==Boundary layer turbine== This effect was exploited in the [[Tesla turbine]], patented by [[Nikola Tesla]] in 1913. It is referred to as a bladeless [[turbine]] because it uses the boundary layer effect and not a fluid impinging upon the blades as in a conventional turbine. Boundary layer turbines are also known as cohesion-type turbine, bladeless turbine, and Prandtl layer turbine (after [[Ludwig Prandtl]]).
