@@nextlevelup6810 it isn’t really though, it doesn’t have a compressor stage, it’s just feeding fuel and air through a turbine. That doesn’t constitute a turbojet.
@@ivorys_ivyWell the turbo was also used in planes in WW2, and they both use a similar concept, just shaped a little differently where the turbocharger takes in exhaust gas on the side, whereas a turbojet takes normal atmospheric gasses in from the front, they're both turbine driven.
@Living The Error yeah but no, in this video it's not a turbofan. Turbofans engines got a hot airflow and a cold airflow, with a fan at the entrance of the engine, accelerating cold air in the engine, there are multiple stages on a plane engine, I'm an aeronautic mechanic, it's literally my job, and in this video, it's a car turbo modified to burn fuel. (propane, butane, or even wood like some of those "Turbo Barrels" videos that u can find on RU-vid). So in those case, it's a modified car turbocompressor, it's a 1 stage, 1 flow (hot) "engine". And I won't even call it an engine because it's juste a car turbo with a fuel intake added to it...
@Living The Error I totally agree with that, but the body of this engine is an old car turbo, modified to burn fuel. So I wouldn't really call that a jet engine at all, it's a modified car turbo, it's like modifying a chainsaw engine to fit it on a bicycle, you can't call the final a result "a motorcycle" it's a sort of modified bicycle with a chainsaw engine adapted on the rear wheel" same goes here, yes it works like a jet engine etc, but the base of this "engine" is an old car turbo.
What??? What on earth are you talking about? The only output that thing has is purely optical! Yeah, it looks "cool" and that's all it does, next to heating up the room before it breaks! You obviously don't have the slightest idea how a turbo charger, is actually working! Let me assure you, that ain't no yet engine either!
This is why is so important. To have a constant even flow of clean quality synthetic oil. Going into the turbo's bearing inlet. It's a critical area. The engine's life itself depends on this adequate constant flow of oil. To keep the turbo cool enough👍. If the turbo is not receiving this constant flow of oil. The engine will soon be ruined.
yes I understand that @@CelestialDrifts , In fact I'm fairly confident in my knowledge of the car scene :). I interpreted the "12 year old Toyota experts" as "supra kids", mostly because those are usually one of the first cars that kids can recognize and begin to like. And the Toyota Supra that they like is probably turboed, like most are (mk4's at least). anyhow, the guy i responded to was wondering what Toyota had to do with the video, and so I was sharing my thoughts. I hope this helps.
People have no idea how much ingenuity goes into making us go faster by just stepping on the gas. Shout out to all the engineers who built everyday items we take for granted!
You wouldn't have plastic on that side. The side with the fire is the exhaust side, the other side with the silicone hose is your fresh air. Please learn before you speak.
@@lincolnmechoh that's riiiiiight, I ALWAYS forget the V-band goes on the intake side 🥴. Hate to break it to you, but you don't know Jack about shit. Sit down.
That is the combustor. Mixes incoming air with propane gas for example. it is a blowtorch that produces hot gas to spin the impeller that feeds the combustor with air. Lubrication is critical considering the turbine spins at up to 80,000 rpm. I see no evidence of ANY lubrication system from this angle.
I have a rather large swietzer turbo that I've been been wanting to do exactly that with it. I had visions of building a ultralight aircraft and my own turbo prop engine with it. Other uses could be a waste oil furnace. A device to drive neighbors crazy with noise.and possibly with gear reduction,a stationary power source to run just about anything.
من چنین ایده ای دارم اما نمی دانم توربین توربو تحمل دمای خیلی بالا را داشته باشد چون برای تولید توان کافی حرارت بالایی لازم است اگر توربین تحمل دمای بالاتر از 650 درجه سانتیگراد را داشته باشد ایده ی خوبی برای ساختن یک موتور جت توربوپراب یا توربوشفت است
as if the turbine wasn’t red hot it would’ve blew anyway lol it probably had a blown out seal and was leaking oil that’s probably why it’s got no oil to it and why he’s doing what he’s doing
@Ashton kinnett under heavy loads and a lot of boost, a turbine can generally get a lot hotter than what's shown here in this video. Ever seen a turbine housing glowing a bright pink/orange? They can take the abuse, but with a lack of lubrication (or overabundance) and proper cooling for the oil to prevent coking etc., any journal/ball bearing turbo will not last very long.
It is the job of the turbocharger to compress more air flowing into the engine's cylinder. When air is compressed the oxygen molecules are packed closer together. This increase in air means that more fuel can be added for the same size naturally aspirated engine.
It has nothing to do with being able to add more fuel. Oxygen is an accelerant, thus when a turbo sucks and compresses more oxygen into the engine it causes the combustion to be far more explosive more violent even with same amount of fuel. In a diesel for example the compression of the oxygen is what egnites the mixure and produces an explosion. When you compress oxygen under high pressures it superheats and ignites on its own without the use of sparkplugs. But in the video the turbo is delivering a superheated jet sream of air thats already ignited. This would destroy your engine. This is why your turbo needs to have a air cooler to cool the air before it enters the engine block, and your turbo should be oiled to maintain it smooth lubrication reducing friction of parts.
@@voltsoftruthBSbuster it has everything to do with adding more fuel. Thats half the point of supercharging (turbos are a form of supercharging, look it up). To increase efficiency at low speeds, and to pack in more air than a n/a engine could by itself at wide open throttle. But this vid is of a turbo-jet engine made from a piston engine turbocharger, making everything you said moot. Fyi, turbo piston engines don't need to be intercooled, but most newer stuff (2000+) is, because cooler air is denser, and therefore has more oxygen per unit of air pumped to then be mixed with more fuel= greater power/better efficiency. For having a name like 'volts of truth bs buster', you sure are full of it.
@@liammartin8773 its not in the original video (yes this guy stole the video) they made a jet engine from a turbo by injecting fuel into it and using an air compressor to push air through it
This is a jet engine made out of a turbocharger. Its kind of a common hobby for some people. An alternate name is a turbo keg, where you use a barrel or some kind of keg as the combustion chamber. These can get very very hot, especially the big ones, and can turn the turbo orange hot.
High performance cart, for when you need to send tools to your buddy on the other side of the shop post-haste! Strap them on or you'll have a bunch of nasty projectiles 💀
car turbos and jets are basically the inverse of each other conceptually. cars rely on the air inside the pipes. jet engines rely what the blades push out. cars u just harness the energey in the pipes, and planes you create a housing to harness the energy coming off the blades.
The flames are produced by the ECU telling the injectors to inject some fuel into the cylinder on the exhaust stroke, this fuel ignites in the hot exhaust pipe and you see “cool” flames. Some people go a step further and weld an injector and a spark plug into the exhaust system to produce even more “impressive” flame
