I would like to know if anyone on the forum could identify this engine model. I am not even sure that it is space related. Thanks in advance...

At first glance that appears to be an aircraft turbine jet engine model, not a rocket. A forum aviation buff may help further ID this, good luck. |

Looks like a gas turbine engine used for industrial applications, eg. generator or pump power. |

Agree, it appears to have an air intake, then a compressor stage up front and turbine blades at the back, with the exhaust a central hub and a combustor section in the middle. Suck, squeeze, bang, blow equals turbine engine. | |
