bjhines Posted August 21, 2007 Share Posted August 21, 2007 Home made gas turbine engine. I big one. I wonder it it works well enough. The exhaust exits the bottom of the black housings in that pic. The big stainless tube is the flame holder/combustion chamber. The metal scaffolding under it is probably the motor mounting frame. That sucker is big and complex with a very heavy scaffolding to hold it together. That contraption is purly "for the fun of it". Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mario_82_ZXT Posted August 21, 2007 Share Posted August 21, 2007 Home built DIY Turbine engine.. DIY Jet Turbine... Could you build that with any turbine or does it have to be a huge compressor? It just so happens I have a spare T4... Mario Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
