Proof of concept? What concept, that if you aim a stream of compressed air at any object stuck on an axle it will turn?

The title is "Make a Tesla Turbine. Not "Spin Something with Air"

You could demo the only "proof of concept" in this video by spinning an English muffin on a pencil.

its over 9000!!!!! thats fast

[DigGil1]

@teslstirlputt Do you think a simple cylinder can rotate so fast with air going around it?

[josephdupont]

So what did you use as a spacer?

[teslstirlputt]

@77camosoul Precision isn't the problem here. The Tesla concept is for gas spinning between two disks in a spiral towards the center, then exiting axially through center ports at the spindle and case.

The flow in the video above is along the disk periphery and past it radially. Basically demonstrating a crude frictional radial turbine. Like an undershot waterwheel.

A case and axial ports are what make a Tesla Turbine act very differently than the above example, and what was unique about it.

@teslstirlputt So you admit your description of this is false? Not everything needs to be precision engineered. Of course it won't work as well, but that doesn't make it any less of an example.

[teslstirlputt]

@77camosoul Perhaps I am. But I machined a real disk turbine 8 years ago from home poured castings, including machining the disks, milling proper disk ports, etc. You can aim a stream of air at the periphery anything on an axle and make it move. And yes, a heck of a lot faster than 8000 RPM with good bearings, small diameter, and reasonably low mass. That's not a Tesla disk turbine if the air exits the periphery of the disk instead of axially at the spindle. Back to the parade.....

[77camosoul]

@teslstirlputt you are stupid on parade...

[brotherboy77]

talking, talking, talking............ you actually managed to make a video about making tesla turbine, without actually make it *lol*

[schbrachbolidsei]

And so what? Using energy to produce energy got to be a loss of efficiency!

[d3dreaper]

Holy self-destructing discs batman!!

@floyd5666 just attach it to a permanent magnet motor/generator and it will generate electricity. Its the same thing as putting magnets on the disks with coils around them. If you though you could make a perpetuum mobile machine, you're wrong. You can't generate more energy then you put into it. Btw if its air powered you would need to run a compressor, and compressors are quite inefficient machines, except for rotary screw compressors. Btw im a mechanical engineering student, fluid engineering.
