  • max rpm?

  • looks like it isn't balanced very well.

  • AWESOME QUALITY VIDEO 

  • fix the axle, at high speeds if any gyroscopic motion gets negated that thing will fly into anything it hits like a hot knife in butter.

  • where is 150psi?

  • "Never free spin anything without proper safety protection." So i have to put a polycarbonate screen in front of my vinyl player, microwave and washing machine..

  • cogging? steam or just air? how about water?

  • Where can we buy one exactly, thank you.

  • but - whitch utility tihs component.... where is this can apllicant

  • I would like to know where did you buy this turbine.... I need to buy one for a school project.

    Thanks and regards.

  • i thought it was gona explode

  • What sort of rpm? In theory you could calculate it my measuring the frequency of the noise and counting the fins around it, pretty straight forward maths. Nice job.

  • RPM?

  • Where can I get one of these?

  • argh my hand xD

  • That blade is designed to take high presure steam from the side , not the top. cheers

  • @normellow yep a pressure drop through a nozzle and an increase in velocity which then hit the blade give up energy to the rotor and repeat through X number of stages

  • sweet sound!!!

  • how fast it was goin :P ?

  • Can you run it to destruction please... thumbs up if you want to see it explode!

  • i would like one where do i get that do you have a part number thats the coolest thing its perfect for what i want it for doc_comet@yahoo.com

  • Cool, now I know where that sound comes from!

  • If I had a couple of those, maybe I could date pretty Chinese girl :)

  • @sirtom68

    Please explain the logic. I have managed to date pretty Chinese girls without having a single one. :)

  • Mr. Rojas, can you help me find a turbine like that or are you willing to sell that one?

  • go ahead, touch it, i dare ya:)

  • @dpress95 i put my dick in it... the tubine broke.

  • IT LOOKS LIKE WII SIREN 

  • That setup is meant to be fed hot gases from the combustion chamber of a gas turbine. The hot gas hits the turbine only after passing through a diffuser and fixed position or non rotating stator or static blades that direct them at a around a 45 degree angle opposite and through the turbine blades. Would be nice to have a small reliable gas or whatever turbine to charge large battery banks a couple times a week. Run it off whatever you have on hand. Now that's what I call making power.

  • I bet you have had 500 messages from the turbo jet heads on you tube wanting to buy that turbine from you or find out where they can get one. Really is cool stuff right there. I think those blades are adjustable if you have the right tools.

  • ITS GUNNA BLOWW!!!!

  • touching video work

  • now put your fingers inside :)

  • How tall can water in a vertical pipe generate 45 psi?

  • Umm. That was incredibly stupid. The energy stored in the turbine could cut a person in half if it got loose or exploded. There is a reason why these things are mounted on shafts with large bearings.

  • @dmonat READ THE DISCLAIMER AND INFO BEFORE YOU LOOK RETARDED. I hate you retards that type before you read.. oh wait I got it. You can't read. I'm sorry your illiterate, Oh wait you can type. that just makes you a troll and an asshole. Get Bent

  • @dmonat

    yeah but what a way to die

  • Scary ! I put a polycarbonate screen in front of my computer monitor!

  • @winterka100 Me too!!!

  • what happens if i start throwing rocks in it

  • dos this has the same prencpal as a jet engine ? and what is it used for?

  • is it interesting

    

  • id like it at 200bar 3000psi (piiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii........ii­iiiiii...b0oM)

  • Beautiful turbine. 

  • certainly sounds like a helicopter

  • Adjust volume? You mean UP?

  • Policarbonate material can burn?

  • I want video quality like this... What kinda camera?

  • how about any explanations ???

    

  • That looks like aircraft grade titanium to me!

  • Can you stick your dick in it?

  • I don't understand how this is an effective way to generate power when using a significant amount of power for an air compressor to spin it. I presume it would be implemented as a hydro electric generator?

  • more psi haha no 55 to 60

  • Correct me if i'm wrong, but it looks as if the individual blade pitch can be variably set by what looks to be set screws on the backside. Anyone?

  • Wiatraczek ????? Ż A L !!!!!!!!!!

  • so I have a question, if you use steam as a power source and have like 4 inputs could you get enough shaft power to really run something like a 1KW generator?

  • is that made from inconel

  • @honeybunchickens you are only the second person I have ever heard mention that type of metal. The other is my father, who does work in the defense industry. Just saw your post and thought I would comment.

  • is that for a jet turbine engine

  • why tha heck do we still sue inefficient car engine motors when we could be using this. 25 psi to generate that much power is awesome.

  • @roberrules haha man you actually made me laugh with that comment!

  • Oh man! That is a beautiful turbine- I'd love to get my hands on one...

  • If u'dve had the shaft and turbine balanced out properly u'dve probably gotten a better result too. All-in-all i think it's pretty cool. Nice!

  • What was the rpm of this at 45 psi? Guy, this is really nice! Thumbs up!

  • I used to do this at home with a drinking straw and a bottle cap :D

  • Where did you get that piece?

  • you should try to make a high temperature tesla turbine for use with a steam line heated by your solar lens.

  • Dan

    Nice looking axial flow turbine. this is very close to what I'm looking for for a solar steam generator that uses an evacuated tube to generate steam. If you can get the turbine part together I can do the rest.

    John

  • Interesting... Too bad you didn't state the corresponding shaft horsepower for the different air pressure readings.

  • next time, straight to 80 :)

  • Great

  • If the air is coming form an air Compressor your not going green

  • @SuperAceofspace Sun > Steam > Turn that little wheel > Shaft > Electricity > You !

  • yeah please mount it properly!, no way is this designed for for flow perpendicular to its axis!

  • take out the wobble in it

    but still very nice

  • This probably can be used as a blow-down turbine in the exhaust system of a car to drive something. Such a system was used in the late forties & fifties with the Wright R3350 Turbo Compound - three turbines fed energy back to the crankshaft through fluid couplings. Especially a diesel is perfect because the exhaust gas is cooler and since there's no throttle, the maximum amount of air is always pumped through. I'd like such a turbine to drive my alternator.

  • @flexyco this is how a turbocharger works. it uses exhuast gasses to drive a turbine to drive a blower which increases HP and torqe

  • @adamtreyhyatt I am talking about turbo-compounding: the *kinetic energy* of the exhaust gasses is used to drive a turbine, which drives reduction gears and a fluid coupling, which can be used to transmit power back to the crankshaft or to drive a different component. Turbochargers use exhaust gas *pressure*, and have a different principle.

  • wow, want to know how much rpm it was :)

  • AAAARGH MY EARS!!!

  • Thanks for the warning about the sound volume ;D

  • COOL . what a WHINNER !!!! thanks.

  • lol and thats only 45 psi. i would LOVE to see someone spin something at 100 psi!

  • Whoa thats a nice set!

    Where did you find this?

  • You should have done 100psi

  • This impulse turbine has the same design as Pelton wheel.

    Well done very efficient and beautiful design.

  • i bet if you ask aerospace industry they could make this 1000 time better

  • as the rotating speed became faster it self stabilized.

    do the fins have variable angle capability?they don't seem to be onepiece with the disc

  • Im look for this turbine part seller or this part code number or any reference of this turbine wheel part engine thanks alot for any information. hagote@terra.com.br

  • man i love the sound they make when they speed up

  • cool

  • Fingers, eyes and other things can be lost.

    EPIC :-)

  • tesla technology

  • what was the RPM of it?

  • I'm pretty sure this turbine is intended for the gas to come in from the side of the blade, rather than from the end. Should be more efficient that way. It would be even more efficient if you are able to feed gas into all vanes simultaneously, though that would be difficult to do. You really need all of the parts that went with this blade.

  • You not safe behind the polycarbonate, a guy removed the rev limiter on his Mazda rotary and then he over revved it and the flywheel cam off and went through the STEEL firewall of the car and killed him - another guy put a ball bearing on his finger and it revved so hard it seized and took his finger off - dont mess with these things unless they in thick steel housings

  • You can have those water jet cut out of a plate for a cheap and nasty equivalent, if its built into a housing the difference in efficiency between a flat blade and a cupped blade will offset the purchase price, you will probably need a planetary gearbox to reap the rewards via a massive gear reduction.

  • what kind of of RPM are we talking about. awesome little thing

  • What kind of test was this?

    Delaval did that allready more than 100 years ago.He found that an impulse turbine needs more than one nozzel and much more than 40 psi.

    Stop playing,do some real tests,or turn of the camera

  • Now let's try floating it with magnets :)

  • put some magnets on it and have them go by coils generate some electricty.

    what are you using for bearings?

  • neat 4 steam, could maybe be converted to a undershot or overshot water turbine

  • Man you need a penleton wheel or you'll kill yourself testing this turbine blade. LoL? mAYBE NOT!

  • This is an impulse turbine, and the location of the air feed is incorrect. It should be at one side, with an angle of about 45 degrees to the axis of rotation. I foresee a considerable increase in rpm's if this is done.

  • Hey,is that a (29) Blade impulse Turbine?,if so i manufacture those,they are not very hard to build.I have several that i have already built and i am as of now in the process of building my own (10 KW) actual true- to-life steam turbine plant,i am not talking about these you see here on" YouTube",but a Real steam Turbine Plant with (6Stage) Compressor and Turbine along with my own Generator.I like those Impulse Turbines,Very Efficient and reliable indeed. :-)

  • @Sprauge99 If you build them....I can sell:-) a lot of people want them.

  • @Sprauge99

    then please show us some plans or something. share your knowlegde

  • @Sprauge99 - I just happen across this posting and I am looking for an efficient steam turbine to compliment a solar concentrator. The total collecting power is 12 KW, and tested output heating water is 65-75% efficient. I expect the final output to generate electricity between 3 to 4 KW. Did you complete your turbine yet?

  • @Sprauge99~ haha!.... thats SWEET!

  • @Sprauge99 Wow, did you build your turbine plant? Would love to see it running on here!!!

  • @Sprauge99. i am interested in same 5''d 15.7c impulse turbine weel and 6'' reaction turbine weel, how can we arrange something for details

  • @JCPH6102 Look up Pelton Wheel. Wikipedia for a start.

  • @jetbillca I also noticed the unstable motion of rotation. Tech minds think a like. Great idea tho, low psi for small generators.

  • @jetbillca~ so 45 deg to RADIAL axis and 45deg to AXIAL axis?

  • @jetbillca

    I could plug the rotor on to my steam jet / generator with proper steam inlet orientation to power that rotor up and see what it can really do with 30kw of steam power coming in at high P and T. See steam output at woodfirepower and if Dan will lend it, I'll hook it up and send back the video of how it worked out.............rt

  • @jetbillca it might increese rpm, but will decresse torque, witch is needed in a real aplication.

  • @jetbillca In theory this is at about 45 degress to teh axis. It just depends on the pointi n which teh angle is taken

  • were can u get those disks ?

  • did u get a reply?

  • *touches while spinning*

  • Licks while spinning

  • Could anyone tell me which is the most efficient engine for solar power? Helium based Stirling, water steam powered turbine or thermoacoustic?

  • QUITE intresting that the turbine stabilizes its self due to gyroscopic forces

    PRETTY COOL : )

  • lets hook some steam to it =)

  • Hi Dan: Nice turbine. I have been trying to make one just like that, where can I buy one ?

  • I got this off of Ebay. Bidding war

  • @GREENPOWERSCIENCE go ebay

  • @GREENPOWERSCIENCE hahha bidding war XD :D

  • wholey crap thaqnks for the warning about the sound!

  • What kind of torque you get?

  • I dont get it, why should I care about this? what doe sit do?

  • wtf is it for (the turbine) cos the blades arent slanted enought to be sucking any air

  • Dan i didnt understand a word you said lol, could you talk a little slower in the next vid?

  • :-)

  • I'm really interested in your project. I started building the Yamato in 1/72nd and thought it might be nice to make it steam turbine powered.  What is the diameter of the blade? Thank you, Bill

  • stick your finger to the side at 50 psi its fun

  • That was cool, I turned it real loud to make my drunken computerboy neighbor wonder what's going on next door.

    Hehe. Pay back for his lousy guitar playing at 1am

  • The nozzle is located incorrectly for optimum performance. It should come in from the side at about 30 degrees. Wheels of this type are designed to operate in a cross-flow configuration not from the edge like a pelton wheel which has cutouts in the 'buckets' to reduce the blocking effects on the water jet by the following 'bucket'. This wheel seems to have blades that can be adjusted to mattch the incoming flow.

  • If you were to put a generator on the shaft and then plug the compressor into your neighbor's outlet you could create free power.

  • ...... whats it all about Alfie?

  • yeah this here is a impulse turbine probably from an alison 250 or similar. its not from a starter or speed indicator.

  • Thanks for that info MrSneakyNicky.

    It helped me find this:

    watch?v=XBXrnES2tqc

    I've never played with an impulse turbine motor - looks very interesting.

  • No worries mate, they are just an axial flow turbine with vanes to guide the jet flow over the blades of the turbine in the same direction the blade move, rather than across them, hence the shape of the blades on this turbine. Usually found in turbine engines with a centrifugal compressor, like most heli engines.

  • Wow! I think you've discovered the most annoying high pitch noise in the world! Nice turbine though.

  • wow turbina ciśnieniowa

  • Nice, I'm guessing this may have been a turbine for an air starter? Or speed indicator? I once worked at a place where we molded starter turbines out of anti-static, ceramic plastic. There was a version about 5" diameter that was rated about 65HP, the design on ours was much different with the vanes all in the sides and a matched casing needed. See one type in action here:

    watch?v=LKUMuqK5KF4

  • You should do a torque test. Must have a bit.. Also how much steam do you need to generate to get that to max psi? Where's the tank?

  • It's a nice peltron turbine.

  • Where did you get this and what other sizes are there for diameter and paddles?

  • do you what rpm speed this thing hit?

  • what are your plans 4 it

  • CO2 emissions from volcanic eruptions are 1000s times more than all human CO2 emissions. Besides phytoplankton in world's oceans convert CO2 into O2 and chemical energy. The human CO2 footprint scare is BS meant to control you. Do your own research, I'd continually do EXTENSIVE research on this to educate my science students. Get informed and don't worry about human CO2. Yes, I teach Marine Science and Chemistry for a living.

  • We have the technology to have free energy. Rich bastards that own the power companies and oil prevent it from happening.

  • @anyonefindAMERICA

    wrong

    if Free Energy technology existed, no one, not even the Rich, would need money.

    no one would need to go to the effort of acquiring and maintaining monetary wealth.

    "free" means unlimited. Energy is not, its Finite.

  • cool stuff

  • how much did you get it for ?

  • $234

    Denise thought I was crazy:-) The assembly is really amazing. I was thinking how difficult it would be to make something like that.

    Dan

  • lol Next episode. Dan live from the dog house. Brave soul i must say. A bit costly. How easy u ask? All depends, if u had a nice table top cnc machine u could make the the blades, and the shaft on a simple drill press (out of wood any). Only if i had the tools i would try to match you.

  • whys it so wobbly?

  • its not propperly secured to a shaft

  • I did not test it at full RPMS because it is just squeezed into a 1.5" hole in a 2x4. Also the bearing is seated with teflon Tape and Electrical tape. When I get the proper safe mount I will test it again with 125 PSI and 2400 psi pressure washer:-)

  • Where did you get it?

  • The French are BUILDING cars that run off of compressed air as an energy resevoir. Smart people those French.

  • PsychoticusRex, yup compressed air engines would reduce Co2 from cars. Yet most people would power the compressors used to fill the air tanks on their MDI CityCATS with electricity off the normal grid. Of course while the car you use is cleaner the power you use to recharge the air tank is not. The US still relies on coal for most of the electricity it uses. The French generate most of their electricity at nuclear power plants. At least the French do not have to worry about Co2 emissions though.

  • I like the reduced Co2 aspect using Nuclear I am however troubled with the spent fuel rod storage problem. Were it not such a safety problem loading the rods and other nuclear waste on a rocket and shooting it to the sun would be a clean solution. Any thoughts?

  • Interesting. I've been thinking about this recently. Given that the raw materials came out of the ground originally, why can't they just go back into the ground? Because the fuel that was created is no longer benign, so it would poison the ground water etc.

    So, why not process the spent fuel back into something that is once again benign, then it can be disposed of safely.

    It can't be that difficult, surely.

  • Hello RupertsCrystals: The process of creating the radioactive isotope is long and complicated, the reversal will be no less difficult.

  • 1foxtrot70: There's very impressive work being done in physics that in a few decades will alow us to start playing arround with the strong and weak nuclear forces...thus able to either MAKE the radioactive isotopes non radioactive or reduce them to their final stable isotope in their chain. I wish more people read Physics journals. :(

  • Hello PRex: That is impressive if the radioactive isotopes can be made non-radioactive or benign that would be a real short in the arm for the industry not to mention mankind.

  • 1foxtrot70: Unfortunately we're just touching the theoretical models now, we're decades away from a laboratory test stand and still more decades away from practical engineering application. Read "All Flesh Is Grass" for some startling implications.
