you have one major design flaw. no compression stage, but balso yur exhaust needs directed thru a vane thats what makes the pressure generated actually spin the whole thing. use a cone i guess to compress and a vane to direct air to the turbine. the turbine blades should react to nthe pressure like in a steam turbine. check one out for ideas. that should help
the biggest problem would be the hand made compressor fans, they look a tad unbalanced, remember jets spool at extreme rpm's any inbalances will destroy it rather promptly,
you would also need a better housing round the combustion chamber,
not to say this wont work but some things would need adressed, good job and good luck with the build
looks like it make a great garbage disposal??? just sayin....study gas turbines see how lame it would be to make it that way... turbines= +/- 750,000 rpm just to get rolling, yer can gunna be lil pile of melted metal on yer bench..... even without a flame holder
HIGH TEMP PARTs ARE REQUIRED. or something MIGHT BREAK AND YOU DON"T WANT THAT. and i would not use JB WELD on a just engine. it won't hold. the HIGH TEMP. get a WELDER. nice video.
i actually do have an idea that i know would work... too bad i arrive months too late and you've given up. as for "dangerous" well... what isn't dangerous that's any fun?! good luck with your next project...
Nice:) Does it work at all? What are the diameters of compressor wheel, turbine? How did you fix the shaft ? How did you calculated the distance between intake wheel and turbine? How many paddles each of those have? What are the angles of each? In short, do you have a plans of your device ? :)
You can use a couple of stainless steel hose clamps to keep your can closed, if you have to join a couple of clamps together to do this you can, check out how I used them for my rocket stove heater I built, I put a few vids up.
Well unfortunately you quit this project, it looks good to me. You said it was unstable, but you cant expact from a soupcan it will be stable after being cut and heated ETC. anyway i'm trying to make one on my own but i got another problem, But still, i give it a try, because i dont give a fuck if it explodes :P Those things warn you always 2 times, first warning, some shattered pieces come out, second warning, you hear a sound like things are shattering inside :P then its time to run :P
@TheShadowbd "Shattered pieces"?! A.K.A Shrapnel -> means skip directly to the running part :-P Don't let down. And would you mind posting your progress somewhere? :) I'd love to follow it. As I told the OP, am trying to make one too, but I have no idea what am doing XD
@nic12344 you are exactly correct. Needs more compressor pressure than a single stage axial compressor he needs to throw that project in the trash there are so so many things that will make that never work.
This cant work.. You need a air pressure / speed differential between the intake, the compressor and the combustion chamber / turbine. You will need to make a venturi tube. The housing should have a large diameter at the intake and exhaust and a smaller diameter in the center (combustion chamber). Also your turbine should be tight fit to the housing so that air will have to push the blades to go out. A perforated U form cylinder for the combustion chamber will also be better for air flow, air/g
I like both your ideas - You should put another can over it with the slit on the other side, and use three big hose clamps, it will be stronger than the original can.
snip a section out of another can so the ripples match and silver solder it that might be worth a try solder is much stronger than you might think hope that helps?
I don't know what kind of access you have to machining tools but the compressor and turbine need to be properly weighted for the RPM range you can hit. Also stators and nozzles wouldn't hurt either to direct the airflow properly through your engine. Good effort though would like to see it work.
Ummmm what the hell is this grade school science project crap.. Get som real machines that can cut and spin, like a lathe... A sawn open soup can?? Come on.....
alot of people like to talk out there ass lol. but open your eyes and read. i said i quit building this engine months ago. everything was just too unbalenced and propper combustion is impossible with this set up. maybe one day ill build one that will work but idk its just way fucking dangerious but hey i like to live on the edge so fuck you ;)
@superfunnyman123 Dude, I think this was a clever project. The theory you had is all there and I found it interesting to watch despite the failure. It's just a shame there are people who don't realize just how complex and intricate it is to pull this kinda thing off and it annoys me that people have complained because you quit the project. Rolls Royce don't spend millions of pounds on experienced engineers because these kinda things, models or to scale, can be done in a garage. Cool video :)
@superfunnyman123 you shouldnt give up, your design will work eventually, and maybe you can market the plans to the R/C plane/boat community. One suggestion I would make is to make the blades diameter larger so that the blades are close to the diameter of the can. You would be able to make the bearing mounts long enough to stick out the sides of the can. They could also function as an engine mount. to balance the turbine spin it and then sand the bottom fin when it stops.
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
At least in Romania & the deep South of the civilised parts of white America the folks know how to make do & to git by with they wits but there's some jobs you just can't take short cuts with so any fool knows that if you ever want to weld a real life tin can you have to go to Walmart & buy one of those Chinese tin can welders like John West did for it's cans of Salmon...
@superfunnyman123 Dead? :-P Hey awesome work mate! I'm trying to build something very similar (using tomato sauce cans), and it's good to have watched this video it helped me put some pieces together in the head. I sooo don't know where am heading with that... Why'd you drop the whole thing? Is it really *that* dangerous?
@spacelizardlaw ... Shit-head? Moi...? You must have me confused with Luke Shywalker or his big hairy side-kick. Hell I'm just saying Chinese make great cannaries. Or was it Canary's...? I Don't know. Either way they make good shite & ever since Reagan all America makes is dollars & sense & even they're getting plastic with sense now. Lighten-up... I'ver got brain damage...
Nah-seriously I'm just an educated brain-damaged idiot-savant...
Anyone want to buy a post-industrial economy...? Cheap?
you need to get your tolerances tighter on the distance between the compressor blade and can wall, and same with the turbine. this is a cool project though!
Use a piece of rubber backed aluminum sheet about 3/4 wide with small sheet metal scews. Put the rubber side up. You find the stuff at hardware stores. It's called pin flashing. You can cut up a vent boot as well. That will seal the can.
hose clamp it? will that work, or do you need it to be smooth all the way around? you can also use that aluminum tape... but I'm not sure if that kind of tape can handle the heat? lol I know this video is kind of old but I thought I leave you with this comment anyway, Good Luck!
Just cut a section from another soup can as an overlay, then hose clamp it together,.... easy peasy. What are you thoughts on the balance of the rotor/shaft assy? Things go real bad real fast with real badass fast destruction. Close that biotch in some sort of scatter shield prior to startup!!! Also, I'm thinking there's not going to be too much compression other than intake for combustion. Good luck!
Use a spot welder with high temperature Tape to seal the holes, or you could use furnace putty to seal the holes. I suggest using aluminum sheet metal with a small tube/turbine. As long as you reinforce, use an extra piece of metal along the seams when welding so you do not take away from material while welding. Think of it like a patch. :) I suggest sketching out your parts on aluminum and then cutting them with tin snips. Use Skate board bearings for your axle use high temp steel rod.
I don't see how the simple turbine on the intake side is going to work as a compressor. it seems like it would move fresh air into the engine, but at high speed and low pressure, and would make it hard to keep the flame lit. I would use a simple centrifugal compresser instead, you could probably make one with the same materials. Also, definitely use wire and/or hose clamps to close it. they'll help maintain the circular shape by squeezing from all angles.
solder the the circumpfrence, not the hole can, just an inch, and then procede to solder all the ridges in the soup can, then do one solder line up and down the can over the gap inbetween the ridges
@snakev10v5 im doing the exact thing to my jet can engine lol its a diced tomato jet engine lmfao. i just made the combustion chamber just simple enough to hold the heat and preasure then i need to make a shroud and some stationary blades its going to be a bitch
I cant see a combustor can anywhere...amongst other things. I used to have a Wren MW54 which is a typical micro jet...this used a centrifugal compressor...not sure if the Axial type (like yours) would be ideal? Please dont get me wrong, you are entitled to tinker about with your project.
You can get plans for a more powerful jet, look for either 'Kurt Shcreckling' or 'Thomas Kamps' these guys have produced books....turbine is easier to build than a piston engine
If I was air under pressure, im pretty sure I would not like going through the turbine blades, and would rather come out of the compressor, which is backwards. It should be the other way around by significant margin.
You should try making your turbine (hot) wheel smaller and reducing the can size at the rear. the problem is is that you lack pressure in your combustion chamber, it's not gassifying like it should, hence no power. also you should be VERY concerned with balancing your turbine and compressor wheels, if this thing were to take off and run for some reason, you would be in danger via shrapnel quite suddenly. let me know what you think!
sorry that wont work :-/ U need a flame tube or combustion chamber where the heated gasses can expand and shoot rearwards. im woking on a similar project and im using a deodarant can with holes in it
By the way did you tested how your ball-bearings oil holding up the heat and flame? My previous version jet engine axis with ball-bearing got very hard to rotate after test because the oil burnt inside. Now i'm trying to make one engine without ball-bearings.
I have one that I made kinda the same and I had the same problem I took a piece of really thin metal tubing and used it as a sleeve to go over it and mine runs great and makes allot trust.. I use mine to drive a boat I shoot the thrust and shoot it up a smoke stack and make an extention on my shaft to turn a prop
@0812201 yeah i got 2 very nice hose clamps for it already. and ur totally right about the mangled mess lol! that was humanity failure, this is a new brake through in red neck technology! LMAO!
@brsild well im not really shure yet im working on a combuster lining for it so that i can get a better burn. and i still need to cut out a new compressor blade and seal the whole thing with jb weld. im also currently working on another motorized bike this week so idk hopefully soon just really busy right now.
Take another soup can remove the ends and cut the can in quarters length wise. Next bridge or over lay the cut you now have and use several LARGE ss hose clamps and tighen your round nacelle form. If you need air tight seal on the length of the unit use JB Weld or, if you want to open the can for inspection use RED RTV by Permatex it is made to be used to form gaskets for auto exhaust systems. Hope this helps.
itd be awsome if someone put one in a rc model

You can get plans for a more powerful jet, look for either 'Kurt Shcreckling' or 'Thomas Kamps' these guys have produced books....turbine is easier to build than a piston engine

Clamp, then add a sheet cut from an identical can on top and lap weld it.
kenshinbattousai374 10 months ago
I would pound out a piece of sheet metal, put it over the top and weld it in place. I'm curious, what are you using as a bearing?

You should try gluing half a soup can over the joint. This turbine does not actually look like it compresses the air inside it, though.

If I was air under pressure, im pretty sure I would not like going through the turbine blades, and would rather come out of the compressor, which is backwards. It should be the other way around by significant margin.

could you show how the bearings are made/attached?

You could try holding the can together with a clamp of some sort.

You should try making your turbine (hot) wheel smaller and reducing the can size at the rear. the problem is is that you lack pressure in your combustion chamber, it's not gassifying like it should, hence no power. also you should be VERY concerned with balancing your turbine and compressor wheels, if this thing were to take off and run for some reason, you would be in danger via shrapnel quite suddenly. let me know what you think!

compression?

sorry that wont work :-/ U need a flame tube or combustion chamber where the heated gasses can expand and shoot rearwards. im woking on a similar project and im using a deodarant can with holes in it

By the way did you tested how your ball-bearings oil holding up the heat and flame? My previous version jet engine axis with ball-bearing got very hard to rotate after test because the oil burnt inside. Now i'm trying to make one engine without ball-bearings.

Does it work? I've been trying to make a jet engine for about 1 month till now and still no success.

I have one that I made kinda the same and I had the same problem I took a piece of really thin metal tubing and used it as a sleeve to go over it and mine runs great and makes allot trust.. I use mine to drive a boat I shoot the thrust and shoot it up a smoke stack and make an extention on my shaft to turn a prop
Nice work

@brsild well im not really shure yet im working on a combuster lining for it so that i can get a better burn. and i still need to cut out a new compressor blade and seal the whole thing with jb weld. im also currently working on another motorized bike this week so idk hopefully soon just really busy right now.
superfunnyman123 1 year ago
Take another soup can remove the ends and cut the can in quarters length wise. Next bridge or over lay the cut you now have and use several LARGE ss hose clamps and tighen your round nacelle form. If you need air tight seal on the length of the unit use JB Weld or, if you want to open the can for inspection use RED RTV by Permatex it is made to be used to form gaskets for auto exhaust systems. Hope this helps.
