The usability of the Tesla turbine [PDF]
Tesla-turbiini on vanha keksintö, jota ei ole onnistuttu vielä hyödyntämään käytännössä. Pienen kokoluokan energiantuotantoratkaisujen kasvavan kysynnän myötä Tesla-turbiini on noussut viime vuosina uudelleen tutkimuskohteeksi.

Thin Film Condensation in a Tesla Turbine [PDF]
This article deals with the development of a laminar thin film at the outlet area of a disk turbine. The increasing relative velocities at the outlet -caused by the expansion of the working fluid and the reduction of the cross- section area- are reducing the turbine efficiency, resulting in a lower power output and a higher fuel consumption.
