The document summarizes a student project analyzing the Tesla turbine, an alternative energy device that extracts energy from fluid flowing tangentially between flat disks. The students tested a prototype turbine, measuring its rotational speed, power output, and efficiency. Initial tests found issues with disk flatness, which were addressed. Flow and RPM tests showed a maximum speed of 4000 RPM and flow of 5 pounds per minute. Power calculations were done using kinetic energy equations from sensor data. Modifications to decrease gaps and internal space were made, and further power testing showed performance improvements.
