@Daimo988 WOW... wow, who gives a crap about t difference between a turbocharger and supercharger, like knowing the difference between a turbocharger and supercharger matters in life. Like, one day an important decision will rest on MY knowing the difference between a god damned turbocharger and supercharger. *rolls eyes*
@SodomGomorrahWaDC Go do some research on the web or go to your local turbo shop and ask them what the Max RPM is for a small turbocharger. Don't confuse the engine RPM with the Turbo RPM.
@rainerfilm isn't the turbo in fact the engine, as you were filming the turbo the entire time and the name of the video is in fact 'home built jet engine'. This leads people to believe you in fact are filming what you claim in your title. Otherwise, this is misleading, so where is the real jet engine? You're hiding something.
@rainerfilm I'm confused now, so the turbo IS the jet engine, but it's a turbo.. even though... oh wait.. crap i forget. OK OK ok ok so it IS a DIY turbine engine..
@cptstubing I will try to explain, this is part 1.
A jet engine has a minimal of 2 turbines, a compressor turbine and a exhaust turbine, the exhaust turbine is designed to drive the compressor turbine, the compressor turbine is designed to pump air.
A turbo charger also has 2 turbines,the exhaust turbine is also designed to drive the compressor turbine and the compressor turbine is also designed to pump air. But a Turbo was designed to be used on a car, not as a jet engine. Go to part 2.
basically what I did was I removed the huge ass 4 stroke combustion engine from the turbocharger and I replaced the engine with a small combustion chamber (Not another engine), the last thing missing from a turbocharger to turn it into a jet engine. That is why this turbo is a DIY jet engine.
@cptstubing Two common types of jet engine are TURBOjet, and TURBOfan. Look them up online - despite the layout not being in a straight line as per an aircraft engine, the principle is EXACTLY the same :)
If I had the capability, I'd try and build such a thing to power my ultralight. The aircraft has a MTOW of under 300kg, so a small jet similar to what you've demonstrated could power it.
@rainerfilm I'm not challenging their existance, just curious what the purpose is? I have never before heard of variable turbine stators. Variable stators are important in axial compressors of larger engines like the GE J79, but I have never heard of them being used in the turbine section. Where are they located in the flow? I don't see anything after turbo's turbine. Does this mean they are between the combustor and the turbine?
@Kitling89 They are around the turbine wheel in the turbo casing, they are designed to replace the dump valve in normal turbos. I find that if you use this engine with a pressure regulator on the fuel line, that you can use the vanes to control the ETG and thrust. If you open the vanes thrust and temperature goes up, if you close the vanes, the thrust goes down and the temperature goes down.

dude thats just a turbo from a car that u just use the port that gos to the waste gate and get a air compresser and and tap an die a hole 4 the fule air mix heat up turbo and light but im thinking you will need nitress because of lack of oxigen im 14 and i figurded that out but nice job
so... the text book definition of a jet is an ngine with at least 2 fans, innerconnected so that the rear/exhaust fan when spun by exhaust it spins the intake fan faster compressing even more air, and a combustion chamber where the fuel is added and lit.. right? so is this rig got a connecting rod thats? dog legged? instead of straight shot? and how do they spin up jets to get compression before they light them, kinda like helo turbine ya know? help? anyone?
They use APU's to start the engines, An APU is a small jet engine that generates the power for the instruments, air conditioning and it is used to start the engine. The APU blows air directly into the C-chamber which spools it up.
@rainerfilm how do they start up that smaller jet engine? an even smaller one in side that??? and what powers that even smaller one? elves and pixie dust?
please email me specifically how to build this jet turbine engines,i always do want to build one of those but didnt made it..my email is spowsen@yahoo.com,thank u very much..
@kaka47665 I don't know the power output, I use a pressure (not flow) regulator on the fuel line and I also have variable vanes in the exhaust housing.
@Narutz09 Ha! you will be so surprised to know the answer, it is 2 stainless steel cups with their bottoms cut out. they simply slide into each other, you can push them in if it is not running. send me your email and I will send you a photo.
@TheFutureIsTomorrow No, it is only efficient at high speed with low air resistance, like an airliner. this one is very small, it only produces 6 kg thrust more or less. But that is not the point of the project. for a car you need something much bigger and lighter.
@rainerfilm Yeah I know it's just for the fun of making it. But it would be cool to make a few and then build one with a practical use. Like a small car or something crazy like that =P well I'll do my research when the time is right. Thanks for the video!
What "version" of a jet engine is this called? I have some giant turbo's here, including Precision, Garret, and more. I have a Model jet engine, built from the ground up, and it's a 6 chamber set.
@rainerfilm 6 separate combustion chambers. Correct. It's not working to well. I like the turbo idea. Kinda started messing around with it. See what happens.
yeah i dont think mine will hit more than 90,000 or so cos of the size of it but i'm more looking for trust from volume so we'll see how it goes, i want about 150lbs of trust out of it so it will push a go-kart and i'm adding an after burner, the ceramic coating of everything is a bit expensive though.
i've seen turbo's go beyond 120,000 rpm, it's not good for them to do so but it is possible, 171,000rpm yeah i guess but not for long periods of time, as for several hundred pounds of boost, doubt it maybe 50-60lbs which turbo's are capable of so yeah i'm not betting on this one, nice turbine man, mine's only half built, but when it's running i'll put it on here, it's a much bigger turbo, off a 16 cylinder diesel, mining generator engine.
One could if you put it on a jet turbine like this with a 1:1 ratio, but what would be the point in that? A roots type supercharger is of course propelled through a belt so that wouldn't work. A centrifugal charger, essentially a big turbo, could do it, but then what kind of driving engine are we talking about here? For a supercharger to spin that fast, it would have to be mated to a jet turbine engine, and there is no reason at all for a jet to have a separate compressor.
Actually, most turbos have more than one moving part if you count the bearing assembly. And I wasn't referring strictly to roots superchargers. Centrifugal superchargers are nearly identical in operation to turbos, and would be the only kind capable of anything close to 171,000 rpm's as I had pointed out earlier.
99% use oil bearings? Do you have stats to verify that? I highly doubt that. And I would also count waste gates among the moving parts, especially turbos with internal gates. Opinion doesn't cut it, you're thinking of roots blowers most commonly seen on cars. Study up on centrifugal superchargers, you'll see they are mechanically VERY similar to turbos.
the dude said he wants to use it as for a practical commuter bicycle. jets are loud as hell and guzzle fuel, making it not practical for a commuter. sure, you could put it on a bike and make it go, but that would be just for fun not to make a commuter bike. think about it logically instead of saying something stupid next time. also learn something about jet turbine engines and their applications. no everyday commuter vehicle will have a jet, unless you commute in a plane
considering this is my topic of study, dont think so (aerospace engineering). the creator of the engine and poster of the video said himself "Ha! It is very practical to make lots of noise and waste lots of fuel." like 3 posts above. seriously man you havent even made a valid argument all you can say is GTFO and such.
I see, where is the Garrett from? I think the ford powerstroke uses a Garrett variable vane, not sure. My Isuzu duramax diesel uses a variable vane turbo, it makes sweet music.
and im not stupid, turbos CAN reach 100k rpms and motorcycles (because the turbos are smaller) can reach 200k rpm.. jets can reach upwards of 500k rpms depending on the altitude.
you dont want to have a turbo go to 170k rpm and sustain it for long.
i highly doubt that that goes to 171,000 rpm, it is not a "jet turbine" the fins are not made to sustain those speeds. turbos can get to around 70k rpm, and that is pushing it, jet engines can go up to speeds of 170k rpm, because they have ceramic blades and the blades do not expand from the heat and offset the balance, which will cause catastrophic failure. this thing WILL NOT go 171k rpm.
RPM is not power, rpm is just a speed. The smaller it is the faster it goes. go to your local turbo expert and ask him what speed these things can go.
Anyone else sick of seeing "will it blend" on these videos? :/

hello can i order a couple of these for my bicycle, the idea is to build a practical everyday commuter
danthemanzizzle 2 years ago 14
Ha! It is very practical to make lots of noise and waste lots of fuel.

practical commuter? its a jet engine dumbass

the dude said he wants to use it as for a practical commuter bicycle. jets are loud as hell and guzzle fuel, making it not practical for a commuter. sure, you could put it on a bike and make it go, but that would be just for fun not to make a commuter bike. think about it logically instead of saying something stupid next time. also learn something about jet turbine engines and their applications. no everyday commuter vehicle will have a jet, unless you commute in a plane

This has been flagged as spam show
considering this is my topic of study, dont think so (aerospace engineering). the creator of the engine and poster of the video said himself "Ha! It is very practical to make lots of noise and waste lots of fuel." like 3 posts above. seriously man you havent even made a valid argument all you can say is GTFO and such.

best small jet engine are the one used by fusionman on his wings , they give 20 kg of trust and are much more smaller
Ashuiegi 2 years ago
But the blades on that engine is much bigger than on this one, this one is big because it needs a life support system to run, that one does not.

what is it suckin in at 1:22
sidlemar 2 years ago
hot oil vapor.
rainerfilm 2 years ago
whats the point of that? to lubricate?
jvcrules 2 years ago
It burns as a secondary fuel, not really that useful, but it blows all the smoke away. and it look cool.
rainerfilm 2 years ago
oh ok

You mean a turbo charger, Jet engines rarely exceed 15,000 rpm's.
pelagic6 2 years ago
well this is a turbo / jet engine conversion. so I guess we are both right.
rainerfilm 2 years ago
I see, where is the Garrett from? I think the ford powerstroke uses a Garrett variable vane, not sure. My Isuzu duramax diesel uses a variable vane turbo, it makes sweet music.
pelagic6 2 years ago
Mercedes turbo diesel.

I should say low and high bypass turbo fans.
pelagic6 2 years ago
I'm not too sure on that one. Just ran a small jet engine for a UAV at 82,000RPM yesterday.
skatastrophic 2 years ago
skatastrophic, what kind of Jet engine? I should be more specific and say the large low and high bypass turbofan engines.
pelagic6 2 years ago
and im not stupid, turbos CAN reach 100k rpms and motorcycles (because the turbos are smaller) can reach 200k rpm.. jets can reach upwards of 500k rpms depending on the altitude.
you dont want to have a turbo go to 170k rpm and sustain it for long.
ntwdude 2 years ago
i highly doubt that that goes to 171,000 rpm, it is not a "jet turbine" the fins are not made to sustain those speeds. turbos can get to around 70k rpm, and that is pushing it, jet engines can go up to speeds of 170k rpm, because they have ceramic blades and the blades do not expand from the heat and offset the balance, which will cause catastrophic failure. this thing WILL NOT go 171k rpm.
ntwdude 2 years ago
hahaha! Ceramic!

Turbo charger is way faster than a jet engine because it is so dam small, please replay the video, I left a new message for you.
rainerfilm 2 years ago
how come is not a turbo charger but it has stamped in it the name garret which is one of the companies who made turbo chargers for engines?
elchicoboy 2 years ago
Because it is a turbocharger that was converted into a jet engine, it is both.
rainerfilm 2 years ago
dont tell me that thing hits 171,000 rpms... how the fuck a little thing like that do so much power???
Tylerunderfire 2 years ago
RPM is not power, rpm is just a speed. The smaller it is the faster it goes. go to your local turbo expert and ask him what speed these things can go.

Looks like the turbo from a 6.0 litre Ford Powerstroke Diesel , is that correct ? Looks very familiar ... nice sound ! The sound of spool is sweet
PD2GETU 2 years ago
That is from a Mercedes Benz turbo diesel.

did you make this with a vacume cleaner?
alistaro 2 years ago
Only the starter.
rainerfilm 2 years ago
how fast would that go
cabeg10 2 years ago
Not that fast, this engine is much smaller than what it looks like, this is equivalent to a small RC jet engine.
rainerfilm 2 years ago
and I do know for a fact that garret makes turbo chargers.
AdolphObama 2 years ago
you rigged a turbo charger onto a generator and some kickass vacuum. still cool though
AdolphObama 2 years ago
I have no idea what you are saying? are you saying this is a generator with a turbo?

yea, thats what it is.
