Jumo 004

[HoHun]

Hi everyone,

Since there seems to be no thread on the Jumo 004 yet, I thought I'd simply start one with a couple of pictures from the Luftfahrtmuseum Hannover-Laatzen ...

Here is the turbine wheel of the Jumo 004, showing the firtree-style turbine blade attachments.

Great shots there Henning, I especially like the detail shot of the first one with the fan blades.

Hi Micdrow,

>Dont know if you seen these Henning. You may find these interesting.

Thanks a lot! Two or three of these plates are reproduced in von Gersdorff et al., but of course the entire set is much better!

For example, I hadn't seen such a detailed diagram of the Jumo 004B instrumentation:

- RPM (controlled automatically according to the position of the thrust lever)
- Exhaust pressure, measured between exhaust and intake
- Fuel injection pressure <- From other sources, this appears to usually have required engine adjustments as the result of acceptance flights.
- Exhaust gas temperature
- Oil pressure

Regards,

Henning (HoHun)

Umm is it me
or are those blades at the bottom of the last photo in HoHun's original post at a different angle of attack to the others?
Also, there does not look to be a well defined blade root mounting where the christmas tree joint is and it may simply be the angle of the blade and the camera but it looks odd.
