'''Frank Germano''' is an aerospace engineer and independent researcher known for his work replicating and improving Nikola Tesla's bladeless ("disk") turbine and for advocacy in the alternative- or "new energy" field. He is listed in ''[[The Worldwide List of Dissident Scientists]]''.<br />
<br />
==Work==<br />
Germano runs Tinkerer's Obsession Labs LLC, through which he pursues experimental energy and propulsion projects, most prominently a bladeless disk turbine based on Tesla's 1913 boundary-layer turbine design. He reports having built and operated a replicated Tesla turbine and, on his listing in Jean de Climont's directory, is credited with keeping such a turbine in continuous operation without component failure since October 2000. He also documents research into Tesla's coils, wireless power transmission, and the "Magnifying Transmitter," alongside a conceptual "Bio-Sphere" airship.<br />
<br />
His energy claims and Tesla-derived devices fall outside mainstream engineering practice and have not been independently validated in the peer-reviewed literature. He is catalogued in the PES Network (PESWiki) "new energy" directory of Tesla-turbine researchers.<br />
