Gas Turbine jet S&R PRO

[@glasstronic]

That was DEFINATELY worth the price of admission. Who hasn't wondered what it looks like when that happens? Sorry for the loss, but you gotta great video out of it. Thanks for posting!

[@TL3C7Y]

that was a beautifully spectacular finish to the turbo

[@triton115]

I am not surprised that something came loose. Almost every other video I have seen on youtube of those home built jet engines and turbines show about half the metal surfaces glowing various shades of red, orange, and even yellow during operation.

[@2005GLI]

if im understanding right, they start the turbo with a some sort of leaf blower or air line spinning the intake of the turbo which interns spins the exhaust side pulling/creating vacume in the combustion chamber which then in itself creates enough force to keep itself running with the exhaust it produces which spins the turbo.

[@angusdigby1688]

Piping gets red hot, not much of a problem, exhaust turbine housing gets red hot...always a problem!

[@andrewfloyd4359]

Angus Digby \\\\aaaaaaaaaa\aa\a\aaaaaaaa\aa\\a\aaaaaa⅝5555

[@UnTamedMustang]

Compressor gets red hot....hopefully you're not anywhere near the problem.

[@anonymou3736]

Wow!, You guys are awsome....But I'm watching this after 15 years.

[@ProDigit80]

Yeah, the pipes don't supposed to go red, imagine yellow! That's nuts! At those temperatures the metal won't hold. You got lucky no chip of that yellow metal flew in your direction!

[@juanasanelli6831]

Exelente ,pero deberias de enfriar el lado de la turbina impulsora para que no se funda la propela Tal vez sea posible haciendo que el aire que entra del lado de admision pase primero por la zona caliente y se lleve un poco de calor

[@kinsley2108]

If you build your combustion can properly, then it doesn't matter where it's mounted, the actual hot part of the flame which is about 2000Degrees C will not be touching the metal, it will be shaped by the air that's not being burnt.

[@triton115]

When steel gets hot enough, it will melt. In fact, in other videos of those home made jet turbines in operation, there were times that from the way some of those metal parts were glowing, I would have estimated their temps at around 2,500 and even as hot as 3,000 degrees in some cases.

[@IvanQuaglia]

esto es el turbo de un auto convertido en tubina, es una turbina casera de etapa simple, la teoria es simple, solo hay que agregar una camara de combustion donde mezclar y explotar el cobustible(por decirlo simple)

[@Pitchplus8]

The Turbinewheel was overheated LOOOOL. Nice Vid :-)

[@huddosworkshop9186]

Good setup change the flame tube holes running to hot sorry to say but there is no nut on the exhaust turbine it is just a boss to hold the shaft when doing up the front compressor wheel

[@robajohnson]

So what came loose? That is one of the best running rigs I of this type I have seen on youtube so far. Congrats!

[@DangerZONEpixel]

If it sounds like a pulse jet then it probably is running like a pulse jet. If the turbine doesn't spool up fast enough wen you start it, it will just run slow and not push enough air into the combustion chamber. Also it could have somthing to do with your air/fuel ratio. If your running it too lean, the fuel tends to burn out before enough fuel can go back in to replace it. Causing the effect of a pulse jet.

[@combomaster99]

@highvoltagefeathers wasn't trolling bro, it seemed to me the blades melted because of the heat. Eventhough a turbo is oil cooled its not made to widstand this kind of heat/force.

[@stevethul1]

new turbine time, the blades went out in little blobs and sparks... same thing happen to me when things got too too hot... Ouch!

[@Nynexx]

what if that blew up when you where standing behind it. ?

[@highvoltagefeathers]

that wasn't a nut comming loose, that was a turbine melting.

[@dalhimar]

Decent setup, though i agree, you guys had a inefficient combustion chamber, the tube should never get that bright. A temp guage on it attached to a speed limiter would allow this to be run for long times. Also, have you ever tried to tap into the turning of the shaft for a generator?

[@Reverseflush]

@SPB282008 Look at the mounting. The part that is heating up the most is also what is holding it down. Metal weakens at high temps. What would stop it should it break off.Answer; any other object. A face, a chest..

[@locke6984]

Great video guys! What calculation did you use to determine the appropriate distance/diameter for the flame tube in the can there? Also what kind of fuel nozzle are you using? Have you considered using air cooling fins on the flame direction tube to keep it from getting so hot? I would like to learn a thing or two from you guys. Again, awesome video!!

[@hoseinqadam]

the combustion of the fuel goes from that container in the vice to the turbine housing and the :pipe that connects then heats up in the process.

[@deividtaz]

cavalo tava vendo-se que ia estourara a turbina pois estava a esquentar muito tem que ter a mistura certa de ar combustivel

[@justinbalacuit6507]

needz to have a flametube that has 2x the diameter of the inducer for the diameter of the flametube, and 6x for the length, yours looks like it is too small and the combustion chamber must be at least 1 inch wider than the flametube, it must also have a pattern, and there is also a forum to that, it is because it looks like the exhaust gasses are too hot on the output side. please correct me if i am wrong ;)

[@whisperaircraftnz]

looks pretty sweet even though it is too hot!!!

[@AhwasNasir]

R.i.p turbo t

[@FreePizza007]

At 2:00. I'm givin you all she's got Captain, she's gonna blow!!!

[@michaelgodborn]

pretty sparks!

[@jerrysmith7166]

I'd call that catastrophic failure

[@highvoltagefeathers]

@highvoltagefeathers I know, I just don't think a racing enthusiast would be dumb eanough to think it would still run after the turbine went taffy. :P He was probably cooling it off to save the parts that he could.

[@marmac567]

The flame must stay in combustor and not overheat turbine wheel. Flame retainer tube needed.

[@AnonymoussourceL0L]

IT'S OVER NINE THOUSAAAAAAAAAND!

[@1ukjunglednbraver]

yeh looks great sounds great.

[@jrbento]

do you think about to inject water with the fuel in the combustion chamber (with another injector) to get down the temperature? Taht can down the temperature of flame and increase the pressure with water vapour, and needs less fuel... or not and I'm wrong...

[@Dude-yo5ec]

João Ricardo Bento as a car enthusiast i say that we have the system in race cars it's called "water methanol injection" And it's 50,50 water and methanol and the system injects it to the intake manifold.keeps the engine cooler under high pressure in a race.but what you said is doable. They can inject it before the combustion chamber.

[@Skracken]

Wow you really had that thing running waaay too hot! Redesign the flame holder!

[@albertein20]

Very good boys, nice experience!!!congratulations

[@AhwasNasir]

What Harold said ... Some air are used to cool it down...

[@pompompom9538]

ยอดเยี่นม.... 🍓​🍎​🍒​

[@mightyfinejonboy]

hi,great vid,was it the compressor nut coming loose? shame about the turbine been fried. regards jon

[@gabrielhacecosas]

you could try to inject water into the combustion chamber, it will have to give more power and will keep the engine cool.

[@GHSTENORBOY]

GReddy turbo? Q: if you put a intercooler on the intake of the combustion camber (like a car) wouldn't you get a cooler intake temp and raise the density of of the air making the turbo work better? i know my stuff about cars and all that shit and i know its not a 576hp car but wont it do the same thing? it makes sense tho

[@scuffieduffie]

no nut came loose.. Only the turbine exits from the exaust couse of hot temps

[@JETGRAN]

If you need any advice feel free to get in touch. I did it the hard way with no help or advice and have a nice collection of broken turbo parts !

[@thevinstigator2511]

When I saw the exaust end get WHITE hot, I knew there might be a problem soon.

[@ShaunDobbie]

Well, the question "will it blend?" Has already been answered.

[@Ursalog]

blown turbos ftw, PS an actual jet turbine has the flame coming out of the compressor where the fuel mixes with the air and becomes self sustaining, all you had there was the turbo hot side running off the exhaust like it does in a car and the compressor side just compressing, no actual jet being created.

[@ardrie]

nice job bro, i liked it a lot

[@cmdr_scotty]

lol that was a god engine, until the very spectacular breakage of the turbo.

[@dadoVRC]

@dtiydr maybe... :D it seems a melted turbine, huh... :P

[@grantw.whitwam9948]

That looked cool at the end, wow. Oh, it wasn't supposed to do that, sorry.

[@Vrstrubo]

very nice at 1.25m... to the guy going on the back of it to take the video.... I think he is more nuts !

[@Srprotjs4bpark]

ya it was the compressor nut DAM but we are doing a bigger one now should be up & running soon.

[@HelloKittyFanMan.]

Whow, cool to see a really small get engine work like that! How did you make that?

[@arnomac140]

je pense que la turbine a fondu car la flamme n'etait pas assez contenue dans la chambre à combustion. I think turbine has melted because the flame was not quite contained in the combustion chamber

[@l0l0mgwtgdq]

this would be one hell of a hair dryer lol

[@stuntbikers85]

hard luck dude , but you did great ..

[@stiggelthesk8er]

pretty good hair dryer....

[@FedericoLucchi]

Nice build. I suppose it would need cooling around the housing for a longer use. How much thrust does it put out?

[@alexholl5718]

"Fuckin nuts. The nut came loose"

[@rudeboyzero]

You don't need cool air "blowing over the combustion chamber". The combustor needs to be built in such a way that the flame doesn't actually touch the combustor walls. Since you only need about 25% of the air for combustion, the remaining 75% should be used to cool things...internally. In this case, the fuel is obviously burning behind the combustor...resulting in a catastrophic failure...

[@jdbmyers]

I'm not sure what's more "fucking nuts": the moment at 2" or the entire video.

[@UKMXS]

How do you build this? I dont understand how it works it seems you got gas coming in but how is this igniting and working

[@workshop_from_nothing]

that's nuts

[@JustRockRC]

"that fucking nut, that fucking nut came loose" LOL Thats the best part ???

[@Pitchplus8]

game over ...

[@shahbaztarar9830]

Bravo

[@cgrant26]

You need a better combustion can layout with more bypass air mixing to keep your EGTs down.

[@RHBTurbochargers]

yup

[@jerrysmith7166]

cgrant26 lol a bigger and better one

[@gvaly699]

He need 2 brain cells , only one is not enough !

[@elkvis]

looks like you didn't have enough cooling air bypassing the combustion chamber. the combustion flames should never come in contact with your turbine wheel.

[@masuki83]

Nice

[@Yo_Gurtie]

It looks to me as if the shaft broke or the turbine wheel somehow broke off and hit the side walls of the housing.

[@paisa1692]

Is a turbocharger + combustion chamber is = turbine engine

[@TheYouwillsuffer]

that cant be good. good vid

[@crossbj]

Good one Jamie

[@dadoVRC]

@dtiydr Oh yes! The same thing you can see on damaged turbofans on the commercial plane.

[@fastestludeever]

bahhh that exhaust turbine is TOAST!

[@CRC2209]

The combustion chamber is too small, so the exhaust side of the turbo got a very hot flame instead of gases. Next time try to change the combustor design. BtW: it is very dangerous when loosen parts fly out of the turbine housing, there so fast that they could give you a headshot.

[@kgosimookodithemechanicale2988]

Like how did you make the engine accelerate and decelerate

[@PoweredByAus]

yes that nut (impellor blades) did come loose (melt)

[@F35JSF1]

were have i heard that before ???

[@molnarjanos92]

Camera man...you didn't have to shave once again in the life if it exploded when you went into the airflow. HAHAHAHAHA

[@diegop8706]

What is the turbine and compresor casing A/R ratio? Can you give me these data?

[@klayderman12]

omg, that is awesome.. be careful.

[@RedlightExpressMovie]

compressed air is getting hot

[@nyecegarage7173]

might wanna cool her down buddy

[@highvoltagefeathers]

@combomaster99 he was cooling it off, quit trolling.

[@ardrie]

forget the rest,, its still one of the best vids, ok. but aaaahhhh what nut are you talking about?

[@ARBITOR44Chris]

soming comes off the exhust tube at 1.50

[@MrHyper728]

dam that looks hot but loving it :)

[@jim671671]

hahaha ahhh shit I love this great country of ours!!!!!!

[@briandavis414]

Holy shit folks... I've been working on this for months... this is the FUCKING REASON you separate the two turbines on a turbo, on a regular gasoline engine!! . You wouldn't need a stupid freaking ineer-boober-colter if you just simply separated the two FUCKING TURBINES... Every production vehicle with a turbo in it, is already fucking up as soon as you drive it off the lot. All the complication, and mishandling and abuse with sacred knowledge has been used to over-complicate EVERY-ONES lives!! . I still haven't found ONE SINGLE video, where someone separated the two turbines, and eliminated the innerboobercolter.... that engine dominates the streets!! . You aint burning me coppers/dad!!

[@bait28]

+Brian Davis are you high as fuck?

[@yz250ftony]

that was pretty cool. then THAT happened. like the grand finale.

[@brettmoore3194]

I use,one of,those,to heat my coffee up

[@abdullatif6m235]

maked like that but cant start

[@عليالغازي-ل4ح]

I think that the fan has become a hot body parts due to high temperatures

[@theroguescientist3692]

Incorrect flame tube design or incorrect fuel injector placement caused it to get to hot or unbalanced compressor wheel that caused a harmonic vibration that vibrated the nut loose

[@QwikDzl]

thats hot

[@jhyland87]

When these jets run for a decent period of time and end up turning red and white hot, is there any danger of some kind of catastrophic failure? I may be wrong, but Im under the impression that when metal is red/white hot (EG: @ the 2:00 mark), thats when its at its most malleable and weekend state; thus, the combustion chamber could potentially fail. Im I completely wrong?

[@roguepathfinder2477]

justin hyland in actual jet engines the turbine blades are made of a slightly more heat resistant alloy of nickel and (usually) are liquid cooled so the engine doesn’t experience what you see in the video. On top of that the temperature of the turbine is very strictly monitored and the part that you see glowing red or white hot is the afterburner. The afterburner just mixes unburnt air with more fuel in order to give some extra boost, it happens after the turbine so it does not heat the turbine. Hope this helps

[@mickjdee]

How come it doesnt melt? and why does it get soo hot?

[@dtiydr]

I´ll could be wrong but i think something really bad happened at 2:00.
