How about those graphics!?
@Tom Stanton what program did you use to generate the 3D? It's amazing!
How did you make the incredible animations @ 3:00
I think they were made in blender.
He's low-key applying to Pixar.
I think it's fusion
You just tricked me into being interested in air engines, dangit
You're not the only one surely!
He tricked me into that a long time ago

Beautiful! 😍
Hi
I Iike yo videos
Hello there, Cody!
Heyyy. Love your channel Cody!
Huh
This is actually potentially ground breaking technology. As a mechanic... and a bit of a wannabe engineer, I'm incredibly impressed... and inspired! 👊💥
Honestly this guy should probably patent this or something. Maybe make his own air hog company.
@@matiastorres1510 I think you cannot patent anything anymore, after you publicly show it like that.
@@tenj00 like Volvo did with the 3 point seatbelt design, it is better for us to let others use new technology without worrying about patents and ownership. This speeds up the innovation process
He's only recreated some **very** old steam engine issues.. like.. the very first steam engine's issues! The Newcomen "atmospheric engine" only powered half of the stroke, just like this thing
You can run a steam engine with pressurized air.. just do that lmao

Now this is what I like to see. Nice job on a truly novel design. I don't think many realize how rare an accomplishment that is.
Its wild really. Never heard of anything like this. I know its a novelty, but true originality is not something you see alot of.
Came to say this as well.
Certainly one of the more impressive original engineering designs I’ve seen on yt. This guy can do great things.
and possibly patentable..?
@NightHawkInLight : he managed to pull off a thrust/weight ratio of >1! Yeah... that’s _extremely_ impressive when you’re working with a basic idea, a 3D printer, and a home-made thrust scale... I mean that’s incredible...
It’s a crazy rare accomplishment and good onya for calling that out!
@@digus The problem with patents is you can’t take one once you made the idea public. Therefore Tom should be supported because he is in fact spreading these ideas in an open source community. I guess he will of course be pleased if you use his original ideas to also mention his name and/or channel.
I totally agree, this is very very good.
Hey Tom! Great build! Might I suggest using a pressure regulator to increase the efficiency of your engine by giving the engine a measured consistent dosage of air from the bottle? It should flatten the peak on that thrust curve into a nice long line. You already have a measured out volume, regulating the pressure will allow you to optimize every part of your design by guaranteeing a pretty steady rate of air moving through it (assuming the pressure doesn't drop so quick temperature changes are a consideration)
Absolutely fascinating and incredible. Fantastic work, Tom!
hey Ronald ! Love your work ! Keep going,

He did them in Blender, which is pretty cool. If you know how to use blender, it's not super hard, but that's still pretty good. Looks great though, it was a nice touch. The hardest part probably was getting the diaphragm simulation to work.
Help me friends
These animations are amazzzzzing! I have no idea how long it would take to create something like this but I'd like to have a play with the software and learn the basics. Props on another amazing video.
Agreed, which software is it that the animations is made in?
Looks like the cad files from fusion 360 stuck in blender or some such.
@@erecxx No matter the true answer to this question, Fusion360 is free and a very good way to kickstart your 3D modelling career.
@@braytonlarson1860 thanks for the tip.
@@SpaceMissile Blender is also a free, amazing way of getting into 3D (and 2D!) animation
Wicked illustrations! I loved the original air hogs, this is so cool. Do you think a high pressure engine may be possible using threaded co2 cartridges?
I have been looking at videos of miniature air engines, and have been thinking what performance or run-time can be achieved by using a small amount of liquid nitrogen that boils and comes up to pressure, still allowing the use of a lightweight tank
@@ianlehman8342 Use liquid hydrogen, if you can. Yes, it's flammable, but it's really light (14 times lighter than water) in comparison.
Also you could probably use it's flame to heat a vaporization coil that sits between a liquid feed from the bottle, and the engine.

@Opecuted Don’t worry, the pound and the inch are based off of the kilogram and the meter respectively (the pound is defined as 0.45359237 kg and the inch is 1/12 of a foot, which is defined as 0.3048 meters), making this a legitimate SI unit. I’m still waiting for a call back from the CGPM.

Watching RUclips videos for years, I have come to the realization that there are many more smart people in the world than I originally thought!
And many more smart people do exist that haven't had the chance to realize their own potential. I like to think I am one of them!
There are a lot of smart people in this world. But unfortunately a lot of those people waste there gift and those who are not as smart but work harder surpass them in the long run
And vise versa.
The problem is that to find a smart design, you have to wade through dozens of idiots trying to scam us into believing that perpetual motion works.
The ones who really won't give up are the guys trying to run an engine on hydrogen separated by electrolysis.
A 30 second calculation shows that the energy taken to generate the hydrogen is at least 10 times more than it can produce.
Simply disconnecting the tube and lighting the gas produces a flame smaller than a candle and we are expected to believe that this will power a car.
Some of these guys have produced amazing fuel consumption improvements, totally oblivious to the fact that they were just turning down the fuel and the hydrogen was making no difference.
The result was a 70hp engine producing 30hp and the life expectancy of the engine being reduced to a matter of hours.
@@MrLifeistoobusy huio
"Thrust time per 2l bottle at 60psi" must be imperial, isn't it?
its better than imperial measurements. I propose its called 1 stanton. "how many stantons can that stanton cycle based air engine produce ? " is a question i want to hear eventually at a mechanical engineering lecture XD
It's worse, it's a mixture of Metric and imperial so noone understands what's happening
Lol
In this case the SI derived unit would be: N^2*m*s
Or in SI base units: kg^2*m^3/s^3.
Not very useful unless someone has a better way to represent the unit.
Liter is metric, and PSI is imperial... so...

Old air hogs actually had air powered engines, hence the brand name
I think many people don't even appreciate the amount of work that was put into this. Been trying to get this thing to work for weeks but have been struggling quite a bit with airtightness. Really admire you for coming up with this genius concept
6:44 "but we all know that noisy engines don't always go faster." Tell that to the guys who play with their mufflerless cars outside my house at 5am.
Anyway, love the videos man. Keep it up!
yeah, or h-d's without mufflers that have like 40 hp.
I had a Briggs & Stratton lawn motor that was 4 stroke. I hopped it up from 3 1/2 hp to 10 hp about 40 years ago. The exhaust was like a expansion chamber on a 2 stroke. It really loud at low rpm due to the extra long intake valves! At just off idle it made 5 hp. The ringing of the exhaust could be heard at a 1/4 mile away.
Tom is the kind of guy every one wants in their team.
Awesome, just wondering if people at air hogs see this and be like, “Man! Why didn’t we think of that!”
They probably had access to better springs and piston rings
Maybe add multiple engines that goes when the other is releasing the old air.
You mean make a triple expansion engine - that uses the pressurised air 3 times :)
2:30 When your CAD is accurate down to the layer lines! Seriously though, how'd you do that?
Right!
I do the texturing in Blender, which has a way of adding waves to a model. So I scale the wave lines way down haha. Someone has since suggested that it's possible to export a layer line model from Prusa slicer.

Would be negligible compare to the weight of redirecting pipes to rear
@@olistanley5790 the diagram at 3:28 has the holes exiting orthoganlly to the drive shaft- so it maybe wouldn’t be too hard just to angle the holes 45 deg to the back and then open them up a little to allow for more pressure- of course the energy losses of redirecting the flow that direction probably reduce any noticeable thrust. But would be a fun little addition

That's such an impressive design. I would love to see this as a well lubed, CNC milled metal version!
If you have a well lubed cnc milled metal version you might as well ditch the diaphragm because then its probably airtight anyway.
might as well search for air-drills
I’ve got an idea - that is to make a compressed air powered radial engine, the ones you’d find in old Airplanes from the 1930s to 1940s.

I think this is the most sophisticated and mature design you've made yet, and those 3D print textured renders are fabulous. My only request is that you put that 3D printer on a table, that thing is going to melt your carpet!
Wow, these new renderings are absolutely beautiful Tom!
Make a engine that has more pistons

Now put 3 or 4 of those together and you should have a pretty smooth engine.

Never been so early!!!!
I LOVE watching videos made by people like you. It’s a shame that most of the internet is full of dumb people, memes, and stupid fanbases (People like Tom don’t have stupid fanbases and their fans are big brain)
If you pursue this design further - a small suggestion for prototyping that makes finding the correct length of the brass-insert and the push-rod a lot easier:
Use screws.
instead of just a random created brass-insert get a ~6mm brass threaded rod, make the fron smooth, and for the pushrod drill a hole and insert another screw/threaded rod into that hole.
Like that you can just screw the part to a different position instead of having to make a new one every time.
And for the gears - use some lego-gears (or any similar like Cobi, BlueBrix, Cada). The gears are cheap, easy to use, made from ABS and with the cross-shaft also easy to connect to other printed parts.
This is very good advice!
Modular, easy-to-modify designs are wonderful for prototyping! Especially if you can use off the shelf parts. Then when you know the final designs, you can customize, make to measure and make any small improvements/refinements you feel are necessary

Hot damn Tom you kicked the animations up like 30 notches!
I love this so much! Cannot believe this is all free for anyone to watch
I was about to say that this engine would work great in a vacuum because it doesn't require combustion to function and the lower external pressure means less air would be needed to make it run with the same force, but then I realised that you are using the engine to turn a propeller which needs air to be useful🤦♂️

5:53 look at his face... What a heartwarming face that you will do after a lot of effort that you spend and then see the result that you want
U can use a magnet(like poles)which will be more efficient. U will not need any air pressure. Replace the metal ball with a strong large surface area which must fixed at that position and another magnet of less surface area attached to the rotator. It should be very close to the fixed magent and all u need to do is to rotate the rotator and it will work unstoppable unless u stop it. Try this and compare it to your other engines.
That would be a perpetual motion machine. Have you built such an engine?
I love the look of pure joy on your face when the engine starts working correctly! Great video as always.
My first thought is when do we get to see a radial engine with this technology? It's soo cool already.
You ever tried sticking dry ice in that bottle to add more power.
I have been meaning to try that, but instead I put the bottle in a bucket of hot water. Doing both would be even better.
This is fascinating. Given sufficient component durability, and ability to harvest sufficient air pressure from the atmosphere directly, this type of engine could theoretically keep a craft alot infinitely with no fuel. I mean, you could theoretically use one as a compressor to collect and store air pressure, and the other to provide thrust, but Chances are the two would cancel each other out, and never be able to produce sufficient power to overcome it's own drag.
Probably not feasible at all, at least, not with current tech, but I do find it to be an intriguing thought experience. It tickles my ADHD brain but good.
