This is the first test of my setup for running my home made gas turbine on liquid fuel.
Build log: https://misterg.org.uk/turbine-html/
Overall, I'm very happy with the setup.
(Yes, I did forget to turn off the starting gas on the first run - what can I say? I was excited!)
Fuel is 28 sec kerosene with 4% TWC-3 oil added for the feed to the bearings.
The fuel pump used is a "J Perkins 12V Electric Glow Fuel Transfer Pump".

It is a positive displacement, gear pump, but there is enough back-leakage in it that it will run against a closed line. It will still develop well over 1 bar fuel pressure though. The engine maxed out at 0.6bar with the pump running on 8.4V. It should be capable of fuelling this engine to it's design pressure (0.8 bar) or beyond if run on 12V.
I need to sort out a reliable tachometer before I'd be happy to run the engine any faster.
