A Laminar Flow-Based Microfluidic Tesla Pump via Lithography Enabled 3D Printing
Tesla turbine and its applications in power generation and fluid flow were demonstrated by Nicholas Tesla in 1913. However, its real-world implementations were limited by the difficulty to maintain laminar flow between rotor disks, transient efficiencies during rotor acceleration, and the lack of ot...
