Anyone know of a source for SMALL steam turbines?
    #5928674 - 08/03/06 02:04 PM (17 years, 5 months ago)

Like something that I can hold in my hand...that small. Preferably multi-staged for use in medium or high-pressure steam applications.

Anyone know of any?? I'd really rather not have to try and turn one out on a lathe...

I think my application is fairly close to the one you were asking about the other day with the huge cooling tower...except I'm thinking of a much smaller footprint :wink:

Are you considering actually powering it with steam?

No, I'll be using something with a much lower BP...

Thanks for the links, guys!

That's what I thought.

Keep in mind that the theoretical maximum efficiency of any heat engine is limited by the temperature gradient (efficiency <= 1 - TL/TH). But now you got me thinking about this as well...
