More than half a century ago, when I was in high school, we had a "science" assembly in the gym that was conducted by a former science teacher from our school. Maybe it was NSA or NASA or something (we had a lot of these things in Maryland in the 1960s), I can't recall. Well the "finale" of his demonstration show was a ram jet that he had mounted to a stand. He gave his patter and then he set off that jet and it went on for about 10 seconds. I think my ears bled. It was the loudest noise (in a gym, no less) that I have ever heard in my life before or since. After the screaming had died down, we walked out of the gym VERY quietly. I passed my principal on my way out. He had a look of fire and brimstone on his face. Needless to say, former science teacher was never invited back.

@@basketballjones6782 It was 50+ years ago, my man, and I didn't take notes. Give me a break. All I know is that it was loudest thing I have ever heard in my life--and I've witnessed a dozen or more KSC rocket launches.

German ingenuity at its finest 💪 The jet engine was developed simultaneously by the British too, but the german ones were far better, their planes significantly faster too, and it was a coaxial jet engine, compared to the british one. Frank Whittle said he respected his co-inventor
As a science class helper I had to start up a desk top size pulse jet at the end of class I disliked it very much because it was so ungodly LOUD !! You can’t wait to shut it off !!!
...indeed, it sucks its own flame backward into the engines combustion chamber to reignite the following load of ignitable fuel/air mix. In fact, that's the way it works. 👍🍻🤘
@@kweetniet1103 no it’s not. It’s not sucking its own flame. Pulse engines on each cycle push hot gases out of even the intake. The hot gas that remains in the chamber is what ignites the fuel air mixture . The atomised fuel ignites when contacting the hot gases Not flames. It’s not sucking the flame back in. That’s an illusion due to the wave of a vacuum being formed after each ignition:
Yeah guys this is why your seeing the flame like that. It's because of the frames that camera is taking. Like when you see a car wheel going backwards even though the car is going forward at 30mph.
I used to build little pulsejets and scrapyard-turbines back in the 90s, but I always dreamed of building an Argus replica ... I drew up a quarter scale version using miniture reed-plates decades ago, but never got round to actually building it (no idea if would work directly scaled down, but should be close). I'm amazed no one ever did it as far as I know.
Die Grundlage aller Abgasgeladenen 2 Takt Motoren ❤😁👍. Sehr schön,das sich jemand mit dem Pulsstraltriebwerk befasst und es der Öffentlichkeit zugänglich macht 😁.
Warum nutzte die V1 keine 2 Takt Motoren? Scheinen ja billig zu sein. Bei 4 Takt Motoren schmelzen die Auslassventile. Beim 2 Takter müsste die Schlitze an einer Stell liegen, wo der Kolbenring schnell drüber rutscht, sodass der und der Kolben zumindest nur kurz im heißen Abgaß-Strom liegen. Unterdruck vom Auspuff und Überdruck vom Fan spülen dann die letzte Hitze raus.
@@DuDarfstMichSiezen genau. Nagel mich nicht drauf fest,aber bis zu dem Zeitpunkt, als Kaaden den Resonanzkörper für sich und die 2 Takt Motoren entdeckt hat,waren die 2 Takter nicht "schwach" auf der Brust,aber eben lang nicht so Leistungsfähig.
My grandad said the scary part was when the V1 engine stopped making its noise... he never quite got over his feelings of animosity towards Germans I think.
Herrlicher Krach !! Die Ringflammen am Anfang sind ja wohl Spitze. Später dann im kontinuierlichen Lauf sieht man die Frequenz, mit der der Schub zu- und abnimmt. Die Flamme schießt erst durch und fächerst sich weiter hinten auf, dann kommt sie näher und expandiert schließlich unmittelbar hinter der Mündung. Dadurch entsteht dort Unterdruck, der die nächsten Verbrennungen wieder normal ablaufen läßt, bis dann das ganze sich wiederholt. Die Verbrennung beginnt sich selbst zu blockieren - zumindest auf dem gezeigten Betriebspunkt. Aus meiner Sicht müßte der Konus schlanker und das Endrohr entsprechend kürzer sein, damit nach hinten der Widerstand geringer wird. Für das Flammenspiel gibt es jedenfalls 10 Extrapunkte.
A V1 killed my grandmothers aunt and cousin during the war. I think the v1 was far more scary than the V2, although the V2 made a much bigger explosion and crater. When you heard the V1 engine stop, you knew it was going to drop down somewhere close by.
@TheRealNeill It's crazy if they used the same power of explosives. I've seen both a v1 and a v2 at the imperial war museum in London, and the v2 is fkn huge lol. Over my local park there was a manor house that was damaged from a v2 that landed maybe 400 meters from the house. It apparently caused a crack all the way up the house from top to bottom at that distance. There is a small crater still remaining (about the size of a doodlebug crater) but the huge crater from the blast was filled in back in the early 50's I believe. I saw a huge crater on a Patrick Lancaster video in Russia where a Ukrainian tochka u rocket had hit a farmers field and i think it was a similar size to the craters the v2's used to make.
Yeah I think the V1 was more of a psychological weapon then a destructive one. It obviously packed a punch but same as the Stukas air siren it scares the living crap out of anyone hearing it
the sound is scary sure , what scared the people of Britain the most was when the sound stopped , it meant it reached its destination and would plummet
I love the light and darkness lines running down in the area lit by the exhaust, and how the exhaust looks almost static or in reverse at times. Only makes me want to be there even more.

Yes, but mind you that normally it was launched on a catapult to catch up speed and air. In alternative it was carried on the He 111 but was too vulnerable....
@@paoloviti6156 For the catapult launch, was it launched first and the engine started before moving, or was the engine started before launch? I always envisioned that the engine was started first. Especially as much trouble as they were having getting it to start here, when launched off a catapult you have only one chance for it to light, if it doesn't the cruise missile crashes.
@@quillmaurer6563 thanks for elaborating and you are correct. It only starts after the launch after gulping rushed air. Not very reliable this method but it worked somehow...
@@paoloviti6156 A catapult induced, constant high speed full volume of air rushing over those spray bars pouring 20 litres per minute into the chamber...and with spark ignition....why would it not start. The leaf blower has a too-concentrated area of moving air if held too close to the intake so the mixture is going to be weak...hence the 'backfires"...at the start. You could liken it to trying to start an old fashioned gasoline engine by using a weak starter motor and no choke (choke provides excess fuel for a cold start)....
