BUILD YOUR OWN RC TURBINE ENGINE By Bob Englar This Turbine engine is “state of the art” as it currently applies and is designed to deliver high power with reliability. While using the same compressor and turbine wheels as in the KJ66 design, it is simpler to make and cheaper to maintain in the longer term. The KJ66 provided a quantum leap in the design of The Following parts are availabl Page 3 of 16 miniature gas turbines and we should all be grateful to the design team for placing it in the public domain. Starting at the front of the Engine, the compressor wheel shroud is machined aluminum. The diffuser requires a simple turning and milling operation as the 6 deg slope is on the front of the wedges with a mating slope on the diffuser cover. Therefore the diffuser can be milled while held flat on the table. Also the front bearing can be replaced by simply removing the compressor shroud and shaft. The diffuser cover is slotted for an “O” ring to provide a case seal and the assembly is held in place in the case by a ring of 12 machine screws. The front end is extremely rugged and should survive even the most severe crash. The shaft is made from 4140 (60 ton, 90 ton after heat treatment) steel and runs in ceramic ball races with front preload provided by a wave washer bearing on the front ball race outer ring. The bearings also ride in ‘O’ rings. This keeps them centralized when the shaft tunnel expands with temperature and also results in quieter running. Lubrication is provided by mixing 5% Jet oil with the kerosene and a “Tee” in the external fuel line delivers this to the front bearing. Air under case pressure is fed to the front bearing via slots in the rear of the diffuser and this carries the lubrication down the shaft tunnel through the rear bearing to provide it’s lubrication, then to at
