No need to "block quote" me when my post is right above yours, mate.
I hope to learn that Thunderlite is self-sustaining within the next 24 hours; fingers crossed.
Once this milestone is nailed, or even if not, a direct to combustor injection test is next up.
Cheers,
M.

Re: Direct to combustor injection
Anders, It was not, and is not, my intention to stop you from doing anything. I was merely sharing an interesting development with you, and pointing out that it may eventually work to your advantage. As Thunderlite has been cut in two and is awaiting surgery, the smart money is on continuing with yo...

Re: The plot thickens
Hello Simon, It was meant in the nicest possible way. I should have known. And thanks for the ice cream! :wink: "Remote debugging" is a really hard thing to do. Indeed it is. :( Presently, I am remotely debugging a pulsejet that is only(!) 11,000 km distant. Trouble is, the dims reported back to me ...

Direct to combustor injection
Hola Joe! I sized the liquid system throughput at 1400 ml/min (ca. 22 gph ; gasoline). Quite by accident, we may soon have direct experimental evidence that Thunderchine will support direct to combustor injection , ie., we can bypass the intakes for fueling. This development may simplify the fuel de...

Larry, Attempting (perhaps vainl y ) to get back on track: The villainy ! :wink: Well, when I wrote it I just meant something that would be better than the slight flare... I will endeavor to pull a practical, performance-oriented tailpipe out of my, ahem..." hat ". No worries, Evil M.

Re: The plot thickens
Hello Simon, And sometimes comes with a Cadbury's Flake in it. Now there's a well-defined short cone we can all agree on! Yum! :D M, you continue to astound me with your ability to pull a set of parameters "out of your hat". Not knowing how you meant this, and not wanting to know if it's not nice, I...

Re: Free plans
. This one million pound pulse-jet engine will push any vehicle, building, mountain or planet. Most impressive. :twisted: Now, I am not saying that it will run as drawn, but by ignoring any combustion instabilities that come along with its ginormous size , then I can easily provide you the maximum ...

Hello Anders,
Btw., a new "Thunderlite" pulsejet will soon be roaring to life...

Larry and Greg, My initial rushed and faulty design cost at least a full day of effort for you, and probably a good day for M, too.

Re: Pulso art, Chile style!
Hejsan Anders! Anything new to report from the northern lands? Try to explain to the lady that the rusty piece of metal you put in the bookshelf while she was away in fact is an art installation. True. But that's what the "rusty rebar" is for: vertical support, ie., elevate the pieces; the free ends...
