Abstract- Conventional turbines are mostly reaction and impulse type or both. Often technical challenge faced by conventional turbines in Himalaya is erosion by sediment. Financial feasibility of power plants is depended upon innovations to prevent erosion of mechanical equipments or alternatives which better handle these conditions. Tesla turbine is an unconventional turbine that uses fluid properties such as boundary layer and adhesion of fluid on series of smooth disks keyed to a shaft. It has been garnering interest as Pico turbine where local communities could manage such stations in low capital. It provides a simple design which can be produced locally and maintained at low cost. It can be useful in plants for pumping of water and other viscous fluids. Tesla Turbine pump has been used as a blood pump. Due to its uniqueness it has its own clich uses giving importance to identify the scope of use of Tesla Turbine in Nepal. This paper is presented in context of research project at Kathmandu University to understand working of Tesla Turbine. For this design and computational fluid dynamics (CFD) analysis of 1 kW tesla turbine was carried out. The models thus created were used for computational analysis. The proposed uses of Tesla Turbine in Nepal have been suggested. |
