I think your Rotr blades were backwards. Usually, you would put the thick nose to the front. Also, for turbines, the first row is usually a ststor or a nozzle section, not a rotor
For the order: it depends on what the incoming air is doing. Think of it this way: the rotors work best when the airflow is purely axial. If the incoming air is already purely axial, the stator will just decrease efficiency. In a jet engine, the first stage of the turbine is sometimes a stator because the air flow coming out of the combustion chamber might have a radial or rotating component.
@@RichardBetel That is not correct. You can get more power out of the turbine if the flow is preswirled. That is why there is usually a nozzle stage in front of the turbine rotors, that adds swirl to the axial flow from the combustor.
You need to integrate your air intake into your stages. Right now you're losing all the energy of the expanding air to the intake. Your inlet air should lead directly to a small fan with increasingly larger stages behind. That way you harness airflow AND air expansion. You're effectively building a de-compressor engine.
Just a small tip, hydroelectric turbines on a small scale use gravity as an assist. When you had it connected to your garden hose if you had held it vertically it probably would have worked considerably better.
I've never been able to fully wrap my head around the exact physics of a stator, only a general understanding. Your explanation has arguably closed that gap for me. Thank you.
You should be able to boost the power quite a lot by preswirling your air in the intake manifold before it hits the first rotor, and by putting the air transfer nozzles way closer to the first rotor and not have a big gap in between them. kinda like having the intake holes gradually turn into a stator that nests up against the first rotor as close as the other stators do. Im not saying double the power, but quite some at least.
I'm no engineer, but I was a powerplant operator for a time, and I found this very impressive even if most of the comments are highlighting areas for improvement, you've got more knowledge of turbines than most. Super cool project
Good video. I think due to the size of the turbine you need a bigger volume of air rather than pressure. Get a shop vacuum cleaner and hook hose to the exhaust. Blow that into all the inlets. Try draw a vacuum through it as well.
Or he could maybe make very small airtight exit holes that actually turns the pressure of the air into velocity. That would probably greatly increase performance. I believe that’s what axial steam turbines do aswell
Very cool...in water you should point the turbine down at the ground and let gravity assist the flow on all blades. That's how the turbines are positioned in hydro electric dams. That said your turbine is not designed for water. You would want more of a side entry stream. Keep going and see if you can design a jet turbine engine and have PCBWay print all the parts in metal. Would be a great series of vids.
That's a cool video, I wanted ti see this concept for a while ! However I have a question, why are the foils backward on the rotor and the foils on the stator so thick ?
I'm waiting for metal 3D printing to become dirt cheap like 3D printers of today. Metals can be recycled indefinitely unlike paper and plastics, and opens up a whole new avenue of possibilities. Give it another 5-10 years.
🔥🔧🛩 That would be an epic collaboration! Imagine the possibilities of combining your skills and expertise to build a jet engine. The innovation and engineering involved would be mind-blowing. I'm curious to see how you could harness the power of a 3D-printed turbine to produce electricity. Count me in as a fan eagerly awaiting your next project! 🤩⚡👏
If you use q support blocker in cura you can change the properties inside said support blocker while also having different model settings for your part. Also try flipping the turbine so that it’s standing up when you put water through it.
Like fg said the first row would be nozzles. Instead of blowing it from the front you should attach the nozzle on the outside of the housing directly into the first set of turbine blades. It will give you significantly more torque at low rpms. And you will want to seal you stator to prevent air passing by any cracks. This is how a hp steam turbine works. Amazing work btw would seriously be interested in making one too!!
Have you ever tried balancing your rotary devices? (Fans and turbines. I don’t think gears will get much from balancing) It certainly won’t fix most of your problems, but I think you’ll get quieter faster machines which will probably last longer. Clough42 recently did some videos about tools to do static balancing. Also, the edges at corners of your housing that you needed to sand: if you put a small chamfer it should print better. Also look into your pressure advance settings.
Think you would need to make an end with a small opening for your water version. It should help keep pressure on the blades then, or use a jet washer to assist :)
Great work and use of the 3D printer. It is expected to work only with gas flow, for a water stream you will need a pelton turbine. Great video, thanks.
If you want to get really creative look into radial outflow turbines. Didnt go anywhere as the turbine wheel got too large for big installstions but small versions are great and easy to print. You also get a natural expansion in cross sectional area as you go outwards
air must flow over the rotor blades from the thick edge to the thin trailing edge, you appear to have it backwards. Your set up will work well as a compressor, with the intake on the right 1:25
I was wondering if someone else caught that. Looking at the cross section made my brain hurt until I realized how he'd managed to invert the geometry so weirdly!
no, they are correct. you are simply confusing one aspect, aircraft, with something entirely different...reaction turbines. they have to converge to form nozzles to accelerate the fluid to create... a REACTION. they are "backwards" as that is the only shape that is aerodynamic and also converges. think "heros turbine". it doesnt work as well if its nozzles diverge and expand. maybe you can design a shape that looks more aesthetically correct yet performs the same function, or better? think water sprinkler with rotating arms. they wont spin if the arms dont narrow down, converge into nozzles. contrary to popular belief, that is exactly how a REACTION turbine works. not my fault the education system cant explain two machines that have been in use for over a century without getting their fundamental operation confused. part of the problem may lie in the fact that there are barely any true reaction turbines, and most of them are a mixture of reaction and impulse, whilst there are several examples of true impulse only turbines.
@@paradiselost9946 Nope. The reaction turbine works because the blades cause the moving intake air to change direction and in doing so it exerts a reactive force on each blade , combining to produce torque . The curvature of each blade optimizes the direction change of the air to maximise efficiency. The airfoil shape is simply the most efficient shape to minimize drag losses, but it needs the thick side facing the incoming air. So , just flip the blade profile to accomplish this, keeping all other geometry as it is.
I wonder if the turbine would have spun with water if you had held it up vertically so the water could flow more evenly instead of being collected to one side.
Your turbine doesn't have any expansion which is required to optimise the energy recovery of a compressible fluid. Also, the aerofoil sections are going the wrong direction in your diagrams. I'm not sure if you've carried this across to your design.
A tip for inserting the shaft, I have seen it done with good results where you put the shaft in a drill and spin it whilst you insert it into the part.
To get the turbine to work with water, you will have to get uniform pressure throughout the entire turbine or much higher flow. With a completely open exhaust end, pressure is not building up enough to overcome the waters weight.
Very cool! The water test was a nice touch. Now...can you print it in ASA and run it on steam? That could make it a potentially practical device to charge a phone in a power outage.
I think your rotor blades are backwards. The nose of the airfoil should face the flow. You could make your manifold preswirl the air if you want to increase efficiency even more. Awesome work!
It'd be interesting to see efficiency of it Like how much energy does it output versus the amount of energy needed to compress that air I'd love to see your take on a turbine that is designed for water like a peltier
Looks fantastic amazing project, would be really intresting to experiment with the design of both the front and back lids to increase efficiency. You could almost make the whole thing as modular stages that you can keep adding to the whole assembly. Any possiblity of sharing STEP files so we can have a play with the design.
Hey, this is awesome, super well done!! But one question, isn't the airflow reversed? It seems like the air flow is going from trailing edge to leading edge on the blades instead of leading to trailing. Or is this intensional in these kinds of turbines?
one of the few fundamentals and highly misunderstood parts of a reaction type turbine. the thickening section when you think about it creates a converging nozzle. the air enters the blades as high pressure, low velocity, exiting at a lower pressure at a higher velocity, as per bernoulli. picture it, if you will, as the basic "heros turbine". or, a hose going mad when you turn it on. the nozzle reacts as the fluid accelerates inside it. it then expands, slows down, and increases in pressure before passing through the next stage. still, virtually every turbine is a mixture of reaction and impulse, or pure impulse... the fluid hitting the blades and transferring momentum by slowing down. theres only one or two examples of pure reaction turbine... hence why virtually everyone gets them confused.
most water turbines use gravity also. the turbine is found in a dropper tube. If he had of rotated it so the hose was at the top it would have spun just fine.
Don't want to spoil it for you, I worked at factory producing turbine blades just for ten years or so, but you have rotors backwards. Leading edge is thicker, then is thickiest part of the blade, at 1/4 to 1/3 of length of the profile and then it slowly vanishes into trailing edge, that is relatively sharp (compare to leading edge). Also, profiles for gas or liquid look quite different, not like it can't work at all, but efficiency-wise you can't just switch between those two mediums. liquids (water) tend to be non-compressable after all...
Free Energy Machine... like a Jet Engine to produce Electricity, if you close the loop for the Engine, it shell Spend... try it. Like a refrigerator producing cold stuff.
Shoukd have tried the tirbine vertical with the water flow. Gravety is pulling the water to the bottom messing up the flow of water through the turbine, for it to be horizontal you would need far more flow to get it to spin.
You use sound to get RPM. Look at the frequency spectrum of the audio, look at the highest peaks. They are showing the RMP, or are multiples of the actual RPM. If you already know roughly what ballpark the RPMs should be, find the highest peak in that area and 1/X Hz to get RPS.
Doesn't the turbine depend on the mass passing through the vanes? If so you were creating a venture effect with the air gain and drawing additional air mass through the inlet which would be the reason for the higher RPM. I not a physicist but just a thought.
You should be able to get the water turbine to spin if you constrict the water outlet so that the fluid fills up the turbine's interior. That should create the needed friction from water to turbine blade.
You need a very small nozzle at all of those intakes because compressed air isnt very fast, if you pass it through nozzle the pressure will transfors to speed which your turbine needs, try this experiment with some pc fans and different nozzles like when you blow from lungs directlly to fan, nothing will happens at all, but when tou use straw in front of fan blades your lung pressure will turn air into speed and it will work so much better. Hope this will help you
I'd be interested to see what the turbine immersed in water with a water flow would do. I have a feeling that if the turbine was full then the flow of water _would_ spin the blades, so if not submerged then perhaps add a constrictor on the output so the turbine fills up and allow pressure to build within the turbine so it'll spin.
Fun project if you ignore the fact that air compressors are only 5% efficient and I doubt your even gonna get back even 10% of that 5% with this turbine. Meaning every kilowatt your compressor uses generates like 5w if your lucky 😂 Also point on the splitter is that it offers way to much expansion room. 6 small jets would be better. Restrictions speed up flow drastically. -A compressed air engineer.
You and Integza should build a jet engine together.
Not a bad idea XD

Great Project ....and gets the community talking together to improve on the design and build...keep it going!!
Have in mind that all turbines are designed to be most efficient at certain RPM so a reduction gear for that stepper motor should be neccesary.
Absolutely F'n incredible. Hollywood would do well to hire you for an enormous sum. Your stuff looks more real than reality. Much more.
that's why I love 3d printing community they make anything literally anything.

" I belive it's cooler when the turbine actually spins "
well then, guess you'll need to build a water powered generator next.
putting the turbine outlet facing down will increase the efficiency when running on water
For a turbine running on compressed air, really you want a tapered body so the air is gradually allowd to expand from one stage to the next.
Man I love elect *ir* city
