Rebuild of an AI-9 APU Gas Turbine Day3 HD
And the final part in my 3 part video
No rushing as I am almost done, an unusual method of tightening bolts but we use what we have. Clean, Clean, Clean don’t miss that step, Engine goes back into its cradle, pipes and wiring harness, and ready for testing which will have to be in another video.
I missed the dry run (False Start) sorry, but ill make up for that in my next one 😊

Rebuild of an AI-9 APU Gas Turbine Day2 HD
Просмотров 3992 месяца назад
Welcome back I am mid-way through the rebuild and all seems pretty good, haven’t lost any parts and assembly looks straight forward (well it does in the video). In this video I am bringing together the combustion chamber, compressor turbo, installing injectors and adding the anti-vibration wire using that special tool that Mumy didn’t tell you about. Remember speed is not the essence, until you...
Rebuild of an AI-9 APU Gas Turbine Day1 HD
Просмотров 5812 месяца назад
I had lots of fun running my AI-9, but now its time to turn my attention to the duff one. Lots of work over the last year and now its time to find all those parts and start the re-assembly. My earlier video striped one down in around 4 hrs (approx. 30 min video) but putting them back together is a little trickier and takes way longer and this project definitely took longer. Once on the bench I ...
SR30 FirstStart
Просмотров 288Год назад
A new engine arrived for me to play with, this is a MiniLab demonstrator SR30 from Turbine Technologies in the US. After a clean up this is the first start of the engine. Although it did not get to speed it is the first step to see weather its a engine worthy of a rebuild ?.

SR30 Jet Engine Start of Testing
Просмотров 3,2 тыс.Год назад
New engine acquired to play with, this things created thrust unlike the APU, some what smaller but still great to play with. This is only a test run as it needs some work. Looks like it has potential, A lot of old fuel came out and had to be moped up so may have blocked injectors, just need to workout how it comes apart ?

The tips of the combustion wheel heat up pretty quickly, this is the danger time as slow starts keep the tips to hot for to long which can damage the blades.
AI-9 (АИ-9) Gas turbine APU NightRun1
Просмотров 318Год назад
Dark Nights help see what's going on, This one was after a false start leaving some fuel in the engine before firing up. What did i get out of doing this ? It turns out the exhaust cowling glows red hot during the initial start before the flame front is drawn back. So not touching that bit when shutting down !!
AI-9 (АИ-9) Gas turbine APU Engine Strip Down
Просмотров 20 тыс.2 года назад
After plenty of trials it is time for a strip down, i need to remove the turbine main shaft and swap with my other engine as im having problems with the Heat protective coatings. I put this together to show it's not too technical pulling them apart, most of the problems come from not having a manual (which are rare) or specialist kit.

After a few mini start-ups things were looking ok. So lets push the envelop? Bad boy No1 The original pressure casing has shapes pressed into it (most likely strengthening ribs) the new one was made out of slightly thicker material but no ribs as i cant reproduce them. Now i know why they are there, allot of pressure builds up in this earlier (turbo pressure area). The casing bent and pushed of...

Second test run, adjusted some of the fuel leaks and checked seals etc, small leak detected from the pressure casing so probably needs a new O-ring. Test seemed to go well but found powder around the air valve and other surfaces. not sure what it is but visually it looks ok. Clean-up and ready for a full test

But this is a DIY project and I'm not relying on it for take-off. Similar to the first engine the burn is from old fuel in the combustion chamber. The engin...

      Oil is delivered by a pump at the base of the engine, the drive is taken from a 90 degree gear off the main shaft, mega RPM ! Oil is then pumped through the bearings, oil is then scavenged back into the front oil tank

      Hi John This APU's are designed for starting the primary engines of Aircraft. It creates massive air pressure which is piped into the primary to spin it up. So run duration is generally around 10 to 15 minuets. Longer would strain the engine or overwhelm the cooling system. I only run them up for short periods just for the sound. my maximum run time has been about 5 minuets.
