Default RE: New test and tune bench for Nano turbines from www.HAB.se


ORIGINAL: frema

Well i can say i knew it along that jetcat is fooling with the egt probe
i measure it too
they made a big mistake in the engine , but that is something different
i can understand that the t25 is much more powerfull because of the completely different chamber , but also the much bigger impellor and turbine
Martin did a very good job , and jetcat has a basic engine
thats how i see it
congrats on the testing , very nice.
ps, i tuned the juniors
2,3 kg is not bad heeee

Regards,
Martin.

Since 'Power = thrust x exhaust gas velocity'- and we're only measuring the thrust here, that alone is not enough to say one turbine is more powerful than another.I agree the exhaust gas velocity on all jets is so fast anyway that thrust is by far the most important factor to focus on, but it's only one component when it comes to 'Power'.

Could the thrust of the T25 and P20 be increased by slightly enlarging the diameter of the exit nozzle? This would decrease the exhaust gas velocity for sure, but would the thrust then not increase too?
