flyboy Posted June 14, 2005 Share Posted June 14, 2005 can any1 get me a website or send me some shematics for a turbojet? andrewweber@xwires.net Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
calbiterol Posted June 14, 2005 Share Posted June 14, 2005 Why would you want them? Making a true turbojet requires incredibly complex engineering and manufacturing, and amateur ones can be extremely dangerous. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
flyboy Posted June 14, 2005 Author Share Posted June 14, 2005 actualyy turbo jets are not that complex to make i hav an idea about how to make one out of a turbocharger but i still need som schematcs,and i need one for a model airplane Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Edward Posted June 14, 2005 Share Posted June 14, 2005 actualyy turbo jets are not that complex to make If you know that then shurly you have a pretty good idea of how to make one. oh and this is the second site you get when you google "homemade turbojets" http://pfranc.com/projects/turbine/top.htm it appears to be a summary of diffetent sites with info on homemade turbine engines among them are a few involving the use of turbo chargers.

calbiterol Posted June 14, 2005 Share Posted June 14, 2005 In my defense, I would say something like this or this would be rather complex and difficult to build. And I don't think that building one out of a turbocharger qualifies as making one from scratch, which is how your question was phrased. Almost any schematic you find is going to be that kind.

H2SO4 Posted June 14, 2005 Share Posted June 14, 2005 if your making one for a model airplane, your probaly gonna have to make a pulse jet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
calbiterol Posted June 15, 2005 Share Posted June 15, 2005 I assumed he meant full-size. If you're talking about model airplane-size, flyboy, then it isn't quite as dangerous, or as complicated, especially if you do a PDE (pulse detonation engine), like H2SO4 was talking about.

flyboy Posted June 16, 2005 Author Share Posted June 16, 2005 i would make a pulsejet but they dont last as long as a real gas turbojet pulsejets need lots of maintinance and u hav to replace the valves every time u use it they may be easier to make but they are harder to start etc... i just need schematics or my dad wont let me make one Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

calbiterol Posted June 17, 2005 Share Posted June 17, 2005 So do you want one for a model or full-size? And, either way, going for a normal jet engine is a heck of a lot less complicated than either a PDE or a turbojet. And as far as I know, PDE's aren't that bad.

flyboy Posted June 17, 2005 Author Share Posted June 17, 2005 a real working jet engine that can fit in a model airplane! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
calbiterol Posted June 17, 2005 Share Posted June 17, 2005 So, same concept, model airplane size. Here's a good site: http://www.aardvark.co.nz/pjet/faq.htm It's from the page of a guy that builds (relatively) large jet engines, PDEs, etc., for fun.

flyboy Posted June 17, 2005 Author Share Posted June 17, 2005 no ive been to this guys site i admire his work on pulsejets but he hasnt realy done anything with TURBOJETS. i kno how to make a pulse jet and a PDE Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
calbiterol Posted June 17, 2005 Share Posted June 17, 2005 Pulse jet and PDE are basically the same thing, AFAIK. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
flyboy Posted June 17, 2005 Author Share Posted June 17, 2005 yet they are diffrent Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
flyboy Posted June 17, 2005 Author Share Posted June 17, 2005 i just need some shematics that are FREE all the sites ive been to cost money Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
