RE: Harrier turbo fan
Lets say your plane weighs 30 lbs... In order to hover you must produce 3 lbs of thrust
at any time for the rool and pitch axis...
Lets say you steel %20 of the mass flow of the bypass flow for the puffer jets...
13N ~ 3 lbs
13N = 0.18kg/sec * 72m/s
72 m/s is around 161 mph... Doesn't sound too fast.. If you use a large ducts
you may get your 3 lbs force...
What I don't know is the pressure behind your bypass fan... A good guess
is around 2 psi.... You may want to test your bed stand with large volumes
of air at 2 psi and see what you get...
One thing is for sure... your valves on the wing tips and tail will need to
be large and fast...
I made a small bedstand with 40 psi and did not get jack for thrust...
Hope this helps..
