TYPICAL SPEED CHART
(RPM's)
(No Load)
(Refer to "Typical Speed Chart")
The following represents data collected under lab
conditions. Flow meters were installed on each of
the two 3/8-inch ID heated air lines used to supply
the Turbodisk turbine motor. The airflow through
each flow meter was recorded and added together
to obtain the total air flow through the system. The
speed of the disk was monitored through the means
of a PulseTrack system. The air heater was set at 120
degrees during all data collection.
Rotational speeds are unloaded and can be expected
to drop 20 to 30% when under a fluid load condition.
Heated turbine air increases efficiency of motor up
to 10%. This chart should be used as a guide ONLY.
Speeds will vary due to rotator wear, tubing size or
lengths, etc.
NOTES
>
Never run disk over it's maximum safe
operating speed.
NOTE
>
Air heater removes condensation from
OD of motor at high speeds.
