    The angry sound while the CNC is removing material is due to the long length of the bit causing chatter. If your end mill is further into the collet, it should help. I’m not sure if you’re manually putting in feeds/speeds or if the CNC is calculating it, but it could also be that you need a higher or lower spindle RPM or feed rate. Hope this helps in the future!

    Couple of things I noticed (potential video idea?)
    1) try injecting the fuel at the front (nearest the fan) of the flame tube, so it has a better chance of lighting and staying lit. I saw a lot of unburned fuel was just hanging around inside the engine.
    2) Jet engines actually do use "normal" fans, but have multiple stages (decreasing in size) to compress the air more

    • @TheOriginalEviltech
      @TheOriginalEviltech 2 года назад +13

      Those normal fans are not normal at all. They have a rotor and a stator assembly which generates pulsed pressurized air. That's why they are called compressors and that's why they have lots of stages - the flow is constantly redirected to enter the next compressor fan at an optimal angle to be forced down the next stator and rise in pressure. So much so that the fuel spontaneously ignites from the heat the compressed air acquired in the process. You also need a larger exhaust than the combustion chamber intake because JET engines are a constant pressure engine - the process of burning the fuel goes in to expanding the gasses, not increasing pressure to push on a piston. The thrust comes from the larger area the same pressure is pushing at. The higher the compression ratio of the compressor - the more effective is the engine.

    • @blechnik
      @blechnik 2 года назад

      i thought the same thing with the compressors, but he is somehow right, small model jet engines mostly use centrifugal compressors to create enough pressure for the rest of the engine.
      he could just use a radial compressor design for example from grabcad. the main problem for most small compressors is they require lots and lots of rpm to work efficiently.... i hope his motor can reach at least 60.000rpm

    • @johnycakes6613
      @johnycakes6613 2 года назад +4

      Big difference here is that the intake fan and compressors are drive by a turbine at the end and is self driven. Not by and electric motor. He would have to make the compressor and shaft out of aluminum and balance it properly given his current setup.

      @@Guy_Reverse Wrap it around part of the combustion chamber, stepping up the diameter of the tubing after the coil to allow for some expansion and to encourage gas to be forced out through the burner ring. Another modification that would be a good idea would be forming the burner in to a fully connected ring with two to three fuel supply lines to it, all of the same length, and with minimal bends. This would give each hole the same pressure and the same possible volume of fuel supply, evening out the shape of the flame to increase the efficiency of the combustion. More efficient combustion makes a more stabile engine and a more powerful engine that is more fuel efficient.

      ​@@jonspeidel​I do the same thing... cutting Aluminum on a small machine. Using the right process ends up going faster because you're cutting correctly. You'll break fewer endmills & spend less time cleaning up parts. You can buy a cheap 10-pack of them for $20 from amazon. A way to tell if you're cutting or rubbing is to feel the temperature of the piece your cutting. If it's hot, you're rubbing the metal off, not cutting it. Some of what I could see in the video I see signs it wasn't cutting, it was just rubbing.
      Also drilling is your friend on a small machine. Drillings material removal rate is much faster then milling, and you're doing a lot less plunge cutting.

      @@jack-bjorn Put the engine on wheels and use a fish scale -- that'll work pretty well. Integza is on a good path -- if the fan can handle higher static pressures, then that fan can keep blowing air into the combustion chamber and you can get more thrust out of it. EDF's don't like high pressures (more of a total moving mass thing), so using that as an afterburner is fraught with problems (not enough "push" to get he flame to move the right way). It's why jet engines have lots of blades and why those who like to make "homebrew" jet engines usually start playing games with turbochargers (centrifugal fans can make more pressure -- figure "pressure" is roughly "n blades x blade width x speed"). You can get 3-5x the "fan thrust" with an afterburner but you really gotta pay attention to the design (hence the variable diameter concentrators on fighter jets).
      Hey Integza, if you want a higher-static fan that's commercial, look for squirrel cage blower fans -- commonly found in vacuum cleaners, and fireplace box fans. You'll need to look at the flame holder better too -- it's not holding it well enough... The best part about vacuum cleaner fans is that you can usually mount them in 100mm PVC pipe or so and you get a combination fan and gyroscope (you'll see what I mean -- universal motors for high speed so... yeah). Control the speed with a "router speed control" box. If you do it right (220v vacuum), you might be able to get 12-15KW out of it thrust-wise.
      And you can make an oil burner out of it and do lost-pla casting. But try to do that outside... molten metal doesn't like attics (err... attics don't like molten metal... the metal doesn't care). Heat-wise, you can get ~20-50KW or more (check out the OilBurner or MyFordGuy's channels).
      And get used to running the fan for a while before and after a test run.... go look at the guy who's running RC Jet engines on different fuels and you'll see that their "controller" has "starting...preheat...operating...cooling...shutdown" -- jets hate "sudden moves" except for rapid unscheduled disassembly (ka-boom).

    Add coolant to your CNC (mixture of oil and water) extra lubrification really helps with the excessive noise and allows removed material to get out of the way resulting in less vibration thus less noise and a prettier finish. Wd40 works too, if you're not in the mood to mix water and oil

    I do a lot of aluminum machining, there are two thing I think you can do that will help. Only have the cutter sticking out as long as you need, if you reduce that the cutter won’t chatter as much. I also looked like you are cutting the aluminum dry, aluminum needs some kind of lubricant when cutting. Even a couple squirts of WD40 will help a lot.

      @triphonikstudio 2 года назад +2

      @@ericgoldman7533 when it comes to aluminum, it has a tendency to want to stick to the cutter. Cutting oil or CNC coolant prevents a lot of that. To say feeds and speeds is a deep rabbit hole would be an understatement. There is a LOT of variables like how many flutes the cutter has, the angle of flute, if the cutter is carbide, if it has a coating like ZrN (AlTiN is not advisable for aluminum since the coating contains same element as the material and can bond). Rigidity of the cutter in the holder...on and on.
      I really enjoyed this video a lot, when he was doing the milling - my heart hurt a little because I was thinking, choke up on the cutter a bit more and give it a little squirt of WD and you’ll love it.
      There is certainly an art to CNC milling, I use SolidWorks to design my parts, BobCad to generate G-Code, my Fadal VMC has expanded memory, converted for WIFI, new inverter, new 10Krpm spindle, blah blah blah. My mentor has a much older and primitive machine and he uses MasterCam on an old Windows 95 pc. A lot of the time, I can’t keep up with him- but that is +30 years more experience than me.
      If you ever watch Titans of CNC, Titan talks about working your way up to the fast and aggressive cuts. I tend to stay on the very conservative side until I’ve got a proven program (no crashes)- then if I have to do a lot of the same part, I’ll tune the S&F until I hit the limits.

      However, if there is anything hot enough to qualify as an ignition source in the path of the gas, pure 02 will *find something to burn*, and uncontrolled O2 fires are terrifying. So, yeah, even though it doesn't work as an afterburner, handling oxygen in the presence of heat/spark/flame is extremely dangerous.

    Brings back lots of good memories from my FliteTest days. How much current is the glowplug drawing? I like that solution better than the stun gun I used. One of those "arc electric lighters" might be an alternative?
    A simple solution to heating the gas is to have the fuel line bent in a spiral that goes through the flame. You can kind of see it in this video: ruclips.net/video/-ZROI-QFjDg/видео.html
    A problem I had was the flame tube being too short which let too much turbulent air into the flame zone which snuffed out the flame. The glowplug solution is also fantastic as it would reignite the fuel after a flameout.

    Sling the fuel line around the glow plug to preheat the fuel and ignite the fuel further in the chamber to generate more pressure. The fan needs a little concave shape on the duct to accelerate air speed and pressure.

    • @emptyforrest
      @emptyforrest 2 года назад

      yhea i thought about that too. a chamber for the fuel to expand, might also be worth placing the fuel dispersion behind the ignition point instead of in front that way the airspeed from the fan will help to disperse the fuel and create a better fuel to air mixture. i also think he isnt getting enough fuel into the engine, this can be seen when he's increasing the fan speed and the flame dies out.

    • @ApfelBirneKreis
      @ApfelBirneKreis 2 года назад

      ​ @emptyforrest Exactly! The flame tube should consist of two tubes . the outer one should have larger holes to disperse the fuel. the inner one should contain the preheat fuel line which should then disperse the fuel in the outer chanber. But that may produce some overheating problems i´m not entirely sure about that.

    As a diesel tech of 15 years, I'd like to see a video on scavenging and the venturi effect. There is a small gap of time as the piston moves down on the intake stroke where the exhaust valve is open, and the fresh air moving in past the intake valve creates a scavenging effect on the exhaust moving out. You also will find a venturi on the exhaust pipe itself that seemingly creates power out of thin air, and I think I understand how it works but it would be awesome to do a video on why!

      He is burning fuel rich but that’s in part due to how his intake is design (centrifugal was a poor replacement) and too much fuel input. It not only starved the flame of oxygen but iced the tubes which restricted fuel flow only for it to then heat up due to lack of flow and ice melt and so the cycle went. Orange flames and the smell mentioned should have clued him into this issue. He needs better fuel control, better air intake fan design, and a section of the fuel coil in the path of the flame to preheat it. All of this would help prevent those issue

    The only thing wrong with it was that you were using a butane can by itself as your fuel source. You have to regulate your fuel source. If you get a butane torch. Take it apart and remove the striker. Fill your torch rezivior with the butane can. Then you'll be able to use your Servo to jog the valve stem that opens and closes the gas flow to the torch head. The torch head will restrict the flow so that all of the liquid butane will exit as a vapor. The can upside down delivers a combination of liquid and vapor because it has such a big hole to exit. This is why you Ran out of fuel so fast. Using the torch the fuel comes out in a fine mist and vapor which will be way more efficient. You could have done the entire video and only used a half of a can of butane just by running it through the torch as a regulator. Try it. I guarantee you will get a roaring afterburner just by regulating the gas. Cost you 10-15 bucks for a good Large refillable butane torch. 👍😏

    This was awesome. The overall assembly is also asthetically pleasing so it was nice that it didn't completely destroy itself in the end.

    Try to compress the fuel air mixture before ignition and try to reduce the fuel amount. I can see red flames and that means that the mixture is rich in fuel and the combustion is not efficient. In addition try to use the glow plug after the fuel injector because after ignition the flames will keep the high temp in the glow plug so you can turn off the power (see ethanol 2-stroke engines)
