Thermoacoustic Engine (Stirling) 2

To mitigate the problem of insufficient torque to drive the generator in my first video, the following solutions were initiated...1) Increase the diameter of the driven pulley. 2) modify the compression ratio. 3) Install a smaller, lower friction generator. A reduction in average RPM from around 650 to about 350 was noted due to these modifications. Background music is "Raise My Rent" from David Gilmour's self titled solo album on Columbia Records, 1978 *Copyright Statement This video is not intended to infringe any copyright laws in any way.

Between my chronic lung disease, and shakey Pete spending all night mixing paint, you're the only one at the asbestos factory able to put in a full day's work.

[@flyinhawaiian5848]

Yes Joe, we asbestos factory workers are world class, we take pride in our work! We have to, or the government may ship our jobs oversea's....

[@jamesyoung1507]

Looks like it’s flawless now! Well done.

[@flyinhawaiian5848]

Well, maybe not flawless, but it does meet our design criteria!

[@jamesyoung1507]

That’s fantastic

Pretty cool Robert the flyinhawaiian. I can't tell you my real name, but I sit next to you at work.

[@flyinhawaiian5848]

Thanks Joe! Hmmm.....Sits next to me, at the Wheezy Lung Asbestos Factory, by the PG&E plant in Hinckley? Eaton B! How's it brah!

[@rrip1]

Yep at the good old asbestos factory. Today I stripped out all of the asbestos in the old warehouse. Hopefully my shortness of breath has nothing to do with never wearing a respirator.
