RE: fullsized, working version would be way more interesting, though

Good description!
My point was the unexpected effect the heat has on the gas viscosity.

It is the viscosity that is tied to air sound velocity, if you had a box with a hole in it and the inside had 1 atmosphere over ambient, putting a hole in the box, the max air speed out of the hole is the speed of sound.

If the air were heated to around 230C, the speed of sound has already doubled and so is the velocity of the air exiting the hole at a give presure.

BUT the kinetic reaction from that is like with a bullet where the energy it carries is what 4 times greater if traveling twice the speed and like felt recoil, the plane is pushed by that..

Might be fun someday, google "turbo charged burn barrel"
