Afterburner Fuel System Posted by: AgentJayZ
Video duration: 303 seconds What puts the fuel into the afterburner section of the J79 turbojet? We examine one of the 21 fuel spraybars that inject fuel at over 250psi into the jetstream. We then install it and make the connections to the four separate fuel manifolds that work togather to deliver 50 gallons per minute to the ring of spraybars when the engine is in Max AB. |

Jet Engine ID info Posted by: AgentJayZ
Video duration: 134 seconds Let's take a look at our Italian Starfighter engine: The data plate on a jet engine is much like a VIN number plate, only it's easier to make sense of... sort of... |

Compressors - Turbine Engines: A Closer Look Posted by: AgentJayZ
Video duration: 468 seconds Lets look around inside the compressors of a few different turbine engines. How does it all fit together, where does the air go, and how does it work ? |

Orenda 14 Part 3: Reassembly Posted by: AgentJayZ
Video duration: 842 seconds Now that the thrust bearings have been replaced, we put this fighter jet engine back together. I hope you find the details interesting. |
 |
the Thrust Bearing: what holds it in? Posted by: AgentJayZ
Video duration: 633 seconds I try to show how the thrust bearing is attached to the engine cases and the rotor of the J79 / LM1500 gas turbine engine. Some whiteboard drawing, some real parts, and hopefully some detailed discussion of the thrust bearing installation in the engine we work on all the time here at S&S Turbines. |

Orenda 14: A Look Inside 2 Posted by: AgentJayZ
Video duration: 874 seconds Continuing on from where we left off last week,we gain access to and replace the main thrust bearing of this engine. |
 |
Turbine Engine: Flight vs Industrial Posted by: AgentJayZ
Video duration: 748 seconds We test a fresh GE LM1500, and compare it directly to the fighter jet engine from which it is derived - the J79. |

Jet Nozzle Test - Turbine Engines: A Closer Look Posted by: AgentJayZ
Video duration: 460 seconds Torch ignitor, and then variable nozzle actuation testing for an afterburner-equipped J79 turbojet used to power a military fighter aircraft. |
 |
Jet Engine Lube System Posted by: AgentJayZ
Video duration: 1386 seconds A look at the components of a typical jet engine lube system, and a simplified explanation of how they all work together. We use examples of each component from several different engines, and we go through some hand-made diagrams... |

The Diffuser - Turbine Engines: A Closer Look Posted by: AgentJayZ
Video duration: 392 seconds We look at what a diffuser is and I try to explain the way it works in a jet engine. If it seems to not make sense... search for Bernoulli and his equations. |
 |
The Engine Test Stand Posted by: AgentJayZ
Video duration: 391 seconds How do we hold back the power of a jet engine when we test it ? A look at the framework and equipment we will be using for the upcoming test of an engine taken from an F104 Starfighter - complete with afterburner. |
 |
Jet Tools: Race Puller Posted by: AgentJayZ
Video duration: 539 seconds A demonstration of how to remove a turbine shaft bearing without damaging it. We use a hydraulic actuator along with a specialized puller tool designed to grip the bearing race. No tools or parts were harmed in the making of this video. |

Turbofan Parts Donor 3 Posted by: AgentJayZ
Video duration: 490 seconds A description of how we got to the turbine blades from the CF6 airliner engine, and removed them so they could be used in the LM2500 industrial powerplant based on that same engine. |
 |
Turbofan Parts Donor 2 Posted by: AgentJayZ
Video duration: 438 seconds We look at the CF6-6 airliner engine as a source for parts in the rebuilding of an LM2500 power-generation engine. I try to explain how and also why. In this episode, shop kitty has a bit part, and your challenge is to find her. |
 |
Turbofan Parts Donor Posted by: AgentJayZ
Video duration: 177 seconds Fan removal from our CF6-6 airliner engine. Our goal is to remove the turbines and inspect the hot section parts for possible use in another engine. |

Air-Cooled Blades - Turbine Engines: A Closer Look Posted by: AgentJayZ
Video duration: 747 seconds A look at the hardest-working parts in a large industrial gas turbine engine, and how they compare to their counterparts in the large aircraft jet engine from which they are derived. |
 |
GE LM1500 test Posted by: AgentJayZ
Video duration: 746 seconds Jet engine testing , my most ambitious editing project so far... Using 3 cameras and a lot of propane fuel, this is the first run of a new jet engine, built at S&S Turbines, in Fort St John, BC. |
