Marc -----Original Message----- From: Rotary motors in aircraft [mailto:flyrotary@lancaironline.net] On Behalf Of Bulent Aliev Sent: Sunday, January 23, 2005 6:35 AM To: Rotary motors in aircraft Subject: [FlyRotary] Hot turbo Last night while running engine in the hangar, my neighbor waved me back to take look at the turbo wheel. I have a 10" straight out pipe and the turbo wheel can be seen glowing bright red. That was only at 2300 engine rpm. Looked like the tail pipe of F-16 :). Even after shut down the red glow stayed for a while. I know this is not news to any body, but can't imagine what the turbine wheel is going through at full power runs?
