    Hi all,
    Thank you for watching😊
    For all who want to see the variable nozzle I made, some time ago, klick on the link.
    In the middle of the video, you can see my variable nozzle working.
    I have to improve the actuation system.
    Sometimes it got stuck, due to heat deformation.
    Next test will be with improved nozzle and an ignition system for the afterburner.💪

      I use to do it in a 200-500K housing development back in the early mid 2000's🤣 all but 3 residents were terrified of me. One time a woman in her late 20's was drug up in my driveway by her great dane. My ignition was $#it, the combustion chamber was purged of o2 by propane and I was committed to strike it and hit the start air. I swear that woman looked like a cartoon flying behind her dog, it was a bit more spl than a 12ga shotgun. I felt bad but the stage was set and would have been worse had I tried to stall because the flame was lit at the exhaust and would imminently have drug the air inside and been much more violent🤷

      If you know how jet engines, and health/safety inspectors work, there's no problem. If it's a hobby, it's not work related, no inspectors needed. If it goes around and wants to go to pieces, then we have to think the forces. It's much more dangerous to be on the side of that engine, instead of back/forth. If you're worrying about melting, well, it didn't. Because of materials.

    There's also a Russian dude here on youtube who has been making and restoring jet engines in his garage for years, with considerable success. He's making a carbon fiber race car in his garage at the moment, sadly not jet powered. And then there's also a fairly recent video, also from a Russian maker, of a hybrid detonation/jet engine. That dude apparently does not have access to advanced machining equipment, nor pre-made helicopter parts, so he _cast and balanced his own compressor impeller_ , and made his own turbine wheel. Reminds me of some of my own projects from like 20 years ago which were completed through pure stubbornness and perseverance. I wouldn't even attempt them now, even though now I have access to almost every conceivable piece of equipment. Which is to say, keep doing what you're doing and do not stop, under any circumstances. This is really well made, and it's a precious experience that, even if the project goes nowhere, you will cherish for the rest of your life more than any "island vacation" or whatever.

    Outstanding progress, Andy! You're just shy of the theoretical upper limit on thrust for that size compressor, and for a single stage, that's remarkable! If freight wasn't so high, I've got a few 170mm compressor wheels around here somewhere that would really move some air in that setup. 😁 I recently picked up 17 rolls of aerospace stainless that needs attention this spring. Didn't need nearly that much, but the price was almost the same for 3 rolls as the whole lot. It was surplus to them, and they were going to scrap it otherwise. Noooo!

      170mm is a bit too much and hard to find a turbine wheel.

      He uses a Mitshbishi TF or TD 13 rotor.

      @@Mediamarked Turbojets from much, much smaller compressor wheels have been successfully run, both on the hobby level and commercial markets for various uses. My first little runt was using a 70mm donor compressor. The things that you need to watch out for are more or less universal to all turbojets, which is limiting your exhaust gas temperature (EGT N1 for a single scroll), which will by nature limit your max rpm when all is operating at max efficiency. I've seen these built with really small 40mm units that wind up to 230,000 RPM, but at those speeds, running specialized ceramic bearings are an absolute must.

    • @Mediamarked
      @Mediamarked 2 місяці тому

      @@C-M-E Yes, but will the size difference between compressor and turbine wheel cause problems. That's what I meant to ask, if a 170mm compressor could be coupled to a 120mm turbine wheel for example, but would it cause more compression and rpm due to the reduced exhaust diameter? Most hobby jets have relatively comparable sized turbine wheels and compressors, so I guess a bigger compressor would not be more effective..

      It's very well designed. After burners are not designed to run infinity. They are for short bursts of extra power, so it's doing exactly what it's supposed to. Afterburner is the only way the Russian MIGs could even keep the SR71 Blackbird in sight for a short period. (Mach 3.2 my butt!) In doing so the Russians generally destroyed the aircraft in the process or at least severely damaged it.

    Very impressive. You know I realized watching this that having seen a number of homemade jet engines over the years. It would be awesome to see an open source turbine project emerge. Where instead of everyone having to spend years duplicating work, there could instead be a collaborative process to DIY'ing and then optimizing a single turbine design. Food for thought I guess....

    Great work! Looking forward to where this project goes next. Doing some very rough math here, but with dry thrust at 45kg and 1.8 l/min of euro diesel, I get a specific fuel consumption of 56.6 g/kN.s, inline with a mid-60's turbojet in afterburner:) If it was in a RC plane doing 360 kph, then fuel efficiency would be 3.9%!

      @@PiDsPagePrototypes Diesel and Jet fuel are rather close in their properties. Jet fuel has a lower freezing point but also a slighthly lower energy density. For normal household turbine engines this differences nearly doesnt't matter.

      @@matekochkoch Check out the test video with a comparison of Jet-A, Diesel, BioDiesel, and HydroDiesel, through a model jet engine, the results are not even close, with Jet-A burning hotter, turning more RPM and making more thrust - 65lbs vs 45lbs for regular Diesel. They might be close in BTU ratings, but they are not close in thier output. Jet-A is a highly refined and pure form of Kerosene.

    Hallo Andy,
    Absolut klasse gebaut
    Der Nachbrenner sowieso.
    Ich wünsche sehr du "fändest " einen " Hobbyflugzeug- Bauer" , der
    dir für kleines Geld ( wenn das überhaupt möglich ist ) die passende Flugzeugzelle mit Tragwerk dazu konstruiert und baut. Dann muss irgendwann noch die Zulassung nach " Luftverkehrs-Zulassungs- Ordnung " erfolgen und du hättest deinen " homemade" Privat- jet.... 😂

      Hi,
      Ha, wenn das Mal alles so einfach wäre😊
      Ich bau gerade das alles eine Nummer kleiner und dann kann ich das in ein "normales Nachbrennermodell" mit max. 25 Kg Abfluggewicht einbauen.
      Danke dir😊
      Mfg Andy

    2:1 thrust/weight ratio is excellent for a homemade jet engine. The off the shelf ones have around 10:1 but they are made in multimillion dollar factories. This was built on a lathe and drill press and you can get everything you need to make one 2nd hand for less than $10,000. Getting the mixture just right takes impressive precision and math skills. 45kg of thrust off a homemade jet is seriously impressive.
