Powerful Lego BLADELESS Turbine Generator!

You can pick up your own Bambu Lab P2S here: https://tidd.ly/47BXRCr If you’d like to print these parts, I’ve uploaded them to MakerWorld here: https://makerworld.com/en/models/2509828 https://makerworld.com/en/models/2509880 https://makerworld.com/en/models/2509924 Tesla Turbines are a type of bladeless turbine invented by Nikola Tesla that rely on a large number of stacked discs instead of traditional blades. Instead of pushing against blades, the fast-moving fluid (air in our case) drags along the surface of the discs through ‘boundary layer friction’, transferring its energy to the rotor. This makes it potentially very efficient, compared to regular bladed turbines - at least in theory. So today, we’re going to build bigger and bigger Tesla Turbines using Lego, eventually using 3D printing to create our rotor discs. As we scale up our turbines, and the power increases, we’ll build a generator to convert the power into electricity. Let’s see what we can power!
