Bigger turbo with sharper, harder teeth?

[@khaledAlattab]

You need to have two-stage combustion (i.e. gasifier-combustor) to avoid throwing hot char into the turbo that will damage it in minutes. Even if you control the turbine speed by controlling air flow, you will end up with badly corroded turbine wheel in the first run. See my 2008 project (in my KZbin channel) with downdraft gasifier along with cyclone gas cleaning and cyclone combustor. I used smaller turbo (TD05) and generated 1 kw electricity using second stage (holset) turbo

[@astronichols1900]

I feel like the gasifier ruins the simplicity. There has to be a way to filter or inertialy separate the char. Either cyclone separator or a coaxial tube with the compressor outlet outside the turbine return. Then maybe cooling air could be circulated back as well, cause imma guess heat was a problem. I just would try everything I could before trying to do a gasifier.

[@astronichols1900]

I mean to be fair gasifier is the right way to do it. I just can't possibly imagine getting that to work without tears. many tears.

[@khaledAlattab]

@@astronichols1900 Adding a series of vertical baffles (first coming from top, second coming from bottom, third from top, etc.) will eliminate large char. Then, can have one bypass tube at the compressor outlet directly connecting the compressor to the turbine (preferably passing through the main shell to heat air) while an air valve can be added to the main air supply at the combustor inlet to control turbine speed and temperature. Closing the valve partially will reduce air to the combustor forcing air through the bypass. Turbine inlet temperature should be always below 900 degree C.

[@renegadeoflife87]

I would use 2 combustion chambers, piped like a modern high-bypass jet engine. Only a small amount of the boost air goes into the fuel chamber to keep the fire hot. The rest of it goes to a second chamber, where the fuel-rich gases are gradually mixed with the remaining air over a baffle so that they are cleanly consumed before being diluted to a lean mixture that will avoid overheating the turbo. This second pipe could quite easily double as a cyclone separator to throw out any large debris back into the 1st chamber. Also, am I seeing this correctly that the oil overflow from the turbo was piped back into the combustion chamber? You've basically guaranteed a fuel-rich runaway doing that. The excess oil should go to a cooler and filter, then get reused.

[@Fit4C]

[@CakeslapperJoe]

[@jondepinet]

the complete lack of fuel and boost control means that these things will just continue to spool as long as they have fuel. meaning i cant see them not exploding. if you had a way to shut off air remotely you would be able to throttle it to a sustainable level. otherwise the turbo is just going to keep spooling up until you exceed the tourque limits of the shaft. which is what it looks like happened here. the power being transmitted from the exhaust wheel to the compressor wheel snapped the shaft. if it has some kind of boost controler, you could have yourself a wood fired gas turbine.

[@EVLS10]

[@cbrunnem6102]

turbos do not produce a lot of torque. that turbo makes at Max 50 to 100lb-ft of torque. no where near enough to break the shaft. they blew this turbo because they are hilljack morons who over speed it till it exploded the turbine wheel. they likely over temped it too.

I wonder what would happen with a water injection system upstream of the exhaust turbine? Spay in enough water too keep the EGT around 500-600C. Not only will that avoid slagging the turbo but it would actually give *more* volume to power things with. The downside is that it would require a long enough manifold to fully vaporize the water or risk eroding things.

[@Patrick-zr8tv]

@@benjaminshropshire2900 I reckon the water would either shut it down or blow it up immediately depending on if the exhaust is hot enough to vaporise all of it. If it is hot enough it'll be too much steam or not enough cooling. Plus they'd need a high pressure pump and some way to make sure the injection nozzle doesnt get blocked or melt on startup.

[@benjaminshropshire2900]

@@Patrick-zr8tv I suspect the pressure needed wouldn't be that high: the bucket doesn't look like it would hold more than a few hundred psi anyway. Mostly it will depend on the nozzle choice. Even then a pressure washer would be more than enough. As for how much water to pump in; I was thinking of some kind of closed loop control using a temperature sensor to regulate the EGT. And I don't think too much water shutting down the fire would be a risk as long as the injectors are after the fire box.

Also try and figure out if it's possible to do something interesting with the bleed air on the compressor side, maybe spin another turbine connected to a small generator or something goofy like that.

Fantastic, just needs a waste gate! From the looks of it the waste oil goes in to the burner? Great idea, I wonder if it could be self sustaining just on the oil... I reckon over pressure along with a piece of 'fuel' being ingested is what blew the turbo.

[@renegadeoflife87]

Very self-sustaining. That's the basis of what happens when a diesel engine goes into runaway, an oil seal failure allows the intake spool to atomize the oil and the diesel engine happily consumes it as fast as it can go. A diesel in runaway will continue to accelerate until it blows apart, or all of the fuel is gone. The only way to stop this is to smother it, block the air inlet.

[@NavySturmGewehr]

This is a project I've wanted to embark on for a while actually. Do you have anything covering your combustion chamber design? Controlling gas velocity inside the combustion chamber would go a long way to helping prevent so much particulate matter going through the turbine. Fuel air mixture is probably not ideal either. The next progression, that I really want to try is a twin turbo system that runs off a gasifier. Both turbos fed by the same exhaust, but one compressor is drawing wood gas, the other fresh air and that is combined in the combustion chamber.

[@raelik777]

That's a pretty good idea actually. You'd almost certainly need the bigger turbo drawing the wood gas (due to the restriction of the gasifier and all the fuel you'd need to draw through), and then a smaller one to drive the combustion chamber.

[@NavySturmGewehr]

@@raelik777 I've done a fair amount of the math and by the time you count all the restriction of the gasifier, you can make up for it with filtration/restriction on the clean air side. Woodgas needs to be somewhere around 1:1 afr, so two identically sized turbos should be perfect, then balance the turbo output with throttle plates on the inlet side. I have been eying up the turbos off the nissan twin turbo 300zx. Little tiny things that they are, would be perfect for a test rig. Just can't afford to build a gasifier and turbine setup.

Well there’s no active control, and it’s a positive feedback loop, so it’s either damped so much that it can’t self sustain (below critical rpm) or it is running away unless som other damping comes into effect to limit rpm increase

[@driftertank]

Possible modifications for future iterations: Wastegated turbo (ball bearing?) - might act to self-regulate system pressure and therefore shaft speed Dump valve on the compressor pipe - let you use chamber pressure rather than compressed air directly to the compressor to spool up, while free-wheeling the turbo, then once it has some speed, route discharge air into the combustion chamber and shut off starting air. Double-wall and/or stiffening ribs on the access door. Or use a plug-type door of the kind used for service doors on liquid tanks, mounted on the side so it isn't directly exposed to the heat of the fire as when mounted above. Just spitballin...

[@treybarnes7932]

As far as I know with turbos, the blades are threaded on in a way that they get tighter when they spin. So if it were to spontaneously seize the turbo shaft at high rpm both blades on the turbo shaft can excitedly leap off the turbo shaft.

[@dodgydingygames]

This definitely needs a way to control boost pressure, seems like since all the exhaust has to go through the turbo it can go in a cycle of more air in causes more combustion causes more exhaust causes more air in and keep speeding up until it explodes. Normally the fuel supply is controlled to control the power level but here the air supply could be controlled instead with a restrictor on the inlet or a wastegate/bypass on the exhaust so it doesn't all go through the turbo

They blow fresh compressed air in,fanning the fuel, until hot exhaust gas pressure is enough to turn turbo, becoming self sustaining. The outside air is coming in where he is blowing the compressed air. (Front of turbo)

[@stefanmargraf7878]

I think, the pressure the turbo does is higher compared to the pressure of the exhaust gas from the drum (but not the amount). Thats makes the turbo put air into the chamber while exhaust gas is driving the turbo at the same time. Therefore it seems like a perpetuum mobile but its not, because it consumes fuel.

That explosion sounded so sick. I wish my turbo let off with that sound 🤣

Turbo fire bucket?? What is it and what is it supposed to do?

[@jordanbishop8471]

it is to spool turbos to death for our entertainment hahaha

@@jordanbishop8471 Riiiight. Fair enough. Seems like an expensive way to have fun though.

@Bushman......you've heard of a "Runaway Diesel" in trucks or locomotives. This is a "Runaway BBQ Grill"....and everything you cook on it....is well done. :)

[@a0cdhd]

@@jlew5545 Well Mr. Lew.... Once again... Unusual. But then again , Rolls Royce fires frozen chooks into the intake manifolds of jet turbines running flat out to see what happens so I suppose your rather detonative practice of disintegrating truck turbo chargers in your rather imaginative manner is not quite as unusual as I first thought. But, if I might add a word or two of advice, it may serve to add a perforated cooling chamber directly attached to the underside of the BBQ plate through which you might pump compressed air into the fire drum in a similar manner to that used in jet engine afterburners. Might stop the BBQ plate from becoming so deformed. And as an additional thought, although I am not a workplace and stupidity nazi (because I firmly believe in the order of natural selection), you might consider constraining the detonative force of your exploding turbo chargers with a reasonably heavy mesh cage to avoid possible damage or destruction to expensive cameras. Best of luck with it.

[@robertspringer4019]

Who am I to judge. But that's pretty Dumb in my opinion. But if you having fun, carry on.

[@cobra02411]

You made a, I assume, trash fired jet engine... A waste gate could be added to control pressure and maybe a blow-off valve on the inlet could be used to throttle. Maybe even a ball valve to regulate pressure / air into the burn chamber. I wonder what the turbine inlet temps were. Too hot there can cause a failure. I would put a probe just below the turbo inlet in the up pipe. Regulating air in could help there. Also, keep on it when air starting it. With real jet engines they start with an air or electric start, then you add fuel while still cranking to get the speed up to where it can run on it's own. If you have a dead battery or low air pressure and that drags on it can cause a hot start condition and can damage the turbine. For the door, maybe add something like 38x38x4mm angle welded to reinforce the door. Love the build!

[@rearspeaker6364]

with all this heat, I want a 10mm thick door.

"I reckon we just get a bigger turbo and we should be right" - loved that quote

[@electrake2063]

Great eye protection. After all, what could go wrong? You only have something making boot pressure, and spinning at 100,000 rpm. MYE EYES ARE IMPERVIOUS TO FLYING METAL PIECES! You keep telling yourself that. I’m glad to see you had your safety squints on, and I’m sure your arm was plenty long to get you out of the danger zone. That extra 1/2” of arm stretch at the end really gets u into the safety zone.

[@andreschondelmaier4834]

What an amazing project , Not sure what it's good for but off the scale in ultimate coolness. Will be subscribing and watching the follow ups . A thought for a similar project 🤔 neodymium magnets mounted into intake fan and some coils on back of housing for power generation.

That was insane, great work boys

[@haydenlandry3837]

Maybe you guys could fabricate a mesh screen to catch any large objects from impacting the turbine? Anyways, awesome video. That was great.

[@3dmachines2h19]

sweet vid when i seen the black smoke and could hear the turbo take off i knew that its gonna blow or run out of gas

[@MrTurboturbine]

This is absolutely incredible.

There might be easier ways to grill steaks, but hey, I’m down for whatever.

What in cousin f'ing tarnation?? 🤣 that was beautiful, well done! Please don't blow yourself up building V2 though... and you may consider some ties going to the center of the flat door.

Now the mad scientist and myself have to rip apart the block, and replace the piston rings you fried. 🤣

Ok, I'm halfway through and I'm thinking "Dude, clamp that line down and step tf back". Standing next to it is nerve-wracking. So grateful that he did just that.

Now that looks like a turbocharged BBQ smoker. Ok let's lite the grill. I ❤️ it!👍💙💛
