WARNING - LOUD!
Gav plops down the high speed camera next to a rocket engine with 45,000lbs of thrust and the results are epic. Big thanks to Firefly for allowing us to film at their facility and BBC Click for letting us use their behind the scenes footage from the day.

For real. All those engineers have got to be so stoked to have that amazing footage of the startup. As I understand it, the startup cycle is one of the most difficult things about a rocket to perfect. I imagine it’s also super hard to model and then subsequently gathering data to validate and constrain those models. This has got to be very helpful.

The pulsing at start-up is a good example of why starting a rocket engine is so hard, it is very easy to end up in feedback loops that result in the engine either exploding or the flame dying out.
@Ergzay
@Ergzay 8 ай бұрын
Yeah the pulsing at start-up is actually evidence that they haven't really finished tuning the engine at this point yet (at the time it was filmed). It means there's still combustion instability.
@fighteer1
@fighteer1 8 ай бұрын
@@ErgzayI’m not completely sure that’s true. Reaver uses the tap-off cycle, meaning a portion of the exhaust from the main combustion chamber is diverted to power the turbine that drives the pumps. Starting up the engine would involve a series of transients, not a linear increase in power. Reavers have flown several times now so they no longer count as developmental, but I’m sure there’s still room for improvement.

Since the forces aren’t delivered instantly, there must be a disequilibrium until the engine stabilizes.

Very cool! That resonance during the startup transient was awesome to see (if not a little scary)! Love seeing the TEA-TEB shot leading into the full propellent mixture in slow motion. Also, the tap-off cycle is "simple" and elegant, but it's a challenging cycle to start since the propellent flow is directly coupled to the pressure in the thrust chamber. In other words, the flow downstream is what creates the flow upstream in the first place. So the resonance leading to those waves at the beginning is most likely due to the time it takes the valves on the tap-off to move in order to modulate pressure into the pumps along with the fact the pressure is constantly changing. I would be very curious to see the same footage shot in five years when Firefly have optimized the Reever even more.

This kind of informative content is some of my absolute favorite not just on this channel but on KZfaq in its entirety. It's also fun to see Gav go back and forth between goofing off in some videos and being an absolute pro like in this one.

that ignition sequence is one of the coolest things I've seen in slow mo... one of the coolest things I've seen period. The shockwaves as the engine was pulsing over that initial puff of flame looked absolutely magical. Some Hollywood animator will have wet dreams on how to implement that into film...

Amazing footage! I'm really curious to see what the footage would look like if you guys had another shot, or multiple shots; are you guys going to do more collaborations with Firefly? Or potentially the SpaceX Raptor 2 in McGregor? They perform multiple tests a day, and regularly horizontal tests like these.

There's just something mesmorizing about watching and hearing such powerful events. I'd absolutely love to see more footage like this!

I can tell you, after working on jet engines made in the 50’s to now being next to one during light off is an amazing experience. Everything around it shakes like absolute hell, it’s extremely loud, even with soundproof headsets on and ear plugs in it is at a near deafening volume. You can also just feel a solid wave just slam against you.

That was an incredible video - I'd love to see more "natural" forces in slow-mo. Stuff like this rocket test is the reason I love you guys so much

Wow, yeah there were definitely moments where I wasn't sure if it was slow mo or not! The pure power coming out of rockets is amazing.

I think slow mo has to be the best medium for overpowered displays of physics.

Incredible!!! Would love to see this again even slower, the speed of the flames is a crazy still, truly beautiful and terrifying.
