Wilesco T90 Steam Turbine |

Into the new
millennium. We start with a new generation: The Steam Turbine.
They are the successors of the traditional steam engines and replaced it
more and more during the last decades.
Turbines are used today in the aeronautics as well as in power stations. The
first model of this range is mounted on a light-coloured and printed base
plate. A graph shows the course of the torque dependent on the speed and a
manometer shows the pressure in the nickel-plated boiler.
Of course, our driving models - which are of excellent quality - can be
operated with the Steam Turbine T 90.
Finely painted metal base plate 310 x 250 mm.
Height, including smoke stack, 320 mm.
Weight: 2kg

The WILESCO Steam Turbine T 90 represents in contrast to
the piston driven machines a different technology. The RPM and the working
pressure are higher (1.2 - 1.5 bar.) Because of this it is important to
preheat the boiler, then the fun can begin.
With the second filling of dry spirit tablets the maximum
allowed pressure is achieved which is equivalent to the well known steam
engines D 16 or D 20.
The turbine and the turbine housing are made of high
quality and heat resistant plastic. The biggest difference between the the
steam engines and the turbine is that the turbine runs without oil. All
moving parts on the turbine are bearing mounted to enable a smooth operation
at high speeds (up to max 9000 RPM).
Due to the built-in gearing with a ratio of approx. 1:4
WILESCO's model range can be driven. As in all Steam Turbines the steam is
directed onto the turbines vanes through a special nozzle thus setting it
into rotation. |
