    You're a great guy to share your knowledge. Dad was a F4 test pilot for McDonnell Douglas. He'd bring that thing screaming back over the farm and break the sound barrier on purpose.it took him an hour to drive to work and five minutes to get from there to over the farm in the F4. You could do that back in the early sixties. I was just a boy I thought he was a God!

    Thanks for the feedback. I'm hoping to take my channel from a collection of simple exhibitions of things to an actual useful learning resource.
    It's a big step, and it's going to take a lot of work.
    Just today, a few hours ago, I tried to make an instructional video explaining compressor theory (including diffusion), but I needed to understand the subject matter better in order to explain it with clarity.
    ... Working on it, and I hope to complete it soon !

    My Dad was one of the engineers who designed the J-79 along with Gerhard Neuman and others. The perforations in the combustors were not just for cooling but also to add extra air to make combustion more complete and reduce smoke.

  • @AgentJayZ
    @AgentJayZ  11 ปีที่แล้ว +23

    A "jet engine" is a gas generator with an exhaust-acceleration nozzle attached to the back of it.
    A helicopter engine is a gas generator with a free-power turbine attached to the back of it, which feeds its torque into a gearbox to drive the rotors.
    Apart from size differences, they are the same type of gas generator. Smaller ones may use centrifugal compressors vs axial, but they are the same thing in terms of design.

    Interesting videos, JayZ. You brought back a lot of fond memories with your J-79 instructions. I have been maintaining and overhauling jet engines for 42 years...I am retired Air Force and also work in commercial aviation at a jet engine overhaul facility located in the Miami area of South Florida. I cut my teeth on J-79s in Okinawa and Korea in the early 1970s, and later taught J-79 QEC buldup and teardown as an instructor at Chanute Airplane Farm in the late 1970s. Nice job!

  • @AgentJayZ
    @AgentJayZ  13 ปีที่แล้ว +12

    @justforever96 The turbine nozzles are located upstream of their respective turbine stage, while a compressor stator is located downstream of its respective stage, otherwise the two components are similar.
    Stators decelerate air coming off a compresor stage, raising its pressure, and direct it at the next.
    Turbine nozzles accelerate exhaust gases, lowering their pressure, and direct them towards turbine.

    I was a J-79 Mechanic on the F-4 Phantom II way back in 1966-1970 era. Spent about half my time in the shop, and the other half working flight line maintenance. Every service did things a little differently. Out engine starter was on the rear side of the accessory gear box. We had a CSD and Generator on the very front of the engine at the inlet...........the pad you indicated was incomplete. It was encased in a stainless cowl. Many a time I crawled up the inlet to change this unit. The country was already HOT and then you add the engine heat.........well you get the idea. After while you are slipping and sliding in your own sweat. Needless to say, I was THINNER back then. JB

    • @jerrybrownlee1753
      @jerrybrownlee1753 10 ปีที่แล้ว +16

      ajay kumar That question would be hard to answer as the exhaust nozzle was variable....in that the nozzle changed as throttle position changed. The engine temperature (commonly know as EGT) was monitored by the Temperature Amplifier and it sent signals to change the exhaust nozzle to keep the EGT regulated. At idle the nozzle was full open, and as power was increased to max. (military) power the nozzle closed. It would be fully closed at max. power. When A.B. was selected, the nozzle would open back up to full to allow maximum thrust. If you watched the nozzle closely during all power ranges it was always in a state of "flux" because it was being used to keep the correct EGT. Hope this helps. Jerry

  • @AgentJayZ
    @AgentJayZ  14 ปีที่แล้ว +10

    @cheetawolf The compressor is designed to operate efficiently at maximum power and engine RPM. Without the variable inlet guide vanes and variable stators, it would not be able to get up to that speed from idle.
    The variable vanes direct the airflow towards their stages at the appropriate angle for the rotor rpm, airflow velocity, and the rotor blade angle of attack.
    For a more detailed answer, read "the jet engine" by Rolls Royce", an excellent introductory text.

    Those are shielded electrical lines that carry the low voltage signal generated by the thermocouples just aft of the last stage of the turbine. They indicate EGT or exhaust gas temperature.
    The circular arrangement of thermocouples is divided electrically into two halves, so there are two lines.

His name was John Mullen........and at one time he was at Little Rock AFB.........most likely in the mid to late 60's. We also had a Captain that I am close to that flew for FEDEX and he was a "Hustler" pilot. His name was "Buck" Carroll. Buck was a very interesting character and still alive. I think he is fast approaching the 90 mark. The B-58 was way ahead of its time. Beautiful airplane though. My understanding it was a "bear" to work on. Everything was secured with high stress fasteners and even getting into any compartment was work. JB

    Yes, like this, but a few details might help.
    "Air" does not turn "the shaft". The turbine takes energy from the expanding exhaust gases and converts it to torque on a shaft connected to the compressor. The compressor, turned by torque supplied by the turbine , compresses air and feeds it to the combustors, which mix fuel with the air and burn it, supplying the hot expanding exhaust gases to the inlet of the turbine. Your last sentence is true but unexplained, therefore confusing.

    Growing and shrinking do to heating and cooling is not avoided, it is accomodated.
    All the metals in the hot end are special alloys that get theri strength from their composition, rather than any sort of heat reatment. Any sort of heat reatmant would be negated by the annealing effect of the first time the engine ran.
    Alloys of nickel and iron, which keep their strength at very high temperatures.

    with all your knowledge on these engines im surprised you havn't made a model or something, a small engine that could fit in a car or something. really enjoyed watching, love to learn new things and turbines are at the top of the list at the moment. keep up the great videos

    Wow, I remember these when I was in the Air Force, along with J-69's and J-85's 42350--F4E's, C-141's, T-38's and T-37's

    I think you might be looking at the fuel nozzle mounting bosses. Bleed air is taken from various points in the actual compressor cases.

    Very nice explanation; we had one of these, non-afterburner model, in our test stand at A&P school. It seems thousands of these are available.

    Very good job sir without making it too geeky. The musical blades was a pretty cool distraction. Shows you can stop and enjoy the abstracts of life... Cool video..

    Simply amazing... Believe it or not, the IGV's are very similar to many IGV assemblies on centrifugal refrigeration compressors. The old Westinghouse/Mcquay centrifugals had IGVs and rear diffusers (variable outlet) that worked in sync with the IGV assemblies. to assist in the variable capacity capability of the 'pump', if you may. Tolerances were critical. Thanks for the video.. I always loved the J79's in my favorite plane, the F104.

    Somehow the comments went from a J79 (GE) to the R&R RB211, but to make even clearer to Mr. Bradley below, the RB211 is what's called three-spool engine, and as AgentJayZ stated, each spool has it own compressor as well as their own turbine, but no "three piece shaft" as you stated and corrected by AgentJayZ. Great video, guys. I'm well up to speed on this technology, but still amazed how well you explain things in just plain English, and not just this video but others. Thanks.
