The wind turbine developed and patented by TESNIC is based on the same principles as the Tesla turbine.
The wind turbine patented by TESNIC is a vertical axis wind turbine (VAWT), defined by a rotor assembly having more than 200 disks stacked one on top of each other with a narrow gap between them (≈2mm). The rotor also includes on the circumference of the stacked disks a plurality of twisted airfoil blades as such to redirect the air flow tangentially to the disks surface.
