Hi Miuge,
Yea hopefully the turbo will work.
Regarding the casting....every surface will be machined on lathe except the ones between the wedges.,.. They will be hand filed or using a small hand drill fitted with small grinder depending on what gives better results...
Cheers.

Hi Miuge,
It was discouraging...LoL I know its very rough but i had already kept everything on the plus side so that i can grind it afterwards...
Moreover you wont imagine how milling was to cost me a good fortune so in order to fit it in a budget i had to do that...
All the surfaces are to machined... Thanks Miuge.
MOREOVER any tips from anybody are most welcome.

Castings arrived today... Though the surface was very grainy and rough but there are enough clearances already to machine the part for the exact dimensions and finish... Cheers, Patty

Thanks John,
I will get back to you with the exact number...
Cheer, Patty

Hi guys,
Needed to decide what is the design mass flow of the engine and the throat area neede for the turbine NGV....
Can anybody help me out calculating those or just describe the method..?
Any tips are welcome..
Thanks, Madpatty

So for the time the diffuser will take to complete i am thinking of starting the work on Turbine Plate...
After conversation with Racket i came to know that there are many variables to determine before choosing the NGV angle and number of vanes...
CAN anybody brief a bit on what all i need to do before starting the NGV section...
How could i calculate those variables...any tips?
Thanks, Patty

Casting the diffuser plate can also be one of the options... This will reduce the amount of machining that will need to be finally done.. Prepared the wooden pattern ready for the casting process... Removing the material for axial portion of the diffuser... And The Final piece Cheers.

Today i fabricated the diffuser plate for internal components... Wedges are yet to be milled... All the components(thrust plate, oil slinger etc) will be placed in these grooves... The shaft tunnel will contain both jouranl bearings and a thrust collar... Cheers.

Today i did a rough drawing of the proposed compressor diffuser.... Diffuser angle 20 degrees... 15 wedges... Diffuser start diameter 88mm (compressor exducer was 83mm) I read it somewhere here that a compromise ratio for vaneless space to be kept is 1.06 (d2/d1 in drawing) Diffuser to elbow in chamber 134mm Total OD 162 mm... Cheers.

More or less its with me...
Or i should say its the largest one readily available with all internal components so thats why i have decided to use it....

Hi Johansson,
Finally got the guts to start building with such a little experience of such an engine....
Don't think if anything could be done of the small turbine...
Still suggestions are welcome....
Cheers.

Hi everyone,
Couple of days ago this idea originated of building a jet engine with an Annular Combustion Chamber of design same as 10/98 and TV94 engines already built by cool experts here...
So finally started it today after acquiring some basic details from Johansson and John rearding the same....
This project will be a small one as compared to TV94 engine and will be solely based on the parts readily available near me... Moreover this is my first project and i havent got any experience of high tech CNC milling etc.(wtf manual milling is costly here)
Engine will be build around Holset HX35 turbine and compressor with the use of standard components and journal bearings...
Few details on the turbine and compressor are as follows:- COMPRESSOR inducer- 54 mm Exducer-83 mm Tip height- 4.90mm
TURBINE inducer- 70 mm Exducer- 58mm Shaft overall length- 173.5mm
Moreover i will try to fastrack the project and updates...

YES, i understand john but the hydraulic unit i have gives me 100 bar pressure,that is with hydraulic oil ofcourse,i dont tested it with jetfuel yet but i think it should be around 100 bar+- 10-20 bar maybe, i dont know really but it should be enough, you think i should add a pressure relief valve in there John? cheers/stephan Hi Stoffe64, I too once used a hydraulic pump capable of 2200 psi with the hydraulic oil for pumping diesel in my turbojet project... BUT once i tested that pump with diesel the pressure got reduced to JUST 160 psi at same power settings.... ? All the above tests were done with that pump coupled to 1 HP motor.... Cheers, Madpatty

Hi Miuge,
What are the fuel pump details you are using for diesel??
What are the fuel Pressures you are running?
Cheers, Madpatty
