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.💪 Andy

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.

@C-M-E 4 ай бұрын

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!

Sounds like you're looking after the environment, reusing those rolls so they didn't go to waste. 😊

Hi, Thank you😃 170mm is a bit too much and hard to find a turbine wheel. Racketmotorman John from Australia has a 170mm compressor wheel running. He uses a Mitshbishi TF or TD 13 rotor. Andy

@Mediamarked 4 ай бұрын

@@Praendy Weird question, but would a smaller turbine wheel cause problems? As with the reduction in exhaust comes more compression, maybe more speed of the turbine wheel = too much RPM?

@C-M-E 3 ай бұрын

@@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 3 ай бұрын

@@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.
