Abstract: Micro gas turbines (mGT) have not yet succeeded in conquering the small-scale combined heat and power (CHP) market. One reason is that their electrical efficiency is not high enough to maintain a cost-effective operation. ...

Abstract: The Tesla compressor is an innovative technology that offers a unique approach to fluid compression. Unlike traditional compressors that use rotating blades, bladeless compressors utilize closely spaced disks to create ...

Abstract: This study aims to investigate the reversible operation of a bladeless air expander prototype operated reversibly in compressor mode to understand the performance by numerical method and compare its results experimentally. ...

Abstract: The cost-effectiveness of turbomachinery is a key aspect within the small-size compressor market. For this reason, Tesla turbomachinery, invented by Nikola Tesla in 1913, could be a good solution, particularly for low ...
