turbojet engine
Now everyone knows EXACTLY why I started this thread:
http://www.energeticforum.com/renewa...bines-diy.html
It is about the easiest engine to run on water - WAY fewer variables
than an ICE. This is probably the best online group dedicated to making
small turbojet engines using a regular turbocharger from a gas or diesel
engine as the main turbine assembly:
DIYGasTurbines : Home-built gas turbine jet engines
You can see high quality and low quality builds. There are low quality
builds using plumbing pipes, etc... DON'T DO THAT.
Make them nice and accurate as you can. IF you don't have a full machine
shop and IF you want to really do it right, it will either cost you a LOT
of money and/or a LOT of time doing it bit by bit. I would recommend
getting at least a lathe and mill. Or perhaps some members that are
master machinists can work something out to do the machining for this
kind of project at an experimenters price.
I have a 9x19 lathe but I'd recommend getting at least a 12x24 or bigger
at MINIMUM. About $2750 delivered.
G4002 12" x 24" Gear-Head, Cam Lock Spindle, Gap Bed Lathe
My mill is pretty good but wish I could raise the bit a few more inches.
I'd get this: G0484 9" x 32" Gear-Head Mill / Drill with Stand at minimum. About $2300 delivered.
Don't let the $ be an issue or any kind of barrier. If you don't have the funds to get your
own equipment, just know that you can find a way to make one - it is possible to do one on
the cheap.
Anyway, go check out youtube:
YouTube - turbojet engine
You can see all the homemade ones made from regular turbochargers.
If you want to post about the turbojet engine stuff, please use the
turbojet thread instead of this water splitting thread:
http://www.energeticforum.com/renewa...bines-diy.html
If you're new to it, just get your head wrapped around the mechanics
of it. It is VERY simple. But is a pain to build if you don't have all the
right tools in order to do it justice in any short amount of time.
Anyway, check out all that stuff and let the wheels start turning.
