Any idea on performance compared to modern centrifugal compressor? I hear the axial style compressor is now, years later, not as efficient as new centrifugal designs. Not saying anything negative. My instincts tell me the axial is better. And my instincts are terrible.
What if we put planetary reduction gears into the mix? Amateurs who did not care spun up turbines to velocities which make no sense for even a centrifugal compressor. So I propose one reduction to the centrifugal stage and another reduction to a large diameter axial stage ( 3 stages a actually). Pressure feed oil into bearings and gears.
im going to do a remake of this fairly soon. starting to get to grips with 5 axis milling. it would be easier to mill an axial rotor than a centrifugal
Hi, beautiful work and I hope you get this message. I know this video is a few years old but I'm very interested in a RC jet project build around an engine like this. Any chance we can talk, maybe email or a brief call? Thanks.
How many pounds of thrust does this little jet engine produce statically ?
Congratulations on an amazing build, thanks for sharing!
We definitely need to film this in HD and stereo!
+ArcturanMegadonkey
yes, and then fly it in something
That was your chief engineer at the end of the video I surmise? Brilliant work and diligence! Keep us posted !
yep, it was recorded on the laptop webcam, he saw himself on the screen and started an argument
yes, dont annoy him, hes a taekwondo black belt now
@@waspsnest how much thrust did this model generate??
Are the plans to this available?
can I buy the cad or sol files tor this?

Just... Amazing!
Just wow I'm kinda jealous

sorry i just saw your message. my email is pheward@yahoo.com
Lovely engine shame about the sound quality
Wonderful! is it me, or do phd students seem younger and younger these days!😂
