  • Hello guys, I needed a break away from the motorised throttle build and for the first time in my life decided to point somebody else's design. What a design to start with! It's awesome and I have learned so many new techniques for my designs. This was aviation geekery at its best. Im amazed with what a 3d printer can do and almost want to push this engine past its limits!

      Hello Chris! You Sir are a legend and a warm welcome from me here in Brunei. Great to hear from the designer, and what a design that was! So cool LOL! Very well done and very clever! The whole thing now stands on my desk and will feature in the background of many videos hopefully. I have only just found you on Thingiverse and linked your design there too. Thank you for taking the time to drop by and say hello. Kind Regards Karl.

    In the early 90s, the traveling Smithsonian exhibit -- you know, the Hope diamond, Lincoln´s 10-gallon hat, Dorothy´s shoes, and a Moon Buggy, came to town, which I was happy to visit.
    What _really_ blew my mind, though, was a slowing rotating _perfect_ quarter scale model of a commercial turbofan engine at the egress of the exhibit. I have come to realize this as one of the first examples of additive construction. The model was even sized to incorporate thousands of titanium bolts -- a quarter the size as those actually used.
    Wonderful!

      I really do love this build, you went above and beyond in creating it. Most of the few models that exist don't have a cowling or pylon, which I think adds so much to the aesthetics and feeling (well, looking at it on screen feeling). I'm still surprised or shocked you can't get a proper model of one (I really wanted one of the iconic GE-90) as I just love Turbofans for some reason. They just get me going, always. And since no one offers it, I decided I'd slowly learn the things necessary to build one myself based on yours and your inspiration sources. At current rate it will be a long while. I've been getting better with electronics, but got slowed down by my own recent moves. Next step is a 3d printer, so full disclosure, I applied for a 3d printer (reason for new comment was I had to find your original video to credit) with stated goal of printing a model similar to yours. Even if I don't get to make one as great as yours I'm just happy someone did it and took the effort and time to record it and share it with the world.
      Good luck with your move, hope it goes smoothly, but box that project well, it's super unique and something that should bring you great pride.

    Did you know that for some of the airbus airplanes , a few engines are attached to the wings by just 3 bolts ? I used to manufacture some when i was working in an aerospace related company. When I discovered that it blew my mind.

    • @rtwileyrc8030
      @rtwileyrc8030 2 ปีที่แล้ว

      The Trent 900 that this 3D printed model depicts is one of those. There are only three “bolted” attachment points to the wing. There is a forth vertical pin from the wing that goes into the pylon but only constrains the thrust of the engine. It supports no weight whatsoever and does not need to be detached to remove the engine. The three bolts are also not solid connections but are actually pivot points themselves. All this is done to carefully distribute the weight, aerodynamic loads, and thrust of the engine to the wing structure without generating additional parasitic stresses.
      This 3D printed model has four bolt attachment points but there would be additional brackets that go between these attachment points and the three bolted connections on the wing. The socket for the vertical thrust pin is modeled in the pylon. Some builders of this 3D model have gone as far as modeling the additional brackets and basic wing structure to attach the engine model.

    Amazing model of a turbine!! I was wondering if teflon spray on the parts that still have some friction, would make it run smoother.

    • @helimech8152
      @helimech8152  2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Hi Sophoclis K, When the design was created, I wouldn't imagine there were many Resin printers available 5 years ago. If I had printed all the parts with a filament printer, I think it would have been super smooth. With a resin printer, my parts come out 0.4mm bigger in diameter. This caused friction against the filament casings. However, Chris the designer actually designed the rotors with wear rings. So as the unit was rotated more and more these wear rings bedded in and the friction reduced. I also need to replace those 3d printed bearings with new steel bearings. This should also improve the running of the unit.

    • @skesinis
      @skesinis 2 ปีที่แล้ว

      @@helimech8152 My first and very brief experience with a 3D printer was with a raisin one, about 11 years ago but it was so expensive at that time, it would make it impossible to own one. I was so impressed back then, even with the simplest sample: a ball embedded in a nut with a spherical cavity, which would make it impossible to be created as two separate parts and then put them together as such. Since then, 3D printing has become much more affordable, but still what people can do with it still amazes me! That jet engine model is a marvel and I’d really like to see a video when you’ll have all the things that you mentioned sorted out!

    Have you thought of using 3dGloop instead of CA glue. It’s a chemical weld rather than adhesion. Particularly when sanding produces a better surface of the joint since it’s all PLA (Note fumes aren’t awesome for you)

I'm following the colors that you used, except to the parts printed using resin printer. To due size limitations, I'll print the nose cowl inlet lip in parts. Do you printed this part in one piece, correct? Have you painted this part?

  • @davidthompson9359
    @davidthompson9359 ปีที่แล้ว

    Thank you for the video. 3D printing these parts wouldn't the ringing and ghosting be too much for a jet engine model or is that FDM 3D printing? How would you design parts to create a specific engine and aircraft. I would like to build a 1/35 or 1/24 scale S-3 Viking, but how do you get the design measurements to create the parts and put it together? I'm also thinking of working on one of the aircraft carriers that I was on.

    • @rtwileyrc8030
      @rtwileyrc8030 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      I’m the designer of the nacelle. - I printed the prototype on an inexpensive FDM printer. To prevent ringing and ghosting I tend to keep the accel/decel values low. I use 200mm/s^2. At that rate a print speed of 60mm/s produces no discernible ringing. To design the nacelle I traced readily available pictures obtained from the internet. Everything was scaled to fit to jet engine design by CATIAV5FTW. But it came in at a scale of almost exactly 1/16 from the full size nacelle.
