RE: Tailpipe in can!

Hello guys:D

Do not thing i am crazy guys [:'(] Just give me respect i speak 3 languages and you?
This really work the can start to mealt at 1000 degrees celsius!:)
Your tailpipe from the turbine do not pass the 700 degrees celsius and the air coming out is around 400 degrees celcius that for the inner pipe the outside pipe is even cold.Most turbine shut it self if it pass the 730 degrees celsius:)
The can is most made from stainless for the outside and inside and the seal all both end are made of steal.
If you thing is dangerous do not use this ideal;)

See you tonext time![8D]

A fellow jetpilot here in Norway has been using a steel vegetable can as a tailpipe for his scratch built Vampire with a P-80 for about 6 years and hundreds of flights. Works great! On the Vampire, the pipe is only about 10 cm. long and the veggie can was a perfect fit.

There's no reason why cans wouldn't work well. But most are tin coated and not stainless so they may start to rust if left to the elements. Of course the temper could change over time, same as stainless.

I don't think the number of languages anyone speaks makes any difference here... I however do speak two though so you may be smarter than me. [&:] I just think that people think it's kind of hair-brained, which is fine because it's not 'conventional'. But who cares? If it works, sweet! I give you credit though, I never would have thought of it. Let's see some pics of the dual-wall pipe! [sm=thumbup.gif]
