GT60A1 - micro gas turbine engine

From mSO-1 to GT60A1

red. Michał Czarnecki

Micro turbines pioneer eng. Kurt Schreckling build three prototypes FD-1,FD-2, FD3/64 considering his practice third engine work "as expected". He also design KJ-66 which is common layout for majority of model turbines.  

From my experience :

Engine:  no.1 mSO-1,  no.2 GT60, no.3 GT60A1

After first prototype      - I know that without experience "scientific effort" are more or less "wishfull thinking",

         second prototype - I know that design decision was better but needs to be redesigned once again,

         third prototype      - I know that's design is good and needs tweaking to be reliable as commercial products.

Summarizing - four compressor designs, four  combustor designs, three rotor/internal and two turbine designs, 1+ jetpipe designs, excluding parts that needs to be remanufactured due different reasons.

The best of this project to me is to feel comfortable with "engineering experience".

By itself, competence is meaningless without character and good judgment.” ― Harold G. Moore

GT60A1 - performance

Gas turbine test was limited up to 120000 rpm due Projet Hornet II ECU  software limits on rpm. Engine is capable to operate at 135750 according to JetPOL test using Hornet III ECU.
