  • Terrific work Kari, you are inspirational, I will post your link on HotAirEngineSociety group page if you don't mind, I'm sure many will be impressed by your work! Cheers Michael dV.

  • @mjdevink I thank you for that!

  • Very nice machine! Did You do all by yourself? I guessed about 240 rpm. You can calculate the performance by using this applet.

  • @hdkivela2 Do I get 10kW with 10 bars air then?

  • Are you planning to move to helium next? Just guessing based on an assumption you may want to store your helium in that big pressure tank for re-use. Just keeps getting better and better. Cheers MJdV

  • suuuper!

  • Go, Kari, go! I love it!

  • @Anonymouzor It depends on how much you charge it. 1 bar air gives out about 1 kW. You can calculate how much 10 bar helium gives... :)
