Axial Flow Turbine Engine

Axial Flow Turbine Engine

Specification:

• An aeronautical axial flow gas turbine engine mounted on a stainless steel plinth, suitable for bench mounting. An electronic console and 5L ‘explosafe’ fuel tank are also provided.
• An optional mounting frame is available for floor standing operation.
• The engine has a maximum speed in excess of 100,000 rpm and generates a thrust of at least 195N
• Full instrumentation to measure rpm, thrust and temperature and pressure at each stage of the jet engine.
• Stainless Steel air inlet duct to measure air flow.
• The engine is easy to start, without the need for compressed air.
• The equipment is fully controlled from a user supplied PC. The software includes powerful educational features together with sophisticated graph plotting and data logging capability.
• Interface to the PC is via a single USB interface, thus providing easy installation.

Features:

• Complete aeronautical axial flow gas turbine engine
• Full instrumentation and sensors
• Full control by means of software and microprocessor controller
• Easy installation into a test cell (single USB interface)
• High performance centrifugal compressor
• High maximum RPM
• Fast response to speed changes
• Single point pivot on engine mounting allows accurate thrust measurement
• No need for external lubrication system (the lubricant is mixed with the fuel)
