Thanks...Good luck with your Tesla Turbine tests!

[@hideousbastard]

This isn't built to the specifications of a Tesla turbine. The water outlet NEEDS to be in the center in order to create the pressure effect that makes the turbine the genius that it is. Should be getting tens of thousands of RPMs

[@joseinfante5054]

Infante...Open your eyes, it has a cell with tubine tesla and another where it gathers steam and expels it.

[@hideousbastard]

José Infante no pressure should be "expelled" or lost unless it is out of the turbine itself, and though a port near the center of turbine axis

[@joseinfante5054]

+Yor Name to produce 10Kw and have 850 rpm in the generator , the tesla turbine empty is to deliver more than 30 000 rpm.

[@hideousbastard]

José Infante I think I see what you are saying that the generator can only use less rpm than what you can potentially get with a tesla turbine running at efficient speed

[@joseinfante5054]

What's the final balance: output energy - input energy?

[@dhavamanitechnologies-hydr1616]

does it has any electronic load controller(elc) such as in micro hydro turbine,to maintain the rpm under varying load conditions?

[@skyhawk551]

the Tesla turbine needs about 50k rpm to reach 90% efficiency at that size, it uses centrifugal energy to make the fluid spiral around the blades in a more efficient matter, unless they are gearing that thing down to 850 rpm, that system is running very inefficiently.

[@testurenergy]

That’s not at all how the Tesla turbine works. Even Tesla never said this. He only said it has to be spun fast when used as a pump, because the performance of ALL centrifugal pumps is dependent upon their tips speed. To increase efficiency you have to reduce the slip. To do this you increase the surface area and reduce the disc spaces.

[@testurenergy]

“Owing to a number of causes affecting the performance, it is difficult to frame a precise rule which would be generally applicable, but it may be stated that within certain limits, and other conditions being the same, the torque is directly proportionate to the square of the velocity of the fluid relatively to the runner and to the effective area of the disks and, inversely, to the distance separating them. The machine will, generally, perform its maximum work when the effective speed of the runner is one-half of that of the fluid; but to attain the highest economy, the relative speed or slip, for any given performance, should be as small as possible. This condition may be to any desired degree approximated by increasing the active area of and reducing the space between the disks.” -Nikola Tesla

What kind of airflow rate at 70 psi., are we looking at? 850 RPM at the generator rotor,,,is the turbine input shaft directly coupled to the rotor or, is there a reduction box? 850 RPM is very low...was this a PTO type generator for use on a tractor? If the flow rate was low enough...I could see some practical applications for it. Those look to be about 1&1/4" air supply hoses though.

[@Patriotgal1]

Really. It looks to be an 1800 RPM generator. It sure SOUNDS like the turbine is spinning many thousands of RPM's, but no mention of reduction type. :/

[@garystinten9339]

[@doogy312]

How much energy and cfm of air is use to ran the turbine? Tapping waste steam from nuclear or geothermal is a good app for this.

[@PYakMan1]

It states he used 70psi (No Temperature tho), which he says gives him 10kW for 850 RPM which sounds massive to me. As you can use any fuel to get the heat for your 70psi of steam, so it makes it great for off grid areas/countries/emergencies to start self power generation. Yet ppl still wonder WHY the oil/power corps don't want us to know how to do this at home....LOL. Get a bit of HHO gas from electrolysis of water and some fuels such as trees, waste paper compressed etc and offset the carbon by making own power/heat. The BIG Corps really don't want us self sufficient, but living with great technology and being able to pay our bills easily.

[@richarddimpske1980]

PYakMan1 exactly they have come up with more and more efficient ways to produce power because it increases revenue but the way that electricity is delivered is unbelievably inefficient. In fact the technology is 130+ years old . Electricity is delivered via copper wire utilizing the incredibly inefficient oil transformers in which during the whole process is astoundingly wasteful. One way to overcome this is have local power, another way is with your own power. These companies have trolls and pessimist on their payroll, any inventors fair is attended by them . When an invention is made they hire scientist and other analyst to find a flaw. That flaw is consistently pointed at and attacked until people believe that it's a hoax and once that happens the inventions stagnate .Companies sometimes create "mock" inventors fairs just to see how much people know, to the intent that anything that threatens their monopoly on energy is attacked.

[@PYakMan1]

Richard Dimpske They LIKE wasteful, as that ensures cars, planes, ships and power stations are so wasteful and they profit from that WASTE. Instead of having modern, efficient systems, they always say that would be BAD as they'd have to pass the upgrade costs on to us, yet 130 yrs of savings WOULD pay back the investments, f***ing criminals!!!

[@richardgreen7225]

It is a kind of transmission if you are trying to change pressure into motion. Or, it is a heat engine it you are trying to extract energy from a heat source. I would suggest that it could be configured as a kind of amplidyne. Folks that are interested in this kind of thing should also study MHD devices. No moving parts, sub-sonic flows, plasma energy conversion.

[@newjx]

[@billkratzer1]

gear reduction to spin the generator at only 850 rpm? 70 psi flowing through what size supply line? those appeared large. if you double the size of line you quadruple the volume, so how do you provide enough volume? BTU's compared to work produced? How long can you maintain the output? serious questions, torque questions also come to mind. can you help me understand?

[@Patriotgal1]

Really- I want to see some DETAILS!

[@enigmatri]

steam power people. cant you see the water droplets?

[@billkratzer1]

Patriotgal1 now that RPM is taken out of the equation, only raw power to spin the generator head at any RPM, rectified to storage as DC and output with an inverter as pure sinewave or modified is truely simplifying power generation. the previous need to spin at certain RPM to furnish Hertz @ 60 limited so much . variable speed generators to output DC is in my opinion a much better option for useable power. LED lighting with low voltage DC at a freq to prolong life and brightness is rarely talked about. but why waste watts when so much less is needed.

[@Patriotgal1]

[@pauliacono6580]

People must please remember, we are not talking about another "Average Guy" designing this turbine. It was Tesla, a man who arrived in USA after being robbed dockside had 4 cents and clothes on back, then worked for Edison/Westinghouse two of the biggest electric corps of the world at that time, and he made the best Induction motors of the day still used today for world power gen/supply & better lights than Edison brighter, lasted much longer, and cheaper. He had his own labs, glassblowing/making works to design/build 1st radio transmitters, that Marconi said he Did, until courts proved Tesla did! Yet THEY Suppressed him, as his desire was to GIVE Freely his electric that he could collect from nature, the waterfall of Niagara 1st, then he saw a better way from the spinning of earth in a capacitative atmosphere, causing huge frictional forces thus electricity due to internal spinning magnetic/ferro planet core....and you still Doubt HIM as the bankers/industrialists Suppressed him, burned down his lab and lifes work etc... You ppl don't deserve genius' such as Schauberger, Rife, Tesla, Searl, Moray and at least 20 other Suppressed inventors and 100s of inventions that I can note.

[@UberCookieMonster]

When tesla worked for edison, it was direct current generators that tesla was working on and made improvements to, not the light bulb. Tesla had had his own carbon arc light company in the past, but that was an outdated technology by the time he was employed by edison. The credit for the radio was given to marconi because marconi was the first to transmit something across the atlantic ocean, which is also how tesla lost jp morgans funding, it had been contingent on tesla transmitting a signal or electricity across the atlantic.

[@PYakMan1]

Amber Coco Yes, & Tesla DID make Edisons design better, and they became enemies because Edison said he was joking that he'd pay him $50k for doing it. He then KNEW Edison was not honorable. Marconi USED 17 of Tesla' patents to achieve his radio transmission, OR am I getting this wrong, I Know Morgans friends got the court case overturned AFTER Tesla got it overturned against Marconi, they ARE Cheats. Tesla had already done XRay/Radio on the way to other things, just because Marconi didn't check/care does not mean he invented it....lol. He (Tesla) also DID make the Only/Best AC Polyphase motors/generators, so yeah I do think he was clever. You may try to undermine his achievements, but you are joking if you think I'll believe a guy on YT, over a genius inventor who DID patent many superb, revolutionary inventions. Sorry you aren't impressed by that, but it just shows you believe media more than the truth. Tesla was amazing for the time.

[@Psychopathis]

PYakMan1 Tesla was a true genious like Archimedes not frauds like Einstein and Marconi. And yes the Ancient Greeks have the majority of invensions in Math Astronomy Physics Med and staff but they werent capable to test them due to the lack of tech. Look for the Antikithira Mechanism for crying out loud. A perfect computer. Galileus, Newton and all these people were based on Greek studies. if you want you can tell me what they invented and i ll show you which Greek said it first!

[@pauliacono6580]

Psychopathis Yes, the Antikythera is amazing for the period. I think Tesla was a real genius, not constrained by others saying it's Impossible IF he could devise a way to succeed. He had the advantage of working out most mechanical/electrical problems in mind before needing to experiment in material world. He said this stopped him having to commit to tooling, designs that were expensive prototypes, saving much time/money.

OK, how to buy such a power generating device? The solar version for 10 kW is around $30,000 so how much for this device?

[@ufoengines]

Very Cool!

[@3DPDK]

What a lot of you commenters don't understand is this is a 9 pole, 3 phase, AC generator. It MUST maintain about 800 RPM to output 60 hz AC; 668 for 50 hz. The output voltage is regulated electronically but the frequency is not. If this is built correctly, if it over-speeds there MUST be a governor that will dump steam out of the engine. When the generator goes under load the governor will close the bypass steam to add greater torque to the turbine. No matter what the load, the generator can only vary a few RPM. Most diesel powered generators have an over-speed safety trip set for 62.4 hz or about 830 to 840 RPM that will kill the drive motor.

[@gravelydon7072]

3DPDK, ours were set a lot closer. If they hit 62Hz (actually 61.9Hz )they shed the load. Same with our main engines. 1800 RPM and gone at between 1850 and 1900 RPM. All done with electronic pickups on the flywheels and electronic governors on the fuel racks in 1979. We seldom paralleled them but could if we needed. There they had to run within .1 Hz of each other or you faced overloads. One thing you hate to hear is a Detroit Diesel at 1800 RPM drop the damper on the air intake.

[@PYakMan1]

I don't see that personally either. BUT knowing the Tesla turbine efficiencies, the size that I saw produce 1Kw, and this much larger, multiple turbine platter design should easily put out 10Kw. The Tesla turbine is what Tesla himself called his greatest invention for mankind. As he saw the increases it could provide to man as work for us to use a its master ;-) From what I've read/researched it seems to work on a certain property of vortex fluid dynamics that people such as Schauberger & Tesla did understand fully.

[@AdiGeorgescu22]

PYakMan1 It's not easy at all to say, since the efficiency is tricky and is not easy to build the thing the same way Tesla did. I'm only bothered because many times I see numbers thrown there without any evidence whatsoever. The turbine works because a fluid in motion adheres (a thin layer of it) to a surface in its vicinity. The fluid wants to escape through the middle, but to do that it has to go in a spiral since it is injected tangentially. When the rpm increases, the efficiency also increases because the spiral becomes more and more dense (many more "turns") because of the centrifugal effect. Be careful when choosing the spacing between the pates. For air or saturated steam you only need a few tens of micrometers, or possibly 100. See Boundary Layer Effect and Coanda Effect. Thanks for the reply.

[@PYakMan1]

Adrian Georgescu Thx for your brilliant, well informed reply Adrian...see how great KZbin used to be, and can be when ppl who are intelligent can discuss a subject countries apart, yet viewing the same data. I totally understand your stance on this, yet I do believe Tesla and wait in hope of our finest engineers finding it and making it freely available for ALL! As anyone who does try to be evil too and make money from it will be suppressed as every other great inventor have done to them.

[@kimricsmythe6500]

Adrian Georgescu Even if this worked as well as you hoped, the uneven heating causes your disks to warp (outside edge is hotter than inside edge of disc) at the temps and pressures need to produce efficient power. Under about 70 hp piston engines are more efficient than any turbine, over that horsepower range the reciprocating mass and friction of a piston engine causes more loss that the inherent "slip" in a turbine. The Tesla turbine does work, but its just not that efficient, no matter how big.

[@PYakMan1]

I'm sorry to sound negative Kimric, but I actually trust the genius (proven) Tesla and him stating this was one of his finest inventions, than you. Please don't take this as a slight against you, it's just that Tesla was a "Dude" lol. Pppl must understand we are trying to emulate a genius WITH his own test facilities, glass blowing works, huge high frequency alternators etc, so it isn't as if Tesla was a dreamer in his garage, he WAS being held back by powerful oil cartels/bankers/media yet still rose to the highest highs....

+DragonsREpic Hello, a solar panel, a battery 12V x 100 Amp, one celule of hydrogen and a boiler and you work with free steam, go to (youtube hydrogen steam)

[@johnthoits2367]

+José Infante If you are using electricity to make steam it's a waste of energy to involve hydrogen. Just use a heating element. Making hydrogen can be fun though :-)

[@grahambird1570]

You can use use the exhaust from the Turbine to run another smaller Tesla Turbine to run another application and so on !!!! Otherwise - No Comment !!!!!

[@markhodgson3045]

haha how much energy did it take to pump the water

[@joseinfante5054]

+Mark Hodgson a lot of fucken ignorants ass holls around.

[@psycronizer]

+José Infante ah, speaking of ignorant, what were you doing when the teacher was trying to teach you how to spell?..let me guess..IGNORING him or her...so WHO's the ignorant one? hmmm? hmmm?

[@johnpeters1441]

what use is this .for what ????

[@grahambird1570]

Ant Colony street lights in an Ant Hill !!!!

Yo no entiendo como es posible que en España los videos de KZbin estén escritos en otro idioma que no todos los Españoles los conocemos como yo no tengo ningún conocimiento de ningún idioma que no sea el Español y como yo hay tantos que no se pueden contar con los que tenemos una cierta edad que para entonces no se daban clases de idiomas

[@brandonjamesbare]

8500 RPM?

[@joelvoss1226]

850.00 rpm generator. Turbine spinning much faster, likely 10X. Look at the cylindrical housing between the turbine and the generator - almost for sure is housing reduction gearing. The poster simply did not supply many details.

[@adonismallare9816]

It will absolutely run by steam no doubt to that,the thing is,how

[@nekochen4580]

steam？

[@scottgibson7534]

No load on it.

[@craigwilliams991]

Has any one Eva tried using compressed air with a fuel mix of 10 % vapour petroleum? An having ignition sparks at 3 points timed right , the combustion an expanding gas would 10 x the rpm ,,,, well just may b 🤔😉 I'll let u know nice vid but yes design specs are off ,,.

[@CharlieSolis]

I’m working on it. Just got my compressed air tests done. I’ll be replicating teslas improved combustion turbine patent GB 186,083 with this design made out of stainless steels I’m the next months or so This is an acceleration dyno test. 3.2hp and 5.02ft-lbs torque peak @4500 rpm, and multiple sustained 2.5hp. And before you say where’s the load in this one, “acceleration” is the load. Change in rotational kinetic energy divided by the time interval between the points is average power out across the time interval. kzbin.info/www/bejne/aJK2k4WKaNmfi68 These are my first preliminary electrical power tests. About 500watts before my last fixes that yielded the results in the video above. I still haven’t even gotten to steam tests yet too! kzbin.info/www/bejne/hnmliGN4qNyrb5o

[@samenamenamesame2834]

Takes 20 KW to make 10 KW????

[@scottgibson7534]

10Kva no amps, put 100 amp load on the genny, and it would not matter if you put 700 psi in, the turbine would stall period.

[@CharlieSolis]

False. Just needs to be designed right. I’m getting plenty of low rpm torque and I haven’t even gotten to steam tests yet. kzbin.info/www/bejne/aJK2k4WKaNmfi68

[@aggabus]

Rankine

[@aggabus]

1000:1 vwz:sbz...exhaust wrong

[@photofan6254]

Personally....I wouldn't get that damn close !

[@livemobizenwau]

it can go max 150000 rpm

[@tthr3140]

better use some ear protection

[@hawkintelligence]

of course it's blury....
