Thrust test stand for pulse jet engine / Nor Azwan Sarbani

One of the important performance parameters of a pulse jet engine is the thrust produced. Hence, for any new design, the measurement of the thrust produced is necessary. A test stand was successfully designed and fabricated from scratch using facilities available in the FKM's workshop. The test...

Hence, for any new design, the measurement of the thrust produced is necessary. A test stand was successfully designed and fabricated from scratch using facilities available in the FKM's workshop. The test stand was designed for a pulse jet engine with maximum thrust of 25N. The design concept was based on balancing the moment due to the thrust of the pulse jet engine with a dead weight which is movable so as to provide a counter-moment. Calibration was performed by applying a known force (known weight) at the line of retain of the thrust. The movement of one centimeter movable portion of the minor scale is equivalent to an increment of 0.0294 N of the produced thrust. 2004 Thesis https://ir.uitm.edu.my/id/eprint/73956/ https://ir.uitm.edu.my/id/eprint/73956/1/73956.pdf text en public degree Universiti Teknologi MARA (UiTM) Faculty of Mechanical Engineering Mohamad, Nazri
