesla was one of the greatest minds the world has ever known.

Nice. But I wonder where this concept can be of value. For example, if efficiency is 97% of the turbine output but the RPM needs to be in the 70K+ range, then powering a car through air pressure would be an efficiency challenge due to the necessary transmission of converting RPMs down to a usable number. Also such turbine would have to be rather large to output meaningful power. And how does such concept scale in terms of power and efficiency vs RPM?

It would only be good as a hybrid motor, it's not good for directly running things.. the goal was to reduce friction so power generation is more efficient, it wasn't to make anything move directly.. you can modify it and add fins, but that drops it's efficiency

@@greenthizzle4 where do you get the idea it isn’t for driving Anything directly? Tesla applied for a patent on a car powered by a Tesla turbine. It was turned down with needed revisions and he never resubmitted it. It’s in the “Unresolved Patents of Nikola Tesla” book from the museum. Also he has 5 improvements patents for the turbine that he patented in 1921, 10 years after the original and a decade of R&D. Patents GB 186,082 (improved discs stack, It DOES NOT include “fins” or blades to get added torque, what everyone erroneously claims are needed), GB 186,083 (improved combustion + steam turbine with recoup boiler on the exhaust), GB 186,084 (combustion steam super heater and multi fluid concentric mixing nozzle for the turbine where the steam jet envelopes the combustion exhaust always drawing a slight vacuum on the pipe to counter centrifugal head in the turbine), GB 174,544 (hybrid Tesla and Parsons reaction turbine for recouping the “reheat factor” and increasing overall thermodynamic efficiency. This one is meant for ships and boats), US 1,655,114 (VTOL Aerial Apparatus powered by Tesla turbines that counter rotate from the main lifting propeller to cancel out any gyroscopic effects of the prop that even helicopters still have to counteract). I think there’s one more I’m forgetting too but anyway… Tesla 100% meant for them to directly drive loads. Charlie Solis makes real actual working, power and torque outputting even at low rpm, TesTurs that are more than capable of directly driving a load. Dyno’d at +4.25kW between only 6000-8000rpm and peak torque of 6.22ft-lbs of torque at only 4150 rpm all with a plastic and aluminum TesTur run on room temp compressed air and never going over 40psi at the nozzle either 🤭 Even did real electrical load and efficiency tests all the way up to 2.65kW at 9500 rpm and never exceeding 20psi at the nozzle.

I suspect at 'peak efficiency' the air pressure coming out is nowhere near sufficient. It sounds like there's an exact pressure to achieve maximum surface drag. I'm confused why these aren't used. Why wouldn't you just have a compressor fill a tank and then stick a generator on it.. and have the generator power the compressor to keep the loop. Obvious there's energy loss and you'd eventually need to plug in the compressor to keep the tank pressurized.. so you swap the tank. Compressed nitrogen costs pennies. Why aren't there portable generators using this?
