    Good job. Use a cheaper cfd software. Like simflow. Try their free version. Why didn't you use perpenticular part to the tail fin, "+". Wouldn't that have made your pitch more stable?

    • @Mike-Bell
      @Mike-Bell 14 годин тому

      I used Blender to model it and its free. In the video I explian why it only need a vertical stabiliser. It was pitch stable without a horizontal stabiliser. If you want to understand why watch the video again.

    Completely wrong. The hugr heat created seperated the water and steam into Hydrogen and oxygen. H2O. That makes a big big bang. THAT is why there was an explosion not just pressure from expansion.

  • @IainMcClatchie

    You might pick up a little thrust from dissipating internal heat. It will be very small. The key is to pressurize the interior. That's entirely possible, your static pressure at 400 km/hr is 7600 Pa. Put an 18 mm diameter hole at the center of the nose, which will also help with camera clarity when flying forward. You should be able to get nearly perfect static pressure recovery. The lip on that hole really matters. Look at the lips on turbofan inlets. The main thing is not to have a sharp edge that immediately expands outward internally. The air then flows through your body and ejects out the back through a converging duct at the very back (not along the sides if you can avoid that). If your ESCs are 85% efficient, you'll be dissipating 1350 watts in there. YOW! If you want to hold the air temp rise to 40 C, you'll need 34 grams of air per second, or 28 liters/sec. At 400 km/hr, your ambient stream tube is 2.5 cm^2. Expand that to 25 cm^2 through the ESC section and you'll have 40 km/hr air at almost 7500 Pa. Heat by 40 C on a 20 C day will get you 13% expansion. I can't determine the perfect ejector nozzle diameter, but something about 13% larger than the ambient stream tube should do it. Guess 2.75 cm^2 or 19 mm diameter.

    • @Mike-Bell
      @Mike-Bell 2 дні тому

      Sounds like a great solution. Will definitely investigate this. A hole at the rear is preferable because it shortens the tail reducing the toppling over moment on landing. Plus the batteries need cooling too. As does the flight controller. We are planning a longer tail to close down the air slower and so we can do away with the tail fin and its drag.

    • @Mike-Bell
      @Mike-Bell 2 дні тому

      Hi Iain Its clear you have expert knowledge. We are investigating relaying the video feed. Do you have experience with that? And it would be nice to talk to you further about the camera system. We had the canopy to prevent the camera from vibrating in the 500kmh airstream but tested an open camera and it didn’t shake. So the open camera is what we want to explore further and that fits with your pressurised inlet suggestion. @lukemaximobell1

      The object size can be typed into the xyz object size. In decimal millimetres if neccesary. You can draw a cube and rotate it to any angle. Select the cube and in Transform Orientations to the left of Snap make a new transformation axis to snap to. Its no harder than CAD. Just a different way to achieve the same result. loads of tutorials on UA-cam for any topic you need help with. And Blender has fanstatic animation features which are essential for my videos.
