I changed the picture so you can see better inside. the key invention different from tesla turbine is the hollow axle which make it more efficient and blades driving doesn't rely on high speed to reach that efficiency.
yes I know that Tesla Turbine using air viscosity to drive the blade. people think that is why it got high efficiency. I think that is a Misconceptions. I think the high efficiency come from the air come from out edge with high velocity and out to the center with low velocity. so most momentum has been exchanged to the blade. that is the reason it got high efficiency. that is why my design got hollow axle which let air exhaust to the center. It's better than original tesla turbine.
need invest. no money waste. I'm focusing on generating electricity from burning nature gas. people using nature gas heat up homes in winter. if I can generate electricity then heat up homes by residual heat. that is something.
My intuition says that your design will never be as efficient as a real Tesla Turbine. See, the Tesla Turbine is so efficient because the gas constantly spirals in and "rubs" tangentially against the blades. The gas loses momentum, spiraling in and exiting to the whole in the middle. Therefore, the momentum transfer coefficient is always maximal.
There is no way you can achieve this efficiency by these paddle wheels. The gas molecules collide with the paddle wheels and bounce back which is not a good way to transfer momentum. There is a reason why paddle wheels (aka water wheels) were replaced by more efficient designs.
If you really want to get funded, you have to prove your design against existing designs. And that is by doing a controlled experiment and compare it against the Tesla Turbine.
If you can't afford building another device, then simulate both designs with CFD and compare them in the simulation.
"The gas molecules collide with the paddle wheels and bounce back which is not a good way to transfer momentum" then you have to tell the designer of turbines that are using to generating electricity now.
I only tell you how it is and that it will be extremely difficult for you to get approval. Bold claims require bold proof.
In gas turbines, no paddle wheels are used. Instead, the blades are angled in such a way that momentum transfer is maximized without redirecting the gas molecules completely. That’s the big difference to your design.
Again, prove that your design works and I will believe you. If there is no proof, this is just another thing that someone wants to improve the world with, without actually working.
I don’t have to prove anything. You had the idea, you have to convince people of your design. And this includes arguing with strangers on the internet (me). I don’t want anything bad. I just want you to understand how that usually works.
you are right. I'm here for investor who understand. not wasting time auguring. efficiency is just one part of the point. easy built low cost small unit. mobility low noise...... etc. you didn't get it
"The gas molecules collide with the paddle wheels and bounce back which is not a good way to transfer momentum" you are right if it is in a open areas. the air molecules just have one hit then gone. but it is in a close chamber, it will come back and hit many times. think about the piston engine.
How does this work? Is it better than a normal turbine?
yes, it is like Tesla turbine which have high efficiency but is is easy to manufacture. low cost.
I changed the picture so you can see better inside. the key invention different from tesla turbine is the hollow axle which make it more efficient and blades driving doesn't rely on high speed to reach that efficiency.
However, I think the paddle wheel design makes it quite inefficient. The tesla turbine design doesn’t have paddles for a reason.

Ok, then prove it. Build a Tesla Turbine in the exact same size and compare it with your design.

"CFD" how about you do it for me, no just say it.

"the blades are angled" conmen sense to me. there is sth tell me no need curve blade. Its not easy to explain here.

tell me why we haven't seen tesla turbine being used today?
