I am designing and manufacturing a turbojet engine based on a turbocharged system and require assistance with combustion chamber sizing, systems control for fuel and airflow regulation, and afterburner sizing to enhance performance and thrust. Additionally, I am researching fuel performance, comparing petroleum-based and alternative fuels, and need recommendations for cost-effective methods of data collection during testing, such as affordable sensors for measuring combustion efficiency, emissions, and thermal output. Any advice or resources on these design and research aspects would be greatly appreciated.
Wisdom Simwila Kalunga Wisdom, So far I note 4 questions you’ve asked of the R-Gate community; (1) Jet Engine test and simulation software, (2) calculating and sizing an afterburner for a jet engine, (3) designing a control system and test rig setup for a turbocharger-based turbojet engine and (4) Essential Sizing For a TurboJet Engine Design Using a Turbocharger. ——- In my personal opinion you should study this in a university setting. Further, you neglect to mention an ability (see #3) for understanding, designing and maintaining safe conditions. Without these having these parameters pre-established you risk the safety of those around you…but…more importantly that future safety of the people flying the aircraft with your designs. Yes, absolutely, my response is a bit extreme. But so is playing with ideas and objects that first, and always, must protect human life.
Its my final year project and its being tested in a university setup. Saftey is paramount, im working around the clock to build it for sustainable fuels such as hydrogen. Its my first attempt at this so I ask alot to learn from those that went in the field before me. STANDING ON SHOULDERS OF GIANTS, they say.

So if you have any Guidance Id appreciate it on any key Areas of my project as youve noted the 4 main questions i have asked thus far.
