    DESIGN OF TESLA TURBINE Abstract:- The Tesla turbine is a bladeless centripetal flow turbine patented by Nikola Tesla in 1913. It is referred to as a bladeless turbine because it uses the boundary layer effect and not a fluid impinging upon the blades as in a conventional turbine. The Tesla turbine is also known as the boundary layer turbine‚ cohesion-type turbine‚ and Prandtl layer turbine (after Ludwig Prandtl). Bioengineering researchers have referred

    advantage. Airflow control is also better with this arrangement. Task P8 Impulse turbine- these turbines change the direction of flow of a high velocity fluid jet the resulting impulse spins the turbine and leaves the fluid flow with diminished kinetic energy. Reaction turbines- these turbines develop torque by reacting to the fluid pressure or weight. The pressure of the fluid changes as it passes through the turbine rotor blades. Task P8 B) Creep is permanent growth over time of component
