I am a new member so it is just customary to introduce myself. I'm 16 and full focused on engineering, especially mechanical engineering. I have been learn...
Hello Mathew, and welcome! The posts here are pretty infrequent, but several people on this list are very willing to help or answer questions you may have. ...
I am planning on going to school at Portland State University and getting a degree in mechanical engineering, but I was curious as to what I could do to help...
There's no simple answer there. The technology has been suppressed, and ignored for a long time. If you could develop a compact practical way to fuel the...
I would also add that the biggest problem with the Tesla turbine (or any other combustion turbine, for that matter) is lack of adequate materials of ...
Well, remember that there are a number of systems that need heat engines and pumps that do not operate at the thin edge of molten metal. A solar furnace, ...
Fred, You are right, of course. I suppose I should have elaborated more. I had in mind a combustion turbine of the type used in electrical generation. My main...

Fred, I see what you are talking about, but that seems way too complex and large for the application I had in mind. The large diameter rotor you mentioned ...

Jim, Interesting... So are you saying, Convert a vehicle to use an electrical motor to each wheel (which doubles as a electrical generation device when...
James, You have grasped it completely. Yes, I have some preliminary concepts together. I am currently working at a university engineering department, and a...
Jim, How exciting... I had been throwing around the idea of building a vegetable oil fueled tesla engine for a motorcycle. In thinking about it, I started to ...
... From: Welsh James E Contr 21SOPS/MCOM [mailto:james.welsh@...] I just don't know if the added weight of the second generator would be worth...

Jim Hello all, My names Andy Marinich. I'm a toolmaker from Peoria IL. I've been interested in the idea of using a tesla turbine as a supercharger for my 88...
Andy, Have you checked out the files posted to the group in the files section? There's some info there on different calculations and designs that will help you...
I've been reading the current posts and it sound like most of the turbines your talking about still require fossil fuels to run. Is it not possible to...
Mathew, The University of Louisiana at Lafayette. BTW, air is just a mixture of gases, very little of which have any fuel value at all. Thus a system using...

Everyone should check out this site http://www.cheniere.org/toc.html Is it real or BS? Andy Jim Dooley <LSUman@...> wrote: Mathew, The University of...
Hi Everybody, CFD Simulation of a Tesla turbine: Rey Ladino, A.: Numerical Simulation of the Flow Field in a Friction- Type Turbine (Tesla Turbine). (Juni...
Very nicely done. Thank you. ... _________________________________________________________________ Don’t just search. Find. Check out the new MSN Search! ...
Mathew, As Jim said, we have not created a way to use Air as a fuel. However, you may have seen my recent post regarding hydrogen gas from water. There is...
