@@wllwll-zh7ig from Germany's point of view they were very much in their lane. First of all redressing the wrongs of the Versailles treaty and then acquiring the lebensraum or living space they thought their future required. This is why we have conflict, because what our lane is is a highly subjective idea. Looking at the whole situation what boggles my mind is Germany had several opportunities where they might have settled for half a cake but they decided not only that they wanted the whole thing but they wanted to eat it right now. So from my point of view even though the cost was immense it's probably for the best and that our favorite little Austrian extrovert wasn't much of a strategist. Imagine what would have happened it had Germany not declared war on the United States in 1941 or if Hitler had had a brain wave and accepted Stalin's offer to join the Axis in 1940. He might also have simply not invaded the Soviet Union letting him concentrate elsewhere or the UK might have gotten a clue and come to terms in 1940 when everything seemed against them.

Anyone who has ever seen the flamethrower blow torch effect of pulverized coal blown into a boiler in a power station or locomotive (like the Henschel Locomotives of the 1950s) will know that a coal powered ram jet would work. It's completely plausible and doable. A small rocket in the middle of the ramjet would induce an airflow for starting the ramjet at zero speed and could then be switched of.

@@DeliveryMcGee The first diesels were low speed diesels and worked by injecting the fuel with highly pressurized air. It certainly could have been possible to inject dose in pulverized coal to a chamber and inject it. The issue would have been the effect of erosion on the pistons. High speed diesels only became possible due to Robert Bosch's direct injection patents. -Today there are a number of "clean coal" programs which would purify and clean the coal first and then burn it in a closed brayton cycle gas turbines. These transfer the heat into the working fluid by walls and the coal never touches the turbine. ABB operated such turbines for power generation in the 1950s and 60s. They worked very well. The idea of 'clean coal' is to collect the CO2 and sequester it underground (depleted oil wells, aquifers)

-Pulverized coal when blown into a power station boiler or a locomotive boiler looks like a fame thrower or blow torch. Having seen it and seen it be controlled its entirely plausible. -Antony Kay's "German Jet Engines and Gas Turbines" talks of the constant volume Holzworth gas turbines that were operated by the German railways as peak load generators in the 1930s which used coal. In this type of gas turbine compressed air is admired into a combustion chamber via a poppet valve and then the valve closed and ignited. The hot air is exhausted over an exhaust poppet valve to drive a turbine. There are usually two chambers to ensure constant flow. It worked well on oil but on coal the water cooled turbine eroded. -So called closed bray ton cycle gas turbine engines ran for years in Switzerland of coal and may make a come back as part of the clean coal programs around the world.

Exactly, as a coal pellet powered ramjet, turbojet or turbofan engine is possible. However, there were issues. With the Lorin ramjet, there were three main issues: The rotating basket would need to be replaced every flight, liquid fuel made from coal had a better power to thrust ratio, and the weight of the fuel to range of a liquid fuel made from coal was better than the Lorin ramjet... The same holds true for a turbo jet or turbofan engine made from coal, but that also has the major issue of damaging the turbine blades due to the coal deposits making them out of balance... Of course using coal to make a solid fuel rocket engine would likely be a better idea, as solid fueled engines have been made using synthetic rubber and aluminum oxide. Fortunately, the Nazi's didn't have the aluminum to waste as part of the oxidizer...

The Bergious Hydrogenation process at the time was about 55% 60% efficient so you loose 40% of the heating value of the coal. The more compact Fischer-Tropsch plants was even less efficient (40%). The real problem was that the Plants could easily be bombed and were. The Geilen plan at the end of the war planed for 1 massive underground Bergius Hydrogenation Plant and 6 dispersed hardened hidden Fischer Tropsch plants plus dozens of mini plants. -In reality the German synthetic coal to fuel plants had 90% of the output destroyed and were repeated bombing targets.

So I work in Aerospace, and a few years back, I had a long conversation with an old engineer (now retired) about building a ram jet that operated on coal dust. This guy had done some research on it, and in his explanation to me, commented that there is such a device used to both pull grain dust out of silo's and consume it, considering grain dust is also extremely explosive - requiring grain elevators to have all manner of dust suppression systems to prevent disaster. Also note that one of my coworkers lost her brother in a grain elevator explosion... giving weight to the notion that if coal dust were fed into a ram style combustion tube, you could likely get reasonable thrust. In a ram jet configuration, the dust delivery would likely need some sort of augur system to move the dust from the fuel bins (a bit like the olde steam trains had for delivering coal) and there would need to be considerable spark suppression to keep the fire where it ought to be and not working its way backward into the storage system... but it does seem that since coal dust is a good bit more volatile than coal chunks, a working flying thing could be built... After our conversation, I started imagining some sort of steam-punk coal powered bi-plane design, and I have a few pages of rough sketches working out some of the requirements. No we didn't consider that it could be fast... or be a war machine, but now seeing this video, I'll have to rethink it. Might be fun.

@@josega6338 Hello, yes that was true in a supposedly minor activity. An interviewed historian on the TV many years ago claimed there were some boxes of grenades on board apparently for test purposes. Grenades were a developing format of ammunition at that time and these were an American version of interest to the British. The explosive ability of some dusty atmospheres is well known especially coal and flour. It is the amount of flour in functioning windmills which caused fire in many lightening strikes with the wooden mechanisms adding more solid fuel. If the holds were empty in the ship towards the end of the voyage the shaken coal dust from impact surrounding the area of strike would have hugely magnified the explosion and apparently more recent investigation has indicated the strike was the in the area of empty coal storage. The explosive munitions theory was raised almost immediately as a defence against sinking a passenger vessel with substantial loss of life though it was unlikely at the time anyone had a full knowledge of the manifest. Lots of politics in the cradle of war!

I would believe unless this is a job for heavily indoctrinated SS men that most pilots trying to fly this thing would fire 5 rounds, realize how retarded and flimsy the thing is and how unlikely it even is the machinegun is gonna do any damage at all, spot the tailgunner of the bomber already getting him on his sigths and just ditch the plan and eject as soon as possible.

Ramming into bomber's wings ort tail was not in the design features of L-13/ DM-1; simply, fom the swept of leading edge, it will slip. This aim was in other machines that never flew, as Zeppelin Rammer. An smart approach to sending bombers down was a photoelectric cell [A Einstein got his Nobel price from this, after attending lectures on the subject in a German University, his Croatia-born (as Nikola Tesla) first wife, Maliç, who transposed his ideas into mathematics, made him give her the money from Nobel price when splitting], the fighter passed below bombers; when photoelectric cell detected one above, it automatically fired a battery of rockets or cannons, angled 45º upwards.

The thickness of the wings was deliberate in many of his designs to accommodate both a twist in the section and encompass machinery. The difference in control technology by Norden was the clamshell control on the end of the wing but Horten discovered early on the the corrective surfaces had to vary both up and down at the same time and did it by gearing them together. Two designers chasing the same problems independently!

That was a really clever idea, using coal to produce carbon monoxide, and then burning that. I can see why this might be too low thrust, not all that much carbon monoxide is produced. But maybe it would work if it had on-board oxygen instead of an air intake. Things become a lot more explosive in the presence of pure oxygen.

When being recirculated and heated past a certain temperature, the Carbon Dioxide loses one of it's Oxygen atoms, becoming Carbon Monoxide.

"does not incorporate vertical control surfaces", not quite correct, flying wings do not incorporate additional stabilising surfaces. Pitch stability in flying wings is usually attained by incorporating a reflexed wing profile to produce a positive pitching moment coefficient. Yaw stability is another matter, many flying wings did incorporate some kind of fin and rudder surfaces to prevent flat spin. The Prandtl wing is not only finless solution for yaw stability, by progressively reducing the Cl zero at the tips, leading to the whole L/D vectors rotating forward, this means that in a roll, the upgoing tip has a component of forward thrust while the down going tip has drag, yawing the wing into the banked turn. Conventional aircraft experience adverse yaw in response to allerion control, which necessitates a fin and rudder to counteract. This conventional solution is a balance between Dutch roll instability & spiral dive instability. Prandtl's 1933 solution is by far the most efficient, the Hortons used it for their war and post war designs, but it largely went unnoticed by the rest of the world. NASA only seems to have discovered it in the 80s or so, but they do give Prandtl the credit. So the upshot is that apart from the Hortons, all successful flying wings either had drag devices such as fins & rudders or were death traps waiting to happen.
@williamzk9083
@williamzk9083 Жыл бұрын
The Me 163 used wing sweep, leading edge slots and a small amount of reflex for stability. The Horton X and Ho 229 used reflexed autostable airfoil in the thickened bat like center section but a combination of 2 degrees twist and wing sweep for the remainder of the wing. Northrop used wing sweep a huge amount of twist (4 degrees) and slats. Slats and slots produce a slight pitch forward when they act.
@kenwebster5053
@kenwebster5053 Жыл бұрын
@@williamzk9083 Yes, the Me 163 used reflex to solve for pitch stability, but used a fin & rudder to solve adverse yaw, relying on the pilot. The Horton wings all used the Prandtl wing or a close approximation to it. They tended to have a long root chord extending far back. This area of the wing had the highest Cl & therefore highest camber. In the interests of putting reflex as far rearward as possible, the root chord is where that would be most noticeable. The tips were meant to be at zero Cl, therefore pretty near zero camber, consequently reflex there would be hard to pick, depending how the reflex was generated. Not sure which Northrop design you refer too. Accounts I read indicate they were rather difficult to fly requiring a lot of the pilot. The huge amount of twist is similar to the Prandtl's solution, unloading the tip to zero Cl. I didn't think Northrop was aware of Prandtl's solution, though on reflection, the wings were mostly post war. NASA didn't seem to publish anything on the Prandtl wing till the 80s, and their early reports indicated that Prandtl's paper had been overlooked. Perhaps it was a national secret shared with Northrop. A feature of the Prandtl wing is that the wing should twist to zero Cl at the tips. The geometric twist, would depend on the aircrafts mean operational Cl. If the wing is to fly fast, then you would have a low amount of camber and low operational Cl, therefore the geometric twist would be smaller than for, a slower wing with a high mean operational Cl. So we can't really draw conclusion from geometric twist alone. Sweep, there are at least a couple of considerations. Aircraft designed for speeds approaching and above supersonic speeds will have a swept leading edge for shock wave reasons, but supersonics is not my area. It is possible to build a straight plank wing that is stable, just relying on reflex alone. However, that can be rather twitchy fast in response to trim (which effectively alters reflex). Wing sweep mostly has a damping effect on flying wing pitch control, making things somewhat "less exciting", but can also reduce the area devoted to reflex, improving efficiency.

"Flying wing" is a media-hype term. It can mean anything that either uses the wing as the major connective structural element holding things together instead of a static-drag tubular fuselage, or which houses most/all internal volume in a wing or lifting surface (see Burnelli aircraft. The CBY-3 is restored in a museum today, and some media talking heads called it a "flying wing", though it had wings and tail) See the "flying heel-lift" youtube on the Arup S-2 from Indiana in the '30s, which was called that, though it had a fin and at least as much fuselage to house the engine and crew. The basis for the Vought V-173, it was 780lb, 37hp, 85 kts with 18kts landing speed, stall-spin proof. Many designers tried completely tail-less, then moved on to wing-tip fins which were a little less terrible. Those that put a big fin aft behind a prop, worked well. Various iterations of sweep on leading and/or trailing edge worked, all with no separate horizontal stabilizer, though some added a little elevator (Payen/Aubrun AP-10. Cheranovsky BICh-3, BICh-7a, BICh-20. Fauvel AV-10, AV-60. By the purist's definition of a "flying wing", which means no fins, the Northrop XB-35 nor the YB-49 counted, since they had vertical fins. See the 1960 Horten I.Ae-38, which doesn't qualify according to many, because of sort of a fuselage and wing-tip fins. Agreement about the purist's definition without a fin having never produced a stable flyable workable plane. (B-2, many hang-gliders and drones and such included.) BTW, see the Russian pre-war Kharkiv KhAI-3. After trim and control issues were worked out, it gained civil airworthiness certification and served for a few years as a general utility transport. 2.2 tonne, 1 tonne payload, 100 hp engine, speeds from 32-78 kts.

@@JFrazer4303 Yes, I tend to agree that the term has no formal definition. I don't disagree with including fins within a flying wing design, it's just that I see the goal as efficiency and fins & rudders are drag surfaces. For that reason, while they are a solution, they are not the ultimate efficient goal IMO. Prandtl's wing appears to offer a path is that direction, though I am aware that it can be a knife edge as with the Ho229 on loosing one engine. A fin & rudder may well have prevented the spiral dive crash. Here is an 8 foot 2ch RC flying wing I designed back in about 1978 or so, as you see it has a fin & body & I still call it a flying wing. I didn't know much aero theory back then but did a series of smaller free flight models to get that far with minimising reflex & determining CG. As you see, it had a sub fin & body, it was meant for an arts course, to resemble a bird & I thought a fin necessary according to things I had read that that time.

Funny thing is that I read a Chinese science research in which they solved a power weight ratio for hypersonic engines by using coal. The principle is to reduce fuel consumption and increase thrust by releasing coal microdust in the ignition chamber. It goes instantly explosive and increases fuel burning by making ignition more homogeneously spread, thus avoiding to waste fuel that otherwise doesn't burn due the nature of the gas (some areas burn and others get away from ignition). So they can increase the explosive effects kicking more power out, reduce fuel consumption and weight, increasing range just by a using some coal dust.

Better to make the coal gas up front amd compress/liquefy it ready to fuel the jet.
