v1 buzz bomb pulse jet engine

[cjheaford]

You jumped, ( I would too ) but the axels seemingly didn't budge. Not even a millimeter.

This isn't a challenge- I just want to understand.

[cjheaford]

Thanks for this!

Physics question:

I don't see that trailer anchored with anything other than a 2x6 at the tires, and the pedestal in front.

What is keeping that engine from shooting the trailer it is secured to into the next zip code?

[futureopression]

Yup. And that was me.

[omgidontknowwtf]

hahahah scared the shit out of the camera man when it started lol

[TheBlackBritt]

Is this how the made the DUN DUN DUN DE DUN DUN for the battlefield theme?

[Flippit1303]

wish that Verizon dude would stand next to this and say "CAN YOU HEAR ME NOW!!!!"

[TruEviLuKki]

I LOVE DUBSTEP

[engineworksgmbh]

What??? Did somebody say something?

[elvinhickma12k]

Your video is a favorite on Singapore

[emforty2]

i heard the fuel efficiency if thats the correct term is in the Gallons Per Second

[futureopression]

I know this vids audio is distorted, but the weird thing is, thats almost how it was in person. Ever been by something so loud you can't make it out? A concert where the volume is way to high? Same thing. So this is actually a pretty good representation of what it was like being so close to this. At their air show, the sound was very different because of the distance. I hope they demonstrate it again.

[supernaturalmc]

This is just amazing

[asheguns]

Sweet! Thanks for posting!

[ultrajd]

Well what do you know it really does make a buzzing noise. 

[skyprop]

Damn This means Business!!

[absurdny]

I just sampled 0:03:00 to 0:03:25 and made a hard dance kick out of it

[matthewvanh]

The ULTIMATE bass test!

[yamahonkawazuki]

@matthewvanh thats what i was thinking lol. my subwoofer was goin NUTS

[Oldbmwr100rs]

An artist group out of San Francisco called "Survival research labs" made one of these engines for performances,it's fed air from a car engine driven industrial blower. It was designed to make the maximum amount of noise,and does so with deafening effectiveness! I've seen the windows on downtown buildings shimmering from the low frequency sounds that thing generated. Look it up, it's worth a view!

[SEANM4444]

QUEEF!!!

[tracysrocket]

That was awesome. It must have been what it sounded like.

Too bad it was so loud that the camera audio couldn't recorded it without distortion. It would have been better if it was 100 meters further away.

[PorkIsHalal]

I believe that in the 1943-44, if you hear the engine goes at 1:11, the English were not cheering like those who did in the video. That silence would had been deafening.

[merdaporrenta]

Thumbs up if you scared the shit when its started.

[ArcturanMegadonkey]

impressive, REALLY impressive.

Got loads of jet related vids on my channel, can you have a look and subscribe please.

There's a small pulsejet on a delta that is flying

[oddsource]

now thats bass... fuck the records. Just use this blow out doors, windows. LOL

[PitbullNL]

immagine how terrifying those things must have sounded above london in WW2

[gokoo123]

@PitbullNL V1's were never used in londons attacks...

[DerPanzerjager]

@gokoo123 You best be trollin'.

[harley333man]

@gokoo123 You are wrong.

[gokoo123]

@harley333man are you insane? those things were like nuclear bombs,only a little less strong. you could never carpet bomb with a V1,since its too big for any WW2 plane to carry,and london was ONLY carpet bombed.

[freakfurt]

@gokoo123 Actually the Luftwaffe began mounting the V1's on their bombers later in the war.

[twobluehorses]

@gokoo123 Once the Germans lost their ground launch facilities they fired V-1s from He-111s over the North Sea. The warhead on a V-1 was around 2,000 pounds far less destructive power than even a tactical nuclear weapon. Had the Germans been able to launch sufficient quantities of V-1s at the same time & get them to their target the effect would have been like carpet bombing. However, V-1s were not a war winning weapon and a great deal of mythology has grown up about their effectiveness.

[ledtoetmn]

@gokoo123 A quick search on google....... "Almost 9,250 V1's were fired against London, but less than 2,500 reached their target. In flight they were almost as vulnerable as their ramps: about 2,000 were destroyed by anti-aircraft gunfire; 2,000 by fighter planes, and almost 300 by barrage balloons."

[schnitzel2k3]

Sounds like my ol' VW before I sold it.

[doodman123451]

those things are crazy ben around when one was fired

[st8oftheart]

How many pounds of thrust would this particular pulse engine have?

[bjorn2run]

I heard one of these beasts live. The poster is correct. There is no describing the sound. If Hell has a sound, it sounds like this.

[Prublixa]

Well it beats these valveless blow lamps !!

[dmnchi]

no only do they cause a big boom during impact, but it also breaks the eardrums of its enemies along its way !

the Germans were sure smart!

[Sidewinder9877]

Damn that thing is nasty!

[celtic5yamum]

EAR RAPE!!!!

... suppose that could be the same for the allied troops at the time... just before the V1 hits the ground... :| what a way to go

[dx80cruiser]

Boring, the Germans did this 65 years ago :)

[ChoonDSW]

a little advice to the camera man.

Muffle the camcorders mic with foam or similar.

or

Decrease the input level of the mic if the option is available

ALL WE CAN HEAR IS ABSOLUTE DISTORTION, which is a shame because i would really like to hear the sound characteristics.

[schicktd]

is that engine to scale...The Nazi flying buzz bomb...V1?

[douro20]

@schicktd

Yes, this engine is to scale. This is an engine made by Ford for a prototype of an American flying bomb called the JB-2.  It is a nearly exact replica of the pulsejet engine which powered the V-1.

[kolbpilot]

@schicktd Engine manufactured by Ford, airframe by Republic. Original V1: Engine by Argus, airframe by Fieseler.

[demonofrazgriz333]

@pipzipcip2000 1. it really doesn't need it, pulse jetscan't be made fuel eficient. they burn clean, but they burn alot.

2> here you are talking about buildin a turbojet, a very different typ of engine. look them up, search "turbocharger jet engine"

3.linking two engines in a series is not advisable. if you are building aturbojet however, you might use an afturburner, wich is essentially a ramjet engine atatched to the exaust of your turbojet. hoever, these do not work with pulse jets!

[kolbpilot]

I always thought that the pulse jet engine had to be moving forward to operate. Obviously I am mistaken. That had to be a sound to anyone who heard it back in the day, would never forget. One of a kind.

[angusandleigh]

@kolbpilot I believe that the valveless ones require air to be forced into them to run, but the valved ones (like this one) create the air flow by drawing in the air after the valves open following combustion. Closed valves force the expansion of combustion out the open back end and this flow creates a vacuum in the combustion chamber which then opens the valves (like the reeds on a 2 cycle engine do) drawing in air to and fuel starting the cycle over again..

[demonofrazgriz333]

@angusandleigh no, they only use compressed air to start. they all (all pulsejets, anyhow) run on thermodynamic cycles of low-high pressure waves to "breath".

[angusandleigh]

@demonofrazgriz333 Thanks for the information, I stand corrected... either way a wild sounding machine :)

[demonofrazgriz333]

@angusandleigh my pleasure.

[demonofrazgriz333]

@kolbpilot no, those are ramjets or scramjets, the much simple coousins of the pulsejet.

[koolpulsejet]

Whaha I like the sound of the echo!!
