First Pulsejet size???

Post by michael.guzzi » Tue Jan 31, 2012 10:11 am

Hello there, I'm new to the forum, interesting stuff here :wink:

I am planning to make a valved pulsejet, but before I dive into the maths, I want to know: what is easier for a beginner, a small one (dyna-jet-ish) or a big one (1/2 argus), excluding the manufacturing process???

Thanks in advance.

Atom Jet would be a good beginning, for construction, ease of starting and fuel consumption. As you become advanced the fuel system could be modified to yield higher more efficient thrust.

Hope this helps

Thanks for the reply.

I looked through the atom plans, but I found it kinda small. I'll post a project I made as soon as I have it properly detailed in 2D drawings. The idea is to make it with an injection system.

Cheers

Here's the body. All dimensions in inches. I converted them from mm, that's why there's a lot of weird numbers. I would like to know your opinion guys, if this makes any sense or I'm nuts :twisted:

I will post other parts as soon as I get them modeled right.
