Gas turbine failure

[Jayc2592]

508 people are lame...

[BreakingBucharest1]

close to meltdown

[mwhite112393]

I don't know why everyone thinks these can explode. Turbines are some of the safest engines ever produced. Failure rarely results in a catastrophic "explosion" of sorts.

[packinwood2009]

If an engine is running right the hot exhaust gas is contained in the center by cooler bypass air and never actually touches the sides. Seems like a clogged fuel nozzle spraying fuel toward the side of the can.

[R5H4D0W]

what was the cause? a broken fuel injector?

[sdavies45]

@codzomz EGT stands for Exhaust Gas Temperature as you may know, so there will be a measurable temperature at the exhaust.

[FiveMinutesTo12AM]

I was so waiting to say .... "BOOM goes the dynamite"

[6SIX6Bloodshedded]

@r00dd00d 222 now :) *saying this because of the cool number*

[arka67]

I like it too .... OMG !

[TheHouse230]

flame out

[buzzindozen]

GAY AND LAME................ GLAME

[avatar098]

A failure is a failure. I'm liking it :/

[marshalljimduncan]

fake

[vitalTubing]

thought it was gonna blow and kinda glad they stopped in time before the whole casing melts and the blades went flying.....

[codzomz]

What happened? if it is due to an overheat of the aft compressor section I would recommend creating an engine system that has at least a 6:1 flow ration, cool it just through ram air, by the I do not know what runeman0726 is talking about, you obviously are not in an aircraft so there are no EGT's probably just ITT but thats it.

[runeman0726]

Never heard of monitoring EGT? they should have noticed a spike in the numbers

[jonobonnowonno1]

that'll get your hair dry

[idontrunntoofast]

come on you shut it off too soon.

dislike.

[XHyperxNovaX]

@idontrunntoofast This thing costs thousands of dollars. Idiot.

[idontrunntoofast]

@XHyperxNovaX wow people’s lack of humor (incredible) you think that i don't know how much something like this costs. i have been working on my own build (gas/propane) turbine, if i can get my hands on a proper turbocharger sorta going to be a garage toy. try to differentiate between real idiots on comment pages and those of us who have like to have fun. of which you seem to be neither.

[ryancartwright514]

i thought it would go boom :(

im disliking >.>

[wai2sem]

@ryancartwright514 come on guys, if this thing exploded, i have to pay back my uni few thousand dollar

[Raxarax]

@wai2sem Ya, but people come here to see the explosion. You should rename the vid "gas turbine overheat"

[Mhorix]

@wai2sem but it didnt fail...

[MingGuoLi]

@wai2sem I don't think many of us would care. (I'm just being honest.) But if it did explode, we wouldn't see this video.

[b22frozenfire]

@wai2sem how'd you go about fixing it?

[Classicnovaguy]

@ryancartwright514 Nope, these engines just stop, then you fall out of the sky, then go boom.

[ryancartwright514]

@Classicnovaguy doeesnt matter i want to see some thing go boom! :(

[418cable418]

I have a few cylinder shaped large gas turbine air filters by AFF. There are two different sizes. They are brand new in the box. Ill sell and ship them CHEAP! send me message or comment if interested!

[SMPTEflorida]

In Soviet Russia, Turbine Fails YOU!

[cjeam9199]

@SMPTEflorida dude, 2007 called, they want their meme back.

[demagoguely]

... i came here for an explosions :(

[sixtiesforever1966]

Is that a Hot Dog Barbicue?

[engrprat]

chk ma new engine design n 'hung' start at youtube.com/watch?v=TDjazTOWUc­o

[zimtower]

The shamanaladingdong bearings failed, causing the ferrous blades to stick and the jet stream to burn the nozzle.

[bladder1010]

See the problem? It's obviously your fetzer valve.

[STRYKARLITE]

@bladder1010 It's not a fetzer valve! It's a canardly valve...It canardly keep running.

[r00dd00d]

143 people enjoy watching explosions

[PlebScrubber]

some kid with a red light shines it on the engine every time they try to test it,

just to freak them out

[QuackerFilmz]

a few questions..

1. why are the wires where the giant flame comes out?

2. why are you running this near windows?

3. why are you running this INDOORS?

[FlightRecorder1]

@QuackerFilmz

They appear to be running behind it. Either that or they are for measuring a temp or something

Probably in a test chamber, those windows would be designed for the enclosure

Test facilities are mainly indoors to control the environment

[DelusionalSyko]

@QuackerFilmz 1. The wires are far behind the engine. It just looks like they're closer.

2. Those "Windows" are probably a plexi-glass protective shield just encase things go wrong.

3. They probably have proper ventilation for the testing.

[tzup85]

can put my face in front of that?

[4500intelx]

lets touch the orange thing

[grabyourgat]

You should always check the muffler bearings first

[gullreefclub]

I saw what was wrong right away the conknockulator valve malfunctioned, replace it and the adjust the kaniffling pins to 1x rich

[jasonyeozhishen]

now.. lick it.. XD  !!

[guidocreusen]

made in russia

[stingerkillAC130]

made in china

[bullshipus123]

Lube the polly coated muffler bearings before and after start and even while running... MORONS!!! :-)

[andre57750]

o homem apagou =)

[andre57750]

eu pensava que o mutor ia derreter

[braincrisp1]

I was waiting for it to melt my computer screen.

[jptanguero]

Learning from failure = progress

;-)

[Austin512Pioneer]

Yeah the flux capacitor actuating valve thingamajig. That's the problem..I mean just by looking at it anyone with commonsense would know that.

[LoveTechnoHateRock]

That is HOT!

[VintageBlacklist]

sounds off, but god it looks so cool lol, next jet turbine video lol

[KatiushaVN4]

it doesn't sound right

[stormingful]

made in china :D

[HeatherHell666]

you screwed up when you decided to play NASA and not leave well enough alone. Nobody ain't never done Nuthin' good, that didn't just leave it to the professionals.

[BadIdeas101]

needs more cold air. make it -40 in the chamber!

[Alfred645]

lol not enough cooling air surrounding the cobustion cans lads.

[MrFebrow]

in the last moment woooow

[ROCKSOLID19]

I love jet engines!!!!

[aval1998]

after burner?

[TKVRPRJCT]

Thanks for testing that before I bolted it to my car.

[horizon1015]

Looks like the EGT got a bit high lol

[jsmallwood2007]

....no worse then the next morning after Beer and Wings night.

[b101aa2]

ouch

[joelthecool3]

wattahead

[limppimento55]

Well, that was anticlimatic.

[izaatmusic]

how small the fan blades were?

[MichaelCox]

Dear Santa...

...and make sure it works.

[ledcamaro70]

someone forgot to watch the EGT gauge, i like how the guy was like Woa Woa Woa

[leehorst]

i was looking for something more umm... catastrophic. dislike

[Detroit8V92tta]

Boring!! It sounded like turning off the vacuum cleaner :(

[sirtom68]

Needs increased side flow introduced into the can/flame holder, it cools the flame to a point where it wont melt the exhaust . Only about 25% of the air from the compressor needs to be injected into the front of the can and mixed for combustion, the other 75% should be vented in through the sides.

[Lordofdragons16]

OI thpught it was going to overheat and have a side-blow out.

That would have been nasty to try and clean up.

[kalitron60609]

I almost shit myself when i saw it started to glow!!!

[figglefro]

WOW

[deadman12078]

Crap... failed before you could throw the cat into the intake. Always next time.

[wemmetje1]

@deadman12078 haha :p i lol'd



[chrisdann92]

6.7 giggawatts



[Verdigo76]

Anyone know what the failure was?

[koolerv8kid]

That's it? I'm with Dlucas1357 on this one...

[fusi0n556]

hold up, i just need to light my cigarette

[MrLjk09]

i need that to power my fan!

[nate11577]

lool the pilot light whent out

[wilsonxmct]

LOL!! after burner are used is it?

[Saulscmit]

@wilsonxmct After burners will make this thing at least 3-4 feet longer. Turbofan's would out play this by miles, gas turbines aren't really equiped with an afterburner, since AB's are only used in Military aircraft. I hope to have a half scale model of a F-18, or a MiG-33 or something. Maybe even a Su PAKFA if they release the dimentions for it. CAD & CNC will make the entire thing for me :)

[stubbadub3000]

Kids, this is what happens when turbines try to be Charlie Sheen....

[Tectonicsurfer]

Excellent. Will this go straight into my Land Rover

[Porre1337]

thats happen when i toch metal :D

[jubbahut1211]

wow!!! dont think im going to sleep tonight after that one!!

[PETERBILT281DUEL]

EPIC FAIL haha

[baggie00001]

Chuck Norris uses one of these to light his cigarette

[mutant0177]

Waht about using ceramics?

[RyuDarragh]

@mutant0177: Ceramics are used in some jet engines, but they are brittle and not suited for cost sensitive blades. Each rotor blade takes a double pounding as it passes each point between the stator blades and most ceramics except some highly expensive exotics tend to fatigue and break quickly.

[Ometopada]

There`s an app for that too.

[PhOeNiXpIoLe]

I like how the guy yells "whoa whoa!!!!"

[PhOeNiXpIoLe]

holy shit thats scary

[Dre4dwolf]

Where is the explosion? ;p

Should try making a custom exhaust outlet to pre-heat the fuel and cool the engine at the same time ;p.... then strap like 4 of them to your back and take off mwahaha,

[fortziii]

i was waiting for my speakers to go BOOOMMMM!!!

but nadah...

[chefgiovanni]

Lucky, turkeys dont fly very high !

[sweetcheeba1]

Dare someone to put their bellend against it

[Squarerig]

Is this engine being built into the new AIRBUS?

[pashazait]

Now who dares to touch it?

[VWGTI4LIFE]

Yawn.

[theanthony345]

is that santa at 0:12 lol

[MODZTALK]

would the thing blow up if you dident stop it?

[antoset83]

every one on here has a rocket science degree

[alexthepalix]

@megmut what are you on about!?!?!

[Jacobrb13]

@Dlucas 1357 lol same :D

[orugadeoro]

UFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFF!!!!

[Dlucas1357]

i was expecting the thing to blow into a zillion pieces and cause major mayhem

[MrSimon002]

@Dlucas1357 Fantastic comment hahaha xD

[modwebby]

@Dlucas1357 it would only melt;)

[PanchoTadura]

@Dlucas1357 jjajaj

[TYTY21010]

@Dlucas1357 Yea, Somting like zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzZZZZZZzzz­zZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ----­--BOOOM!

[Raidfreak]

@Dlucas1357 And that probably would have happened had they not be smart enough to "ABORT NOW!" lol.

[Teslalabor]

and where's the problem???

[olstar18]

@Teslalabor You saw how that metal started glowing red right. That should never happen.

[HoldOnAndSmile]

all you gotta do is re-sync the flux capacitor..

[ThyBiding]

@HoldOnAndSmile I would guess the first stage induction fan has a indentation which caused the auxiliary turbine to have asymmetrical thrust, which is why the outlet had an increase in y-axis thermodynamic energy.

[builder2b]

@ThyBiding Yea, what he said...

[TheCottonTop]

@HoldOnAndSmile You will need a left handed screwdriver for that.

[AD7974]

@HoldOnAndSmile and hit 88 miles an hour

[cs512tr]

@HoldOnAndSmile

flux capacitor, Great Scott!

[Orion8888888]

@HoldOnAndSmile Yes, but that would require plutonium in order to generate 1.21 gigawats... GREAT SCOTT !

[segarza]

@Orion8888888 1.21 Gigawatts!?....1.21 Gigawatts!?...the only thing that can genrate that kind of power is a bolt of lightning!

[Orion8888888]

@segarza Back to the Future trilogy FTW !

[thaihustler]

@HoldOnAndSmile out of all the 226 thumbs up(inducing me), i guess there are like 6 people who really know what you mean.

[jlangfel]

Seems to be a bit of excess heat

[Thehaxorfull1]

guys the barbecu is rdy xD ^^

[joshua987430roblox]

@Thehaxorfull1 how would you like ur hamburgers burnt or ash flavour

[cessnaclub]

Wow you put one simple video on Youtube and out come all the experts hey..LOL

[operationcwaI789789]

@megmut Self-proclaimed all-knowing gas turbine experts like you are coming out of the woodwork everytime a video/story like this is posted on a website.

I am soo happy for wai2sem's reply which explained the actual reason behind this engine failure.

I am even happier that you are shown to the world truly as the dumbass that you are.

[fedrozx]

living and let see youtube

[dethklok6511]

Yo dawg, I heard you like jet engines so we put a jet engine in your jet engine so you can burn while you burn.

[teckeleddie]

Why shut it down I love fireworks.

[fireant666]

@megmut

for someone talking some scientific whatnot, you can't spell for shit. I agree with you though. more side inlets would cool off that injun alot. lol

[Rocketdroid111]

and then BOOM

[louswire]

Well... that's why you test them... to find the weak points. That's why they call it research and development... and that's why the damn things are so expensive.

[aval1998]

nice after-burner you got there

[jjjazzycraig]

my dyson vacuum cleaner has more suck power.

[rockhopper123452]

hey the guy scram at 0:14

[leandeganis]

what? nobody death? no explosion? no fire? that was weak

[robertgift]

@wwwtotalitaerde  And torturing and murdering your brother shut down your homepage, how?

[aelita12345678910]

can i put my smoke in it?

[OmegaDude22]

Damn that was running hot O_O

[shigalbigal]

Chuck Norris's hairdryer broke..

[kopronko]

@megmut

Interesting . I tought , that at these turbine engines temperature doesn't matter :-/

[anonasalways]

@kopronko

Actually, material temperature limits are the single greatest thing holding back the efficiency of gas turbine engines.

[BHartranft123]

OMG

[vmystikilv]

Suggesting next time you build that sucker out of Adamantium

[amarjanjooha]

Of course the redness of the outer wall is because of no/less lubrication lubrication but in both the cases the redness supposed be circumferential..well i guess it can be because of the material failure(material of the jet Pipe).....

[mayito714]

Great heat transfer example....

[siddharthchauhan83]

well time to weld the lubrication tube and have a rerun

[ROBLOXROX007]

Roasted Marshmallows anyone?

[phoenixaltar]

dude i nearly shat my pants..

[Abyss0147]

"Run its going to explode!!"

*guy walks out of the bathroom, finding the building deserted

"What did I missed?"

[amjadzx112]

@megmut I think it's due to the cooling system. there is not enough air to cool the chamber ??

[bjpakosta]

so and where is the hollywood explosion and all the flying gizmos debries? at least a small explosion would be nice. I have some spare napalm, if you want...just foolin around. Peace

[OK2BCK]

"stop, stop!!"

[Edge111189]

needs thicker shell.

[legox50]

Have you tried making the fuel/air mix oxygen lean? Lean happens when the fuel has too much oxygen and also has a lower temperature than a perfect fuel/air mix.

[VolkgartenBySquirrel]

If Megmut's right, would the overheat have been caused by an insufficient exit space from the combustion chamber, so that a stalled volume of ignited gas had accumulated, in the manner of an inversion layer, and overheated the engine? Or was it that the surface of the pipe experienced airfoil stalling due to cavitation, and that a turbulent buildup of superheated fuel took place just before engine failure?

[RJA0112]

@megmut, well its a good thing we have gas turbine engine specialist here....im not sure why its good....it just is.....

[brandonya1990]

Hold on let me throw a couple hamburgers on there, i bet it would cook them instantly

[puusycat]

@brandonya1990 nahh, you'd probably have a burger soup... :-P

[Danny7930]

use i titanium back

$250 roughly but its gonna work no prob

[haavardlill]

oooh. to thin plates :P
