Experimental and theoretical study of the viscous shear pneumatic torque motor
This work describes a feasibility study of a new concept in pneumatic turbomachinery. The concept has its origins in the Tesla turbine with a set of closely spaced, flat discs on a shaft. Fluid flows through the gaps between the discs and exerts a force on the disc faces by viscous shear. In this ne...
