Heinkel HeS 30

Aircraft Engines

The Heinkel HeS 30, also known by its official designation 109-006 or HeS 006, was an early axial-flow turbojet originally designed by Adolf Müller at Junkers and finally built and tested at Heinkel after Müller and part of his team moved to Rostock in 1939. It had a five-stage axial compressor, ten can-annular combustion chambers and a single-stage turbine with adjustable guide vanes. The first engine ran in May 1942, and by October it was running at full speed with about 860 kilograms-force of thrust at a dry weight of only 390 kilograms, a better thrust-to-weight ratio than either the BMW 003 or the Junkers Jumo 004. The air ministry still refused it a production contract and told Heinkel to turn to the larger HeS 011.
