Pressure Jet Engine Overview and Starting

This is an overview of a small pressure jet prototype, and showing the engine start and run. It is raining while the engine is running, you can hear the engine sputter when it sucks in rain drops. If you are the whiny impatient type that cant wait a few minutes to see the engine run, go cry somewhere else about it and dont bother commenting about how your life was inconvenienced by having to listen to the explanation about the engine.

Thats pretty cool looking. I like the multi stage venturi intake. I noticed when your pressure jet gets going I noticed it makes like a whining sound is that pulsed combustion inside or is it more like a continuous flow? Very interesting and I enjoy watching your vids. My dad a few months back showed me a vid of a jam jar jet and for safety I use a 46 OZ tomato juice can and heet for fuel. Keep up the good work!

In this video of a jet engine go-kart (watch?v=1Di9CbHy4eY ) I asked whether the Gluhareff pressure jet got more or less mileage than a valveless pulsejet of equivalent power, and the reply was that a 20 lbs propane tank lasts 25% longer with this kind of engine than a valveless pulsejet.

have you ever tried touching it? hahahahaha ppppttttsssshhh it wont burn at all

Dude I don't care about fuel economy, does this produce more or less thrust fore a given engine volume.

Please give credit where it is due. This was invented back in the 40's by Eugene Gluhareff, a mastermind in Aeronautics.

im interested. i just looked on ebay i saw no pressure jets. how much thrust does it produce?

excellent... Intro IS MUST b'cause there are tons of retards by attitude. Great work. Whats the thrust btw...

Well, I guess same as first steam engineshad a long way ahead, same these toys show their workability and in smart hands and wise heads can become something more practially useful. Well, same as anything new. Happy New Year!

they are just for fun. they were used for real gliders. they dont have a future because you cant recycle the heatenergy.

how much thrust do you get relative to the weight?

Pressure jets are ...
Pressure jets are nowhere near as efficient as true pulsejets, metal getting hot isnt necessarily wasted energy. When the heat radiates away from the engine, then it is wasted. Stainless is actually a very good insulator, for how brightly it glows, it only radiates a fraction of the energy of mild steel.

Guys, how efficient ...
Guys, how efficient are those engines? I see that on many models metall heats up so fast and is so bright. This is wasted energy. Is there a future of those Engines?

that is cool as shit man..

With the caveat ...
With the caveat that I might be completely wrong, this resembles a ramjet that uses the momentum of the (heated, expanded) fuel to ram the fuel-air mix into the engine instead of relying on the airspeed to do the same. (In other words, it has continuous combustion instead of the pulses in a pulsejet.)

What are the main differences between that and a valveless pulsejet ?

What is there to ...
What is there to elaborate? The Gluhareff Pressure Jet is a ramjet combustor pressurized by the high velocity stream of hot propane mixed with air in a sonically tuned inlet system. It's tuned to NOT oscillate, and at low power it doesn't- the jet produces white noise.  The fact that the engine produces a tone at high power is NOT a part of it's designed operation- it is a FLAW and Gene made many modifications to SUPPRESS that oscillation.

I'm curious, has the regenerative cooling of this design ever caused serious crazing? How bad would it have to be before it would seriously affect the engine?
