Warping of a Titanium sample tube heated in DynaJet tailpipe (c) 2003 Larry Cottrill
BEND  IT  LIKE  BECKHAM ... er, TITANIUM
The 1/4-inch [6mm] OD Titanium tubing, after a 20-second run in the test shown in
the preceding photo. Here the tested tubing is held against an unheated piece of identical
size for comparison. This would be a serious problem for my pressure probe method, since
we'd never be sure exactly where the end of the tubular probe was positioned in the
tailpipe cross section at a particular moment.
