J.C.MacSwell Posted July 30, 2005 Posted July 30, 2005 right now i am having trouble building and placing my combustoin chameber for my engine , got any ideas or diagrams? Try it a little to the left.
insane_alien Posted August 8, 2005 Posted August 8, 2005 round the four dimensional corner of your discombobulator next to the deboobifier.
sunofawrx Posted August 21, 2005 Posted August 21, 2005 dude u gotta watch mythbusters (ch.48 discovery channel) a combustion chamber i might have an idea 4. i wud suggest sum what thick aluminum alloy (light but strong) with like six air brush nozles pointing inward and have a spark plug (dont worry ull only hve ta spark it once) because if u pressurize the fuel tank the constant flowing fuel will keep the flame alive)
sunofawrx Posted August 21, 2005 Posted August 21, 2005 know as a chassi is concerened i wud seriously sugjest somthing long wide and stable. a jet engine can be really unstable at times so make sure its STRAIGHT or else ure gonna be in some serious touble. and fabricate ureframe 4 best results

insane_alien Posted August 22, 2005 Posted August 22, 2005 also the blades could fly apart if you don't get them equal in weight.
vrus Posted August 29, 2005 Posted August 29, 2005 You should put down your aim. What exactly do you wanna do with it ? Turbojets & Turbofans are complex. You must have a fan to suck in the air, a compressor, a turboshaft connected to another fan to keep the main fan spinning, and a nozzle. IF you want more power and are ready to compromise fuel, add an extra length of tubing to the end of thenozzle and include in it some arrangement to inject fuel. This would be your afterburner. Once you start the engine, the airflow will be constant, and the air/fuel mixture will ignite automatically. However, a much easier alternative, would be a pulsejet. A jet engine similar to a 4-stroke internal combustion engine. This is much simpler. A long narrow tube (length and dimensions depend on how much thrust you want) with a reed valve. No moving parts and very simple. Send me a PM if you wanna know more. That is if you haven't started your Turbojet.
Halash Posted October 30, 2005 Posted October 30, 2005 i'm making a jet right now and i am am just using galvinized steel. you can drill through it and the pieces fit together like a dream. i saw some guy make on one out of those insulated coffee mugs.
flyboy Posted October 30, 2005 Author Posted October 30, 2005 cool and vrus, i would make a pulsejet if i didnt have to make and replace the reed valve every time i ran the engine
