Here is a great project for someone just looking to have fun and experiment or even for a father/child project.
This Compressed Air Powered Turbine packs quite a punch. When a 5mm RC Airplane Propeller adapter is used, it will spin a 12inch (305mm) propeller at nearly 5000RPM.
The turbine uses a gear ratio of 5.72:1 in order to multiply torque output and reduce speed.
There are other parts required for this build. These include:
Qty 4 - 5x10x4mm Bearings for 5mm Shaft
Qty 1 - 5mm x 35mm for Turbine Shaft
Qty 1 - 5mm Diameter 55mm Output Shaft
Qty 1 - Locking 5mm Collar
Instructions and Additional Notes are found in the drawings.
Safety Glasses and a Solid Barrier required when operating the turbine. A high flow compressor is required.
