- W649792295 abstract "This article presents, for the first time, the fluid dynamics of the rotating flow of a nanofluid through the narrow spacings within co-rotating discs of a Tesla turbine. The inter-disc-spacing of multiple concentric discs of a Tesla disc turbine is usually of the order of 100 μm. The study is conducted with the help of both mathematical analysis and computational fluid dynamic simulations. Numerical values are reported for a specific nanofluid which is a dilute solution of ferro-particles in water (maximum volume fraction considered is 0.05). The velocity field, pressure field and fluid pathlines are calculated in the three-dimensional, axi-symmetric flow domain for prescribed boundary values for the velocity components at inlet. Detailed comparisons between the analytical and computational solutions are provided. It is explained how the fluid dynamics of rotating flow within a Tesla disc turbine is influenced by the change in volume fraction of nanoparticles. The present study reveals that, with an increase in the volume fraction of nanoparticles, the pressure-drop in the radial direction increases; the tangential velocity at any point inside the computational domain tends to increase (even though its boundary value at inlet is kept fixed for each set of computation); however, the radial velocity field remains almost invariant. The present analysis shows that, with a suitable selection of the combination of geometric and flow parameters, the use of nanofluid leads to a significant improvement in the power output (the magnitude of increase would depend on the choice of nanofluid; the sample calculations show more than 30% increase in power output when the volume fraction of nanoparticles increases from 0 to 0.05). Moreover, the gain in power output is achieved without appreciably affecting the efficiency of the turbine. Indeed the present study shows that it is possible to achieve a high efficiency (a figure of 56% is included in the paper as a sample case), revealing the potential of the Tesla disc turbine to emerge as an attractive engineering product in the field of micro-turbines." @default.
