tell you how it is and why that's an important feature to have the tesla turbine is a revolutionary piece of machinery that is designed to produce mechanical and electrical power from the kinetic energy of a flowing fluid what does it mean when we say it's reversible firstly without any complex means like a reversing gear the turbine can be spun in the opposite direction all that is needed is for switching mechanism to change the direction in which the food comes rolling in through the district's normal bladed turbines can't do this due to the blade geometry design secondly the tesla turbine is also said to be reversible because it can work like a centrifugal pump or compressor instead of using fluid to spin the discs the rotor can actually be spun to propel the fluid along with the discs as they rotate

thanks for watching we'll see you next time
