I am looking for a turbine engine strictly for bench running, I would like to use it for educational purposes. Can anyone link me to a reasonably priced turbine combo for this situation?



Thanks

How much do you want to spend?

I know of a couple of fellows that have 'Moores' engines (made in Canada) for sale but not advertised, one is brand new and one has 4 flights.....these engines are going pretty cheap these days on the used market.....not sure on the price but maybe around $1000 Cdn.($850.00 USD) or so. (including pump, TCU, TDU, etc)

If interested send me a PM and I can talk to the 2 fellows and see where they stand right now on selling their engines.

Contact Joe at Proctor, he has a RAM he wants to sell.

$850, there or abouts.

Hi
Some items to consider when buying a turbine for display and teaching purposes are the benefits of having a FADEC ECU rather that just a simple speed controller for the pump supplying the fuel to the turbine on the stand. The software link allows a direct link to a laptop or PC for display while it is running and being able to hold actual running data parameters EG temp, rpm, etc, etc. for the previous 52 minutes for review.
check it out and try this software http://www.espiell.com/users1.htm
I've help source previously for two educationalists but your budget might be a little tight. If you only want the very basic system it will be possible.
