Abstract
A turbine assembly includes an axial turbine with an axially arranged series of rotor sections and an external sheath providing structural support for the axial turbine, wherein the sheath is made from dense silicon nitride. Each rotor section includes an outer ring and rotor blades and the outer rings of the rotor sections connect to form a rotating outer casing, wherein the rotor sections are made from reaction bonded silicon nitride.
