Nikola Tesla (July 10, 1856 - January 7, 1943), Serbian-American inventor, physicist, mechanical engineer, and electrical engineer. Tesla was born in Smiljan, Croatia, Yugoslavia on July 10, 1856. In 1895, he manufactured generator sets for the Niagara Power Station in the United States. The power station is still one of the world's famous hydropower stations. In 1897, he made Marconi's theory of radio communication a reality. In 1898, he built the world's first radio-controlled boat and patented radio-controlled technology. In 1899, he invented X-ray (X-Ray) photography technology. Other inventions include: radio, radar, fax machine, vacuum tube, neon light tube, missile navigation, etc. The magnetic density unit (1Tesla=10000Gause) was named after him, indicating his contribution to magnetism. Although he devoted his life to continuous research and obtained about 1,000 (some say 700) patented inventions, this did not make him rich. Tesla has been financially strapped for many years. On January 7, 1943, Tesla died of heart failure in a New York hotel at the age of 86. In 2003, in order to commemorate his idol Tesla, Elon Musk named the Tesla car after him.
Nikola Tesla is a pioneer in the field of electrification and is known as the "man who created the twentieth century". He invented and created the alternating current system and radio technology, which had a profound impact on the modern world industry. had a profound impact. The scientific invention system in today's world is still based on the legacy left by Tesla. Tesla's legacy can be seen everywhere in the modern world using electricity. In addition to his achievements in electromagnetics and engineering, Tesla is also considered to have contributed to various fields such as robotics, ballistics, information science, nuclear physics, and theoretical physics.
Glory years: Tesla established his own company in 1886. The company was responsible for installing the arc lighting system designed by Tesla and designing the power system rectifier for the generator. This design was obtained by Tesla. ’s first patent. Tesla patented the Tesla Coil in 1891. On July 31 of the same year, Tesla became a U.S. citizen. He told his friends that he valued this nationality more than his many scientific inventions. Between 1892 and 1894, Tesla served as vice president of the American Institute of Electrical Engineers (the predecessor of IEEE). In 1893, Westinghouse won the bid for the alternating current lighting project for the Columbian Exposition held in Chicago. This was a major event in the history of the development of alternating current. Westinghouse and Tesla wanted to take this opportunity to demonstrate to the American people the reliability and safety of alternating current.
After winning the famous "War of the Currents" in the 1880s and successfully conducting shortwave wireless communications experiments in 1894, Tesla was considered one of the greatest electrical engineers in the United States at the time. Many of his discoveries are considered groundbreaking and he is a pioneer in electrical engineering. In 1891, after Tesla successfully experimented with sending electricity to target electrical appliances in the form of wireless energy transmission, he devoted himself to commercializing intercontinental wireless transmission of electricity and built Wardenclyffe Tower with this idea in mind.
His achievements are comparable to any inventor or scientist, and many of his discoveries are extremely groundbreaking and important, even surpassing those of Newton, Nobel, Edison and his descendant Einstein. Serial inventors and scientists. He should have been the richest man in the world, but he was in poverty; he had many suitors, but like Nobel, he never married and ended up alone. We can only pay tribute to this old man.
