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

PEST considers four macro environmental factors; political‚ economic‚ social and technological (Abdullah & Shamsher‚ 2011; Gupta‚ 2013; Ward‚ 2005; Koumparoulis‚ 2013; Nunes & Peng‚ 2007). The framework investigates the external environmental factor of a business to examine a business’s position in an industry or environment and feasibility of the business venture in that environment (Nunes & Peng‚ 2007). PEST assumes that the success of companies is dependent

HRM Human resource management is a strategic and coherent approach to the management of an organization’s most valued assets – the people working there‚ who individually and collectively contribute to the achievement of its objectives. Boxall et al(2007) describe HRM as ‘the management of work and people towards desired ends’. John Storey (1989) believes that HRM can be regarded as a ‘set of interrelated policies with an ideological and philosophical underpinning’. He suggests four aspects that

Windmill Electricity | | Mankind been harnessing the wind’s energy for many years. From Holland to traditional farms around the world‚ windmills were used in the past for pumping water through primative irrigation systems or used to grind grain. Then‚ the wind turned large "sails" which were connected by a long vertical shaft that was attached to a grindnig machine or to a wheel that turned and drew water from a well. Today’s turbines - can utilize the energy of the wind to turn large metal

HYDRAULIC TURBINES Meaning of the term ‘Hydraulic’ • The working fluid is a liquid or a gas?? ANSWER – WORKING FLUID IS A LIQUID. TURBINE – WORKING PRINCIPLE • In turbines the pressure energy is converted into mechanical energy(which is further converted into electrical energy). WORKING PRINCIPLE OF PUMPS it is just the reverse of the above‚ that is‚ the mechanical energy is converted into pressure energy. OUR FOCUS OF STUDY • Working of various types of hydraulic turbines. • Working

Turbines: A Wind-Wind Solution The majority of energy comes from nonrenewable fossil fuels such as coal‚ natural gas‚ and oil. Americans depend on this energy in almost every way imaginable; from cooking to cleaning‚ from working to traveling‚ to heating and cooling. Wind is a byproduct of solar energy; the uneven heating of the air over land and water creates wind as warm air rises and cool air rushes in to take its place (Bezdek‚ 29 Oct. 2013). Although some people tend to dislike the idea
