Possibly, although that depends on the specific engine design. The
internal turbines of many engines are hot enough to have a visible
glow, although it's often difficult or impossible to see from the
outside. They may glow long before they reach temperature limits.




Wrong again fukkwit.

Did you ever see a turbine wheel glow in the day time?
I don't normally risk looking directly into a jet engine exhaust while
it is running, day or night.


You don't normally risk looking outside your bedroom door, day or night.

Thanks for the coffee spew...

Excuse me while I find some paper towels.

I'm waiting for mixedup to tell us about his simulated turbine rating

What does turbine temp have to do with compressor temp?

The compressor is a turbine, also. High compressor inlet temps may damage the
compressor stage, and in any case they will tend to raise the temperature of
later stages in the engine, which may also cause damage.

Not sure I want to know where he thinks it's a poke...

You're an idiot and have no idea what you're talking about.
