Because there's no better place to test a pulse jet engine.

@BankaiIchigo12345 you can run them off of propane,butane,alcohol,gas,pro
pane,and many other fuels that are liquid or a gas (state of matter not fuel used in cars) but propane is the most used it is easy and cheap to use and alcohol is harder to use you need a form of pump and flashback arresters so you don't blow your self up butane can be used but due to the hard to get quality and expensive to it is not used -
go the pulse jet i've have one lol ear muffs everyone 3...2...1... ignition
-
Hydrogen or Acetalene can, when either of these gasses is burned in the presnce of pure oxygen. I thought others might as well, such as propane, or jet fuel?
-
@BankaiIchigo12345 read about them. when they are in the air the air moving by cools them. also metal will hold its form even when white hot. no combustable gas can raise steel to its melting point, you would need coke for that.
-
How do they keep the engine from melting?
Shouldn't it just be red hot, NOT WHITE HOT (indication of overheating)?
-
@BankaiIchigo12345 looks and sounds like a pulse jet to me. which, in that case, NEEDS the hot metal for proper combustion. cooling it makes it inefficient
-
The pink is when it gets to white, as in WHITE HOT. The steel was only maybe a hundred degrees below the melting point. Yes they really were pushing this engine. That is NOT the way to run an engine in flight unless you want the chance of a catestrophic accident.An engine would normally have heat sink attached (such as the body of an aircraft).

@guitgeo These things aren't really that dangerous, I wouldn't stand that close by choice but I wouldn't be particularly worried about being that close.

Wow, somebody up and invented a farting machine...
So that's how a lightsaber works.
