Team Omega

With four teams of each five students improving the turbine designs it seems to be time to organize a match. All four teams have working turbines which all should be an improvement of the first two designs. Last Friday I met one of the teams at the Academieplein location of the Rotterdam university of Applied Science.

Team Omega (Ruben Willemen, Therry Baas, Ricardo Mertens & Lodewijk Voorhoeve) found enough sponsors to provide them the parts for their designed turbine. One of the nice advantages is the nozzle, which is a 3D-printed part. This makes cheap experiments with the nozzle possible.

The testrun they performed showed pretty good results already. A youtube video is available already:
