Aircraft engine production in Russia. Actual capacity of the engine
| to Pass to sections: Aircraft engine production in Russia Stating a modern estimation to the facts of creation of the new engine factory Lessnera, it is possible to tell that six months for design department and the factory which was earlier not building similar engines, - term absolutely small, and continuous work of the first collected engine within two hours says that it has been designed competently enough and could bytdoveden. In 1909 Grizodubov has designed and has constructed petrol chetyrehtsilindrovyjdvigatel water cooling by prospective capacity of 40 h.p. At frequency of rotation of a cranked shaft 1400... 1500 rpm, specific weight of engine Grizodubova with a radiator made 2,8 kg/l, with, and working volume of cylinders - 2,93 l. thus, for reception of the set capacity litre capacity of this engine should be more than 13,6 l. S./l but as this size for analogichnyhdvigatelej that time did not surpass 11,05 l. S./l, that, possibly, actual capacity of engine Grizodubova was less than 40 h.p. |
One of the first Russian aircraft designers and pilots With. V.Grizodubov was the designer and the builder of the motor for the planes. As in the poster Grizodubov informs on an airplane exhibition, '... The airplane and the motor are made in Kharkov of Russian materials, under own drawings, calculations and models '.
