Cussons Turbojet Engine Test Stand provides a fully functioning, aero derivative small jet turbine.
Turbojets are used as high performance jet engines in aircraft and to provide the core of the very successful turbofan engines used on the great majority of airliners.
Cussons Turbojet Engine Test Stand provides a fully functioning, aero derivative small jet turbine. The jet turbine thrust can be measured and outputs from up to 230N can be achieved. The unit is provided with a mimic diagram displaying the temperatures of the gas flow and engine pressure ratio. Air flow, fuel flow and rotational speed measurement mean that an energy balance for the engine can be undertaken.
