Ken Rieli is a global leader in disc turbine technology development. Since 2001 his company, PNGinc, has sponsored a popular online forum for Tesla disc turbine developers, including many how-to articles on turbogenerator applications in solar & thermal systems posted on the Phoenix Turbine Builders Club.

For several years I have been developing rocket and gas turbine engines. At one time I had the idea of building a pulse combustion turbine, so I developed several pulse combustion chambers working with conventional reaction turbines. Then I heard about a simple and reliable turbine, the Tesla turbine, and I built several models. The one in the pictures was projected to work on hot pulse combustion gases with a heat transfer to produce steam, to be injected also in the turbine.

An ex-soldier and helicopter engineer of the British Army, I soon discovered a love for turbines and a direction to pursue presented itself when I became aware of the little known boundary layer turbine invented by Nikola Tesla more than a century ago. I began working on a design for a Hydrogen on-demand turbine generator and in August 2010 open sourced this technology to the people of the world. The Hydro Electro Lytic Turbine became the first in a long line of new technology directions for the global population to develop independently in the quest for energy self sufficiency and freedom.
