Turbocharger parts (6/30/2013)

Parts from t3/t4 turbochargers, best ones were selected for the gas turbine.

 

 

Turbocharger parts (6/30/2013)

Turbine casings were cleaned by placing on an aluminum plate and submersing in dilute hydrochloric acid. The aluminum is oxidized while the rust on the iron turbine casing is reduced.
