One of Nikola Tesla's greatest inventions is the blade-less turbine, referred to as 'Tesla turbine'. In the case that the driving fluid is air, I am interested on how air constituents (principally Nitrogen and Oxygen) are radially segregated between the rotating discs. Any suggestions?
There are some very god youtube videos which explains it all. Unless, of course you are looking specifically into the research papers. But anyhow it is a good start.
Thank you Abhijeet Singh . Yes, I am looking for specific research papers (simulation work as a start) which addresses the question of air constituents segregation between the discs.
Well, this seems to be a good start: Article Numerical assessment of a two-phase Tesla turbine: Parametric analysis
Of course, this addresses a two-phase turbine but I am looking into it.
