Since you have no combustion occurring, the rear axial turbine wheel then becomes a restriction to pure ambient airflow (no hot gasses to drive the axial wheel). If you remove the rear axial wheel, you will gain thrust from lack of restriction.
My upcoming video is on what you asked for...So subscribe to the channel for more videos....😊😊
this is obviously just a model and not a engine that is supposed to produce any useful thrust.
It's just a detailed model with all its necessary parts.
But I am working on an actual product.
So thanks for watching and don't forget to subscribe 😊😊😊😊

I think it's sort of funny that you went through all this effort to build a "mini jet engines" with all the complete internals of a real one just to power to off an electric motor.
And plastic so would melt if really worked
yes and no he could print it with filament charged withe metalic powder or send file in order to print it on laser + sintering machine or tig robot ... lot of option
Mech ninja do you share stl or catpart / catproduct ? (i am a cat v5 user since a long time ;) )
@@antoninperbosc1532 3d printed metal cant handle the 100K to 200K RPM these jet engines make
Please you are contact number
You are Instagram ID
thank you for adding the STL compressor folder
total thrust how how much giving?? 20kg?
No sir it's a model....and 20 kg is too much thrust. We can generate it without internal combustion method...
Thankyou for watching the video and don't forget to subscribe 😊😊😊😊
Awesome , perfect teaching tool for simple education, all the combustion chambers are so cool the idea should be shared . This type education has been taken from our youth , TIME FOR CHANGE? Time for accountability in world POLITICS ..... Father in Heaven loves you and so do I !

🔵 There are no "Combustion Chambers" in this 'Ducted fan' device.
@@joshhayl7459 yes it's a model... I am working on the combustion one....😊
WOW Jet Engine without fuel pipes, also plastic turbine and combustion chamber, Soo?? basically its a expensive and inefficient fan. isn't it ?
Yeah It's an electric jet engine or we can say a turbo ban. But no, it isn't inefficient.... it's just a one of the beginning prototype of my upcoming projects...😊
Fan jet, looks really good though, well done.
@@MechNinja It is not a jet engine (aka turbine) because there is no combustion happening with your design. Your design is a Duct fan motor. There is no such thing as an electric jet engine
@@ferce889 unless you count the recent studies on using plasma as a propulsion but nothing large scale has been able to have been made yet so we’ll see, I’m sure he has something in mind that would better fit the description of jet engine but right now he’s just testing geometries so of course he’s not gonna waste metal making prototypes and combusting them, and just because it has an electric motor doesn’t mean it can’t be a combustion turbine, all turbine engines have an electric drive motor to pull air through the intake when it starts and once the jet starts producing thrust, it will take over the job of spinning the turbine via the second turbine on the back, so in all ways is this a model for a jet engine, I’m sure he’s just testing geometries before he makes a legit one
@@daystocomeofficial2658 That seems to change nothing. I'm being nitpicky but unless there is combustion its just a duct fan right?. That piece of plastic cannot be a combustion motor...at least not for long because it will become destroyed from the heat.....If he had put "Jet engine model" or something then that would be accurate to me
Wow you are so smart and I love the disine

🔵 This is OBVIOUSLY NOT a "JET"-engine!
..... It is a 'Ducted-fan'.
no. eso no genera ningun empuje.
@@pokopiko1439,
🔵 Definition of a 'Jet' engine: "Any of a class of internal-combustion engines that propel aircraft by means of the rearward discharge of a jet of fluid, usually hot exhaust gases generated by burning fuel with air drawn in from the atmosphere".
Therefore, by definition, it is NOT a "Jet" engine.
My previous statement stands.

Have you measured the thrust that the fan generates? It would be interesting to see what numbers your model outputs!
Bro it's just a model.....but my next video is on a electric ducted fan...So subscribe the channel for more videos.....
@@MechNinja even a model will have compression ... and knowing what that is will also allow you to check the thermal needs of the turbine blades against pressure heating ... and it will allow you to refine the compressor section to give a better result when you actually desing and build a jet engine and not just assemble a printed copy of an off the shelf engine
How really have a great content

Interesting video 👍
Thankyou... Subscribe for more videos...😊
This is very interesting, if you calibrate the main rod and add some better bearing for a smooth rotation you will get more efficiency. I suggest you make a video where you 3d print a 12 blade edf and add a afterburner with it. It will have so many practical applications.
Anyway this is a amazing video, keep going

Hey
I was trying to make a jet engine for my rc plane
will this work with proper airflow
here on the US these are quite expensive
Hii there...i would like to tell you that this jet engine is a model of the actual mini RC jet engine.
This has a thrust but it will not be suitable for your requirements.
You can watch my other EDF videos which has a high thrust
@@MechNinja hmm
do you have any actual jet engine videos where fuel is used
No sir not now....But i will make one in my upcoming videos
Very nice ❗❗❗👏
Hi, nice project, I would like to do it too but I don't know
where can i find the metal compressor?
Though it can be found online. But If you won't then I can design one for you ( dm me ). And rest other files you can download it from the website www.themechninja.com
Thankyou have a nice day and pls subscribe the channel for more videos...😊
Hello, I was going to post this on your website, but every time I try, it says error, please try again later. SO here I am.
I bought the g code files of the jet engine, and when I went to print them, they all worked fine except parts 9, 10, 11, 12, and 7. Whenever I tried to print these files, my printer would start, and then about 5-10 minutes into the print job, would stop, give me an alarm, and give me a kill reason. "Thermal runaway. Restart required."
It isn't doing this with any of the other prints that my printer is working on, is it a translation error maybe?
If there is a thermal runway...that means there is a fault in printer not in the file. But no need to worry. Just check the thermistor connection and check for any loose wire of thermistor or heating cartridge. Then it will work fine.
And you can just mail us your problems at themechninja@gmail.com
And also keep me updated about this problem.
Sir please tell me where you purchase the metal compressor wheel 🙏🙏🙏 please tell me
I have purchased it from Ali express, but now they are not shipping to India....😐...But i have given the file of compressor for 3D printing in the description....
@@MechNinjabut sir I😌 don't have any 3d printer😩
If you want then we can ship the full body or compressor to you ?
Very nice bro.are you Indian
Thanks bro....and yes....🇮🇳😍
this isn't a jet engine its simply a over complicated fan
This is a mini jet engine model 😊
Where can you find the model for the impeller? Or a link to the part be found?
You can get it in mini jet engine file
@@MechNinja I bought that and there was no impeller file in there. On the other page it says that the impeller and the rod are not included in the files, but I don't know where to find the exact impeller you used
so how much thrust ? thanks (sorry I don't listen to English well, if it mentioned in the video)

What happens if you use a 1097 gearbox 3d printed with this turbine as power
one complaint. I'm overly tired of the same music being used repeatedly on almost all videos😑
Apart from that, video is informative and awsome. dropped a like

How to use Android app
And software rc plan make part for example wing.plan body please inform me I don't have ide which one best app for Android any best software please, thank you
Hii there. For Rc plane software...watch this video ruclips.net/video/GT1zWiaNFdo/видео.html
In the above video perform all the process. The only change you need to do is while choosing the Quadcopter mode, select the RC plane mode. Than the firmware in your pixhawk will be of RC plane. And there is so many apps like Q ground controll, mission planner etc. Download both the app and then select according to its user interface.
Hope you get it and comment if you need any help

I'm looking videos but I'm saying RC airplane example for boing 787 and boing747 jet how to use best software is best
If you are asking for designing software for RC plane....then you can ho with solid works and CATIA. But prefer CATIA as the surface modelling feature is really great in CATIA.
If you are asking of any other software then let me know...😊😊
Aapne metal ka compressor wheel kahan se kharida🙏🙏🙏 please tell me

U r welcome....😊😊😊😊
Couldn’t you heat the air internally with a coil, like in a hair dryer? (Obviously not so hot that it melts)
Yes I can but that works in actual working prototype but not here.
Because preheating the air increase the efficiency as it helps in easily mixing of air with fuel and thus results in stable combustion.
Hope you understand.... Thankyou
And subscribe the channel for more videos....😊
@@MechNinja oh i see, thank you for responding
Subscribe the channel for more videos....Thank you
Compressing the air as it moves through other stages would also heat the air too. However, that adds rotating mass and complexity. With enough stages, the heat generated could possibly get PLA in the glass temperatures. Basically the point where it loses shape and structural integrity.
Yes you are right. That multi stage compression increase the air temperature...
What is the best printer for this and what filament do I need to use for projects like these
You can use any printer to print it. I have used Ender 3 Pro for it. And I have used PLA Material for it.
Really useless... Without real fuel injection and combustion, it's absolutely making no sense to use a compressor and all that mass.
Simple propeller would be way more effective.
Thank you! Someone should say it. He hold the engine with three finger and i cant figure out how he think this ever would drive a plane.
But whats the point? A propeller on the motor would have produced more thrust.
It's Just a model. I am working on a prototype of it. Till then you can watch my ducted fan videos.
And don't forget to subscribe....😊😊
how much this 3D print would costs
Dm me at themechninja@gmail.com
Interesting stuff. You should print out a mounting rail and put a scale on it to measure the thrust.

Where to find the motor you used in the video?
Its a 2400 kv brushless motor used in RC cars and boats. You can easily find it on amazon.
I think your brushless motor is undersized for such a big impeller. But very nice model ;]

@@MechNinja waw..thanks mayn👍👍👍👍👍
Great model, but if it was printed with metal sintering instead of plastic you could have a fully operational jet engine
Yes bro....But Direct Metal Laser Sintering (DMLS) is a costly process.....:-)
Questions
Will the brushless motor consume more energy when placed in the turbine than it would if you just use it without the turbine??
Yes definitely the brushless motor will consume more energy in turbine...because in turbine it will have to rotate a big load thus increasing the current consumption...
But using a propeller...it will consume less current because of less load
@Mech Ninja great
Thanks
The propeller with motor (1) produces less energy consumption compared to the same motor connected to the shaft of a turbine (2). I get it
The question is as follows, case scenario (2) will consume more amps but will Travel faster and a longer range distance than case Scenario (1) that has propeller and a motor????
@@franciscoe.9989 Actually in mini jet turbine engine, the brushless motor is only used to start the turbine and the energy is produced by fuel combustion.
And in propeller configuration, the thrust is produced by propeller itself....
Thus we can't compare both of them.
How much thrust in kg does it have?
Not done the thrust test...but you can check my video of electric ducted fan as I have done the thrust test for it
It would be great if we can apply CFD analysis on this. It would be fun.
Great too see people like you taking interest...😊😊 I can do a CFD analysis but that will consume a lot of time and skills and will increase video length.....
And also it would not be efficient to perform a CFD analysis of a plastic model.
When I will replicate the actual model..then I will perform it....😊😊
Thanks for watching it. Like , share and subscribe for more videos like this ...😊😊😊
@@MechNinja but we will learn a lot, people like you are a great blessing who share there skills. However i am very interested in CFD and want to improve my skill but i am not financially strong to learn such skills on self finance so i refer RUclips to learn such skills.
@@MechNinja you have a CFD fo fluids directly in your catia ? or you use aa other software as openfoam and co ? because catia is good for fem or static analyse but require dificult to find plugin to have a good result ... exemple i was never ba able to find speos to calculate real lens / optical ray tracing to simulate optics.
Nice video! I’m rlly interested in what would happen if you somehow put real fuel in there. Maybe it would run for a few seconds🤷♂️👍
😅😅😅 yes it would run for a few seconds before melting down.......😅😅😅...But I will make it run one day....😅😅
@@MechNinja You could maybe print a smaller one and melt it 😂
@@jakubsedlacek4278 ok I will....😅😅
@@MechNinja hahah I’m looking forward to that bro👍
Negative - it would not run at all. It would turn on motor power but other than that it would just get wet and sticky perhaps the fuel would ignite but not under pressure and certainly not produce any thrust

Everything is working fine.... check it out ....
What if Flitetest/PeterStripol use this mini jet engine
Yes they can...but it's a model and not an working prototype. Though it has all the necessary parts to work but the problem is its power generation process. Generally these engines are started from the electric motor and then the further process is carried out by internal combustion. But in this model the power is generated by electric motor and hence all other parts acts as a dead weight.
You can check my other videos of EDF.

Why would you need a separate compressor section if this is an electric ducted fan? Did you print a kerosene turbine by mistake?

hey, curious, Do you have the 3d model for the compressor side turbine of the engine? if not, do you have a part you can point me to to get it? it seems to be missing from the stl files.
that and the compressor side stator

Cad model link is not working
Bro the website is currently updating so the server is down....it will be back on track soon
So it's basically a bucket & a fan. A weak plastic centrifugal vacuum cleaner. That cheap motor will burn out or wires will get too hot or damage the esc trying to turn that long shaft. Nice design but pointless as a ducted fan would be lighter & far more efficient.
Hi, what kind of software you use to draw?
