Karsten's Ring Turbine

more engines at: www.indianarog.com Turbine design evolved from Karsten's Heron's ring. Nice sound like a jet spooling up as it gets going. My favorite of his pieces.

It's a beautiful little thing .. it's so far removed from the standard steamengine, it's made steam cool again. :)

how does it work

You put about 12 cc's of distilled water in the ball (top unscrews)...then about 10 cc's of denatured alcohol in the bowl under the ball...and light the alcohol. In a minute or so the water reaches boiling point and sends steam down thin tube towards the turbine blade. Steam simply shoots out a jet across the fins on the turbine blade making it turn.

No...it was built by a German engineer by the name of Karsten Gintschel.
