Making an LTD stirling engine
This is a video explaining how I made my LTD (low temperature difference) stirling engine. I made the engine in the school workshop over the past couple of months. This is a really simple yet effective engine, that is supposed to run on the heat from your hand, but my engine requires about 40oC to get going. I got the plans for this engine off this website: heetgasmodelbouw.ridders.nu/Webpaginas/pagina_ltd_stirling_met_cds/cd_dstirling_frameset.htm

Making and firing black powder rockets
Просмотров 4,8 тыс.16 лет назад
Made a big collection of rockets for my brothers 21st. The big ones are the biggest I have ever made. They are all core burners.

    Hey bro the size of the nozzle determines the rocket blast or fly right

    Hey mate, I'm trying to build this for my school proj as well, but I want to try and integrate an actual generator (coil and magnets). If you have any ideas as to how I could to that it'd be much appreciated. I also wanted to know if you managed to find out where else you can find perfectly circular glass, apart from the syringe (I was going to use a test tube myself until I saw this). Thanks for the video. -Will

    The displacer piston moves the air, not the floating/sinking of air due to density. The expansion of hot air and contraction of cold air is what makes the engine turn.

  • @jlw1911
    @jlw1911 11 лет назад

    The air is only moving due to the "displacer" displacing or moving it. The flywheel turns because of the pressure increase from heating gas in a sealed chamber. That's why volume study is critical to Stirling devolopment. This is actually Jan Ridders design. Google "jan riders engines"

    Tak tak,exelentní video.Podrobně popsáno.Místo grafitu je možno použír teflon a jemu hodně podobný,stejně samomázný materiál Liten.

  • @DONGORGO

    Yes you can. Just change the phase from 90 to 270 degree.

  • @tonytiger75
    @tonytiger75 12 лет назад

    Just a suggestion on turning the top and bottom plates... you can use a ball bearing live center with a "bull nose" or flat nose. face off a piece of steel in the chuck and press the plate tight in between with the tail stock to pressure drive it. This would make it much easier to round up the plates. Good job figuring out material and fitting issues along the way,

    To dig the hole should be all to costsame, and also - I think there could lead to creating a vulcano, But there are places where they use it becaus it it is not as deep to the lava . Iceland is one example.

  • @konsans

    As it runs on a temparature difference, then i expect the heat source to be the carpet on the floor. It should be warmer than the air.

    Yes, in fact switching the sides makes it go backwards.

    I've noticed that most stirlig engines are made with a heat source at the bottom and a cooling source on top, can it be reversed with a heat source on top and the bottom laying on a cooler surface?

  • @kindrixxx
    @kindrixxx 13 лет назад

    @SwarthySkinnedOne it uses external heat to create a air pressure diference in the piston. look up stirling engine on wikipedia for the concept this is a low temperature variation.

  • @willtitania
    @willtitania 13 лет назад

    Excellent video! I think all graphite parts can be replaced with metal ones, and the graphite could serve as a lubricant. All you need is to use soft pencil (2B, 4B) and fully cover the cylinders from inside, pistons and all other parts where friction occurs. If somebody is willing to test this please share your results. It could cause the necessity to repeat the graphite cover from time to time, while original solution is permanent, but probably more difficult to complete.

  • @backyardsounds
    @backyardsounds 13 лет назад

    This is just excellent! Seeing that the graphite is hard to come by but needed to help with friction, have you considered maybe a white metal alloy of possibly tin and lead, since they are readily available? Or possibly some other common alloy of white metals that would be somewhat of a lubricant?

  • @SwarthySkinnedOne
    @SwarthySkinnedOne 13 лет назад

    Never seen nor heard of anything like this till now. Why does it do what it does, this Whachamacallit engine? No batteries, no gasoline? How does it operate without electricity or some kind of combustion process. How them pittles go up and down making the circuloptic spin? I mean what is the underlying principle? Looked very involved, like you had to go through hell and high water in building this little dooglewiggie-wombat-wipplepuppy & make the coloumbs in the air spin out frm rotationals SX.
