The resin printer is the Elegoo Mars 2 Pro and I was using the standard Elegoo clear resin. I was tempted to build a custom UV curing station, but ended up ordering the Elegoo Mercury Plus 2 in 1, which I definitely recommend as it makes the post processing far easier. As mentioned in the video, none of this was sponsored/provided by Elegoo, I just saw it all on Amazon Prime and thought I'd give it a go.

I'm think the reason the nozzle is less efficient is because the turbine is attached to a propeller, and the propeller produces a small amount of pressure difference over a large area versus a nozzle producing a large amount of thrust over a small area

Try to build blades with nozzle at the ends. You can increase its diameter to get more thrust than you’ve already got

What if you add a flywheel attached to the propeller, and reduce the nozzle a little bit more?

Try building an engine with built in govenor to controll airflow and a heavy flywheel, it will make the engine loads more effecient! And to regulate speed you just let the weights travel farther out by adjusting the spring nut (you can get inspiration from hit and miss engine govenor)

why not position the exit hole pointing up? that way the reverse in direction of the air would end in a downward motion increasing lift

i think i get the reason why compressed air turbines didn't work so well, after waching a video about one of your piston engines the piston regulates when the air goes through to the exhaust. the turbine, on the other hand, puts up obstacles' the air goes through, and they have to be placed in a way were they move the most. problem is that, since air is the second dens' gas in the world, often at times it can it can pass through without adding much to the power out put, which leaves wasted energy that could of turned the turbine So maybe the solution is, a hybrid of piston and turbine? the idea here is that we have a turbine turning and axel, which the air will go through, but after it leaves the turbine it goes into a piston, which both turns the axel, and push's/compress's the air, when it goes through the exhaust it loops back into the turbine, then this time the air leaves through an exhaust, which will only be opened when the piston exhaust its air back into the turbine. I'm not an expert, in fact most of my designs didn't even make it to printing due to something being pointed out which should be obvious, so, print at your own risk

Can you try to make a plane that runs on a stirling engine? You could use a candle for the heat source, and have the airflow cool the other side. Perhaps some compressed air and some water spray could use evaporation to supercool one side, while the candle heats the other for peak efficiency.

Try using a small metal bottle insted of this big plastic one, and insted of compressed Air, you can use dry Ice. Maybe this way you can have a longer pressure suply with the same or less weight. The metal bottle is needed to make the heat transfer more efficient between the dry ice and the outside so It can transform into gas faster. A small portion of dry Ice has a lot of gas potencial.

Hi I was going to advice against making a helicopter, as achieving proper balance with one would be extremely hard, but I see that you are actually an aerospace engeneer, so no worries there. I also had a suggestion to perhaps improve the previous air powered piston motors. I believe that you could an extra piston on the crank shaft and add an extra bottle. You probably need to add an extra bottle, and perhaps re-introduce a gear ratio to make up for the added weight, but the extra piston should help produce a more constant trust. The grafs now show that the trust is fluctuating strongly. It should also help with a smother vent and cycle. (I'm sorry if i missed any spelling or gramatical errors, English isn't my first language)

You can improve your turbine by change the turbine configuration. Check for centrifugal turbine and blade design (they are in function of air flow angle and speed). You might also want a stator stage before rotors.

You have done the test at 6.9 Bar of pressure, greater than the critical pressure ratio, the flow probably chocked at the nozzle design a convergent-divergent nozzle with proper area ratio for the P0/P [6.9 Bar] then redo the test again... Now flow will be supersonic at the outlet Make sure you don't get any shock at the downstream.. Now I'm pretty sure you will see a difference in Graph.

Turbine is definitely better on aircraft because it's simpler, has smoother operation, and much higher rpm from the engine, which could be reduced by the gear ratios by a lot, and thus making some extra torque.

Try different nozzles; also, using air intake channels and the air being vented to draw in air and push the full volume is what will net you more thrust. Think jet engine, but without the combustion.

What would happen if you do not redirect the air by curved blades but it instead hits a flat surface which leans slightly with an edged corner in the end of the direction the air choses when it hits the blades, so that the air has to completely change direction when hitting this corner? You do not give the air a smooth way out, but forces it to redirect when it hits this corner

Subscribed to your channel,watched many vids,please get some face protection,as when things let go you will get hurt buddy.Back in 1990's i built helicopter blades from thin tin (no 3d printing then) so i could solder and modify angles etc,this helicopter used slotted light sensors and a gimble to keep the helicopter stable,one blade let go and went straight through a 2.5mm x 3 mains cable,which blew the shed fuse,(which cut the blade motors thankfully)the tin blade was a good 5mm into the chipboard behind the severed mains cable,,from then on ,face protection was a must.It would of easily done some real damage if it had hit me.Take care buddy.

This is kind of like a turbo, what if instead of shooting a loose jet of air you had the inlet flush, flat against the surface of the wheel, and then the channels through the wheel designed to get slightly thinner towards the exhaust, then your outlet pressure is adjusted by changing the size of that opening, which would vent the air at an angle but pressurized slightly. I feel like the amount of energy lost in the initial blast traveling between the nozzle and the bucket presents a huge opportunity for energy loss. I feel like with the right exhaust, gear ratio, prop size, air pressure, you could actually get a flight time with a comparatively flatter output, and overall more efficient. Or maybe I don't know how to physics... probably that..

Greetings from the Philippines. Hey, amazing video of using gas as a medium. I have this idea of putting a turbine, directly connected to an engine's crankshaft & using the exhaust gases, to hopefully give it a bit more torque among other things. It's essentially a turbo-compund engine but I was wondering what the turbine would look like. I.e.: the diameter, shape of blades, how much it weighs (also I want the mass to be much more centered inside the turbine to spin quickly and to keep the engine load to a minimum.) Sadly it's not gonna happen in the meanwhile because of the pandemic, complete lack of funds, jobless, and corruption running rampant here in my country. And also the complete lack of empathy of the people here.
