Suck, squueze, bang, blow.
Turn'n'Burn surely..
The "bang" is a hangover from reciprocating engines which do produce series of explosions.
Jet egines just have a very hot fire burning continuously (hopefully).
A bang is a fire with nowhere to go!
Just like a 4-stroke, they have the four steps, rather than cycles, as they all happen simultaneously along one axis, rather than sequentially in seperate cylinders.
And the benefit (in aviation least) of not having to bear the penalty of having to carry around a heavy engine engine that generates no power for 75% of its working cycle
He has been on my YouTube subscription list for a few months now. Cool dude.Nice to see @Marchbanks having some fun in his spare time
PS, yes I know they're pulse jets, pedants.
Each engine in our Apaches weighs about 250kg dry, delivers max of 2400 shaft horsepower. And, touching wood, they’re very reliable. Makes petrol and Diesel engines look silly.
