In March 2023, the executive of Aero Engine Corporation of China (AECC) announced the serial production of the WS-15 had started and China "[tackled] all technical bottlenecks" with the WS-15. [9] [10] FlightGlobal speculated that small-scale production run and in-flight testing with the J-20 fighter was underway. [11]
The engine shown to the right has its carburetor in the center of the zinc alloy casting to the left. (It uses a flow restriction, like the choke on an old car engine, because the venturi effect is not effective on such a small scale.) The valve reed, cross shaped above its retainer spring, is still beryllium copper alloy, in this old engine.
Hand-made examples, as small as Z scale (1:220), with a gauge of only 6.5 mm (0.256 in), have been produced. [2] These are fired with a butane flame from a burner in the engine's tender. AA Sherwood of Australia, an engineering lecturer, produced some miniature scale model live steam engines in the late 1960s and early 1970s.
Stationary model steam engine by Märklin, 1909. A model steam engine is a small steam engine not built for serious use. Often they are built as an educational toy for children, in which case it is also called a toy steam engine, or for live steam enthusiasts. Between the 18th and early 20th centuries, demonstration models were also in use at ...
PW610F fan, human hand for scale in inset. The 2,500 lbf (11 kN) thrust PW625F demonstrator engine was first run on 31 October 2001. [1] It flew in late 2002. [2]In 2002, the PW610F was selected for the Eclipse 500 twinjet, replacing the EJ22 as Williams was unable to reach sufficient reliability.
Some of the engines were intended to do a job of work rather than for the entertainment of a model engineer, for example, the 1935 Sandhurst horizontal 2/3 bhp engine, which was described thus: [18] 'This engine will run on gas or petrol and is designed for continuous work such as dynamo, workshop or pump driving. It is supplied only as ...
