Super Simple, DIY, Air Turbine

Ғылым және технология

This is a pressurized air version of the "Pressure-To-Torque Turbine".
This version has really been stripped down, to see how it will preform using only friction between the air and surface of the turbine walls.

    Nice concept. I have a few suggestions you could try. First, put the tire back on the rim. This would give the wheel a lot more momentum. This is why flywheels concentrate their weight on the perimeter. Second, I would add short interior blades to the rim so that the jet nozzle strikes them at a 90° angle rather than relying strictly on friction. You could also add a second nozzle depending on your supply. Keep up the good work!!!

    I wish you could have demonstrated the possible watt output. I'd love to hear that information. I was just talking to my friend today about using the Tesla water turbine design but with air pressure. An hour later and I see this video and showed him. They said about Tesla's design that if the discs were 3 meters and it could go 50,000 rpm then that would produce mach 13. Could u make yours with more interior discs? And what if you used the current design and tapered the air flow nozzle more? But you could mark a point on the external part of the external part of the wheel and then use a speed detection device for the mph and try to figure out the watt out put. I wish I had this info. I'd like to build a similar machine.

    You should try building a replica of 1800's John Keely's self running hydraulic motor with useful output balanced flywheel. It had central rotating 4 way valve that produced 50lbs water hammer water pressure. Unit was seen running sawing wood, after alignment timing. patent application readable and can see sample model on You tube video. Also in new York years ago , there was a self running air compressor mounted on tank. It initially was hand turned until gauge had enough pressure in tank.40lbs output air ran air cylinder attached to crank on main compressor shaft keeping it going .The balanced spoke type heavy rim flywheel had extra energy coming from machined 3 parts vortex tube that heated air chamber insulated for higher pressure output. Tubes are purchasable or read back issue science mechanics magazine article on home made adjustable units with various washer sizes for hot and cold.

Proper inlet porting can reduces friction by separating curved wall to disk edge. On the other hand moving wall is not without loss.

    I wanted to see how this would work without any interior blades. The rotating flow of air is moving against the interior of the turbine, and that friction is what is making it turn. An interesting thing; is that the rotating flow of air has to loose its rotational velocity in order to move towards the center exhaust. Or; more entering air needs increase the pressure inside of it to push it towards the exhaust, which would cause a greater increase in friction against the rotor surfaces, which would cause more torque. Then also; if the pressure increases inside the turbine, it would cut down the amount of air entering. -so I think that would cause some self-governing of the rpms. A lot to think about. Great question!

But it will cool as the air expands from the nozzle. In your turbine the space there air can go to the center is large and therefore air can go directly out without doing work.

    Hi Bob, this is the first air version I have made; so the short answer is, I don't know. I have not done much testing on it. The tank size I used in the video was 5 gallons, charged to about 115 psi. Like any motor/turbine, the load placed on it would determine the output, minus the losses. I have made other versions that used water. The one in this video: "kzread.info/dash/bejne/iZyZw9CYgZa3nMo.html" had similar torque and rpm as my drill set on low speed. It was hooked up to a garden hose, at about 40psi. My original plan was for use of such turbines, was in low head hydroelectric. Future projects.😉

An air turbine or motor needs a steady supply of pressurized air for much useful work. A pressurized tank will immediately start to drop in pressure, and will slow the turbine. It lasted long enough for the video, so I didn't have to have a noisy air compressor running. It's simple enough to build, and inexpensive. You could just build one and do the testing you want.
