Turbojet engines are an incredible piece of 20th century engineering that except for some edge cases, have mostly been replaced by Turbofans. Still, even the most basic early designs were ...

A bladeless turbine design converts the static electricity naturally generated by dust particles in compressed air into usable power while neutralizing the hazardous charges. (Nanowerk Spotlight) Most ...

A century after Nikola Tesla sketched a turbine with no blades, researchers are now using that same counterintuitive design to pull useful power out of static electricity. The latest experiments pair ...

Lagos — A new study published in Advanced Energy Materials by researchers at Chung-Ang University reports a Tesla turbine–inspired electricity generator that produces high-voltage electrical output ...

Turbophase enables combustion turbine owners and power grids to increase flexibility, power, and efficiency, which is critical at a time when dispatch of renewable energy is growing. Combustion ...

Newly formed firm Energy Storage and Power plans to make compressed-air energy storage machines for utilities that need storage for wind and solar power sources. Martin LaMonica is a senior writer ...

Recently, we discussed the prospect of using compressed air as a form of energy storage. Unfortunately, it's hard to get much in the way of details on how the process actually works; there's only a ...

California is set to be home to two new compressed-air energy storage facilities – each claiming the crown for the world’s largest non-hydro energy storage system. Developed by Hydrostor, the ...
