Abstract
An apparatus includes a heater having a combustion chamber, an inlet port to provide fuel into the combustion chamber, and an outlet port to expel exhaust gases from the combustion chamber. The combustion chamber may be insulated. An exhaust channel is operably coupled to the outlet port and is configured to convey exhaust gases away from the combustion chamber. A nozzle, such as a de Laval nozzle, is incorporated into the exhaust channel and is configured to accelerate the exhaust gases through the exhaust channel. A tesla turbine is operably coupled to the exhaust channel and is configured to generate rotational power from the accelerated exhaust gases. In certain embodiments, disks of the tesla turbine are coated with a catalytic material to break apart unburned particles in the exhaust gases. A corresponding method is also disclosed.
