To help with the hydrogen peroxide coming out of the turbine it could help to mount the catalysator vertically;
the fluid stays at the bottom and has a better chance to decompose before exiting to the turbine.
I thought the same but it'd probably catalyze to slowly, should definitely add a vertical pipe to limit the amount of wasted liquid tho
Also put a pressure valve on the outlet to build pressure before venting to the turbine.
@@systemsrenegade9888 thats a great idea!
@@jordanh9210 It won't be too slow if top fed.
maybe a chambered flask to gather the liquid peroxide and a pressureless return line to the supply flask
Future idea: Get the community to send you 3D models of rocket nozzle designs that you can print out and test against each other to see if crowdsourced engineering can improve on existing designs
I'm sure the community will send prints without him doing that
Kind of like the fan showdown
sounds familiar, like a certain fan related showdown. I like it.
This sounds like the dude who does this with PC fans.
Not a bad idea.
@Ben 🅥 get the hell out of here man, how much did that Fierce a$$hole pay you to spam his crap here? Youre sad if your doing this for $10.
I had NO clue catalytic converters could do that to H2O2! Freaking awesome and really does make things so much more practical.
What did you think catalytic converters did? Magically get hot and waste fuel to protect you from carbon monoxide and oxides of nitrogen when driving your hooptie?
@@EnthalpyAndEntropy mine doesn't do anything since those crackheads ripped it off
@@EnthalpyAndEntropywhat a genuinely useless comment.
@@EnthalpyAndEntropy He didn't know they worked on Hydrogen Peroxide, since he probably assumed there wasn't much hydrogen peroxide in fuel.
@@meateaw I was being facetious. I've had multiple courses on phase and reaction equilibrium as well a kinetics and I've been making catalysts for chemical sensors for years. It's common knowledge in my field but I wouldn't fault Maker's Muse for not knowing. He or she shouldn't feel bad and it is freaking awesome!
Anyway, you have it backwards. It's not about how much peroxide is in fuel. Hopefully none until you're ready to rock your rocket as a catalyst isn't needed. The catalyst in your car helps reactive combustion byproducts become less reactive. It's the same for the peroxide. The peroxide is reactive. It allows it to react with itself...
That's what catalysts and enzymes do. They're generally a convenient surface for stuff to adsorb onto to then react with themselves and hopefully desorb after. It's usually much faster than waiting for liquid or gas molecules to collide just right so they can react as they would without.
To help with the H2O2 getting into the turbine, you could try a 2 stage reaction chamber. So, have the exhaust of the catalytic converter feed into another plastic tube containing the potassium permanganate doped ceramic thingy that you made in an earlier video. Then have the exhaust from that tube feed into the turbine.
Or inject propane (or similar) and burn it in the oxygen/h2o2 rich atmoshpere,
I’m really enjoying seeing all these engines and rockets. It would be really interesting to see you put all this experience toward an actual small scale rocket.
@Ben 🅥 bro what
Or a actual jet
@@notlone7721 It's a bot. Don't expect it to have any braincells.
@Ben 🅥 spammer
@@LordDragox412 i mean yea but sometimes those are just people that think all random=funny
Maybe to improve the decomposition of the peroxide you can have the pump run the peroxide vertically into the catalytic converters. That way the liquid stays at the bottom of the converters and the steam rises up into the turbine.
This is a great idea.
My first thought, totally agree!
yup I was thinking the same thing
That was I also thinking + he can put some pressure valve just before the proppeller acting as a buffer so it can have higher output pressure at the end
And maybe some empty space at the top to let any liquid that gets pushed up fall back down
I just followed a course about hydraulic turbine design and to see you put that into practice made my day. Tip if you want to build a good turbine, just look up the Cordier diagram. In short, it tells us that the size and flow rate of a well-designed turbine are intertwined (there are formulas for this). And depending on your flow rate, I expect you need to go smaller.
You could scavange a fuel injector and fuel pump from a car. That would give you a good spray pattern into the catalytic converter and as really high flow rate, and granular control over the reaction by manipulating the injectors spray rate by controlling it with some sort of PWM generator (arduino or similar) and some transistors or high speed relays. Cool project!
Was thinking the same but with just a nozzle, I don't think an injector from a car would output enough flow looks like he had to put alit in to get any out, maybe 3 injectors one for each catalyst and then separate tubes
uwu
The catalyzer needs to be vertically mounted, bottom fed, and have a high pressure reflux column with baffles to recycle peroxide that hasn't decomposed.
Why not top fed with a parallel exit? I would think that the liquid dripping down through the column would have a better decomp yield - and possibly add a shower-head style drip to spread it over the baffles more evenly?
@@xaqori Bottom fed doesn't require a shower head to be fabricated and if he still doesn't have enough catalyst to fully decompose his fuel gravity is working with you to keep the liquid out of the turbine and require less bleed pressure through the reflux.
TLDR; its easier, cheaper and more efficient to go bottom fed. Best part is no part.
Add a steam tank between the catalyst and the motor - two control systems: one to keep the tank at pressure, and another to release that pressure to the motor.
Just a thought as well, could you accelerate the reaction by preheating the peroxide before it hits the converters. lastly hook the turbine shaft to the pump and use a valve to throttle it?
I've always enjoyed your videos but something about the way you made this one is just very, very good. Slightly more chill, really just analyzing different aspects of your design and the project at hand. Not sure if this makes any sense but I really enjoyed it
Im thinking it might be advantageous to mount your reaction chamber vertically, that way you can submerge the 2nd cataliser section, let the H2O2 buble up into the 3rd section, this should help limit the amount of liquid that gets pushed through the turbine. Speaking of the turbine, lm blown away you didnt use the tesla turbine as a comparison. Great video as always.
Big brain, also some condenser to bring liquid back into the reaction chamber
Yes, I was about to comment how vertical chamber would help!
Also maybe have a longer chamber end section to catch the liquid that bubbles up. Like, a tube that is 4 catalyzers long, but only has 3 for example.
I made the same suggestion before I found this comment. Great minds think alike lol.
@@erinfinn2273 That's much smarter than my idea
I see two things that needs an improvement, the catalyst tube need to have the output tube it must be in a higher position respect of the input side, so the peroxide can’t exit in a liquid form. The second one it’s the weight of the impeller, you can hear the rpm ramp up sound. Good video.
Making the catalytic tube vertical just like the peroxide tank would automatically add a sort of "distilling" element to the process, making sure all the gas has to pass through all three catalytic converters.
Yeah sitting the cat tube vertically and filling it from the bottom should help alleviate the problem of it pushing H₂O₂ into the turbine. Also to get the most work out of the steam it should be coming in along the axel and exhausting at the outer edge of the radial turbine. The problem with this design , with the steam exiting in the centre, is that the steam is being forced back on itself by centripetal force imparted by the turbine disc. It's also moving to an area of higher pressure as it moves to the centre and as liquid is getting into the turbine and trying to exit vial the centre this is inducing more drag.
In short swap the inlet to come it near the axel and the outlet to the bottom of the turbine to drain any liquid
Your videos are my go to when I start feeling down. Thanks for being an amazing human.
This is on its way to becoming a torpedo, suggest making stators and a reduction gear box to turn propeller an see if steam generator can power an RC torpedo, multi episode build. Keep up the good work
I'd love to know how many uses you could get out of those cat converters. Not a bad video Joel, and keep up with the CNC machining. Whole new possibilities there mate.
There’s no limit, the point of catalyst beds is that they aren’t consumed, they act as a mid step in a reaction with lower activation energy than the reaction without
@@danielfearn6076 there will be practical limits though. Especially when re purposing them from other applications.
It's not that the catalyst will itself degrade but likely the binding agents or the structure holding them.
I otherwise completely agree with your notion. Decomposing hydrogen peroxide is a quite violent event at the localized site of the reaction.
catalytic converters last many many years in cars and many thousands of miles they will easily last for more than 100,000 miles. so I expect the uses, in this case, are almost limitless because i don't think he can do enough projects to wear them out. The only way they would wear out is by using materials or chemicals that will damage the parts in the catalytic converter. but that is difficult to do i mean in cars they get red hot you just dont see it.
there is a video some guy did how a catalytic converter works he cut one in half and put a window on it so you could see how it works on an engine. its a bit like the elements in a toaster they heat up many many times and they just work over and over.
Das kruger ischt wunder... vandersteïnklügenoberkleinen
Cats in cars super heat to reburn unburnt fuel....he isn't getting them glowing red however, which means using them to decompose hydrogen peroxide should allow them to last longer
I’m so happy you are finally seeing promising results! Good job Joel, you’re a genius!
This was incredible! Thank you for your videos!
Design recommendations:
Move fuel tank/source away from the AB plume & Clamps, or otherwise secure the high RPM point of failure to a surface so you can continue to create? Lol. Also, if the Aluminum turbine failed at those RPMs, the table & bow tie will do their best, but...
NEXT BUILD!
It might be wild to use your engine here to power a Strandbeest of some sort. I'd imagine it would look like something out of Howl's Moving Castle! You know... For strictly demonstrative purposes & TOTALLY not to create a giant mechanized death spider ala Wild Wild West. 🤔
A steam-powered automatic shooter of some sort seems about right. That high-pressure steam has a lot of potential.
Oh and about those broken endmills, try single flute endmills for cutting aluminum. I use mostly 6mm diameter single flute at about 10000rpm, 0.8mm depth of cut, and 1000mm/min feed. It blew my mind and cutting has been much easier since!
Video Idea: Making an RC jet-powered boat!
I have my eye on this coment
Thats a cool idea, you can even make it hydroplane to make it go extra fast
Yeah
Uwu
Interesting idea
The tube keeping in vertical
Nice video
Nice video
That was so cool. What shocked me the most was the overall pressure coming out as a chemical reaction.
This video earned you a sub. Good stuff. Thanks.
So, first thing as mentioned before: Vertical placement of the catalysators to prevent liquid going into the turbine; Secondly you need more steam nozzles to hit the blades, and maybe a redesign of the blades themselves :) Take inspiration from a turbo compressor ;)
Instead of centrifugal pump design, he should use the design of one of those micro hydro turbines with the dual scopes instead of impellers. The scopes cause the water to turn completely around, imparting maximum force on the turbine. Having a balanced number of nozzles will reduce the imbalanced forces on the turbine, helping the bearings out. The more nozzles, the more power, but the higher flow rate required.
You beat me to it. the cat is pointing down, allowing the liquid to go to the outlet before the gas.
@The Practical 3D Printing Project they extract energy from high velocity fluid. Liquids and gases are both fluids, and super high pressure steam is going to be moving at a tremendous velocity. I'd still like to see him try it, because I think it would be pretty effective.
@@WarrenGarabrandt Sounds like an interesting idea, but how would he manufacture the split scoop design? The bits of his CNC router wouldn't be able to remove the material inside the scoops.
@@xXxLolerTypxXx oh... Maybe he'd need to buy the scoops and install them into his own wheel.
The project i suggest you to make is to make a RC plane powered by Pulse Jet Engine
Nice keep going
Nice
Good idea 👍
Niceeeee
It would be a lot of work to do and plane might catch on fire
It is a good idea tho
Well done! Great job
Idk how I got to this channel but I’m 4 videos in and I love it here.
I didn't know you got a metal cnc, thats sick. You should remake some of your best 3d printed rocket engines now that they wont melt so easily!
You should do a project on a rotating mass balancer, considering you make many high rpm spinning stuff for your projects. Balancing your spinning projects very accurately would really let your projects perform much better and plus it would be fun to watch you do a video on trying to make a balancing rig on your own!
Video idea: make a HHO or Hydrogen gas generator and run a small internal combustion engine off it , this whould essentially make a "water powered" engine .
you know some guy successfully made a car that work not with gasoline but water few month later he died he killed by probably gasoline companies didn't like him
Amazing🙏Keep on going 🤙
12:02 …this dance = new sub…keep up the good work and great dance moves…cheers..👌🏼✌🏼
Theme for a future video:- The electric jet engine which you just made reaches several thousand degrees at the nozzle, what if you convery the exhaust into *plasma*, and see it with a thermal imaging camera, you can do this by attaching a high volt power supply wires at the exhaust and make the part of wires at exhaust with tungsten to prevent melting. Improvement sugesstion:- you can use a porous thing to store Potassium Permanganate and pass the hydrogen peroxide through it, I think it work better than platinum or palladium.
Totally dig the music track slapping together the 3d print prototype!
That was amazing! I don't know if this would help , but maybe add a tank and a check vault ( one way valve) on the end of the chamber with the catolizors for it to be able to build pressure before it enters the turbine , have a valve between the compressor tank and turbine so you can close and open the vault once it builds enough psi
I want a 3d printer! So here’s my thought on improving the output!
We’ve gotta separate the unspent h2o2 from the steam. With the current design, the high pressure is giving you the same problem as with the permanganate. High energy fuel is shot out of the end because the catalyst works too well. If you added a chamber that allows the steam/peroxide mixture to fall vertically into, the peroxide will fall to the bottom, and the steam can be vented from the top. You can connect the top of the separation chamber to the turbine and loop the bottom back into the catalyst chamber.
That should both improve the efficiency of the reaction and protect the turbine from peroxide erosion.
I don’t think rotating the catalyst chamber vertically will improve the output as well, because you’ll limit the amount of catalyst the peroxide has exposure to. The top converter will really only be exposed to steam. I say keep it horizontal and separate the output.
I came here to say, mostly this, just not as well. ;) I hope he builds this.
Great ideas. I have no idea how to accomplish this, but I've heard that there is such a thing as an "air" bearing or a "liquid" bearing supposedly used in jet engines.
Another material that is immune to oxidation, unlike aluminum, might be a better choice, though maybe a copper plating of the aluminum would help. Your setup is really cool! I think it deserves being pushed along further.
You can improve your design by making higher tolerances. You can also remove the grease from the ball brings using a solvent, instead us a thin silicone based lubricant often found in spray cans. This way you will remove some of the friction caused by the grease. Another thing you can try is to balance your turbine, set it in a pace where it can be suspended upright, the heaviest point will then move to the bottom, then you can either subtract weight from that side or add some to the other side. Keep repeating this until wherever you rotate your turbine, it will stay. You can also try to improve the power of the turbine by attaching some gears to the output shaft in order to provide more torque.
And don't machine parts with the bearings in the stock material.
used to do tis with the bearings for RC car racing
Also maybe move the steam outlet to a higher point above the liquid level
Reducing friction like that will just increase the no-load RPM. Not any practical benefit IMO.
He doesn't have the equipment to balance the turbine. Components rotating that fast have to be dynamically balanced (what you described is static balancing.)
This video got recommended to me and now I have found a new creator to binge watch before sleep. Nice!
About the design improvement though, as many said I believe mounting the catalysts vertically would help reduce liquid H2O2 escaping and getting into the turbine.
What if another, smaller turbine was placed just after the catalyst?
The steam could rotate that smaller turbine which will require less force, and increase the pressure, maybe even install tubing downstream of the small turbine that decreases in size gradually until the main turbine inlet, which would help increase the inlet pressure even more.
8:05 @Integza I have seen in previous videos that the endmills * go into the material too fast. That's probably why you broke so many.
That's also at least one of the reasons if not the reason why your cnc machine makes weird noises.
*English isn't my first language, so I'm not sure if that's their name
Video idea : make a mini steam powered boat
Steampunk style would be nice
Would be really interesting to see how this turbine design would compare to a tesla-turbine
Edit: and also compared to a pelton turbine
and I would include a test with a Tesla valve for the one way valve!
I'm thinking the liquid water would add significant drag to the tesla-turbine which would decrease its efficiency dramatically. I'm also of the impression that testla-turbines can deliver less torque but higher power
@@TheWhiteDragon3 I suppose so, but I don’t know for sure so it would be amazing to see a test of that
00:10. I would love to see you put a gear reduction on that, and use that torque to crush tonatoes, and other stuff
Video Idea: make 3D printed hovercraft. You can use compressed air to allow the hovercraft to float and to propel it forward.
I'm so happy that integza now have access to metal parts!!! Now the things are going to be awesome!!
Video idea: you NEED a testing chamber.
Something Portal themed, in which tomatoes are being tested against your creations.
May you prevail over all the Chell that will enter the test chamber and rid the world of tomatoes.
#TomatoesAreDisgusting
PS: I actually believe that measurement of thrust, efficiency and an overall profiling of the various rockets/turbines/engines would increase your per-revision improvement quite a lot.
Greatest combination i knew it yes that will work together .plus tge way i found how to keep tge pressure in bottle so thoes machinering will keep working beautiful mate great🤝👏
You got my thumbsup alone for the dance of happiness.😂 Great work
Fantastic video! Your willingness to tackle even the wildest of projects is something I admire greatly! Keep up the great work!
When you get the catalyzer working better, you should mix fuel with the output and make a steam/rocket motor.
YES!! Finally working with CNC'ing and working with metals instead of just plastic! WE WANT MOARRR POWWWEEEEERRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR!!!!!!!!!!!
I'm so pleased that you're working with metal.
Video series idea: see how advanced of an engine you can make, using only water and electricity as your fuel.
Create a 3D printed electrolysis chamber to separate water into HHO gas, then use that HH0 to power a simple sterling engine, then work your way up to a steam engine. Can you make a HHO powered steam jet engine? Can you make a jet that runs only on HHO?
have separated electrodes so you produce H and O sperately
storing HHO is a stupid idea as it's a massive explosion waiting to happen
You should start a series where you make an engine every episode and produce electricity with it and compare which are the most efficient and with the most efficient engines you power a skateboard and go through a drive through
You can also add a "catch can" between the catalysor and the turbine (an air tight tank), so any liquid can be collected there before reaching the turbine!
Your videos are always educationally entertaining 🤣.
Cheers
Powerplants use a kind of "bent pipe" system with 2 outlets to separate the steam and residue liquid by using their density diffierence to get "dry" steam and prevent their turbine from being damaged. maybe put something like that between your steam generator and turbine, depending on how you set it up you might even be able to reuse the residue fuel
This is the stuff I love about youtube. We all know weird random facts like this. Thanks for sharing.
you could try wrapping the cats in an electric blanket and heat them to like 80C might help with the decomposition reaction, more temp is normally more better with chemical reactions. those cats may need re-activating every once in a while the metal will oxidise inside them which may make them perform better actually, PdO and PtO are better oxidation catalysts than Pd(0) and Pt(0) metals.
Do you think any cat is gonna survive this..? :D
@@Larock-wu1uu Yeah no sweat, supported PGM catalysts can be blasted with a few hundred degrees at a couple of hundred bar for 100s of hours on stream, this shouldn't do much to it, peroxide needs something acidic to leach out the metals from the cat, should be fine......should, I have eaten my words before 😂😅
A way to possibly fix the wasted hydrogen is to have 2 catalyst tanks and insert smaller amounts alternating into each. This might provide constant flow of power.
or mount it vertically
You should have a checkpoint valve between the pump and the "catalyzer" chamber. Also the decomposing Chambers should be oriented vertically. The idea behind this is to keep heavier liquid down and steam will leave and go up reducing the amount of peroxide passing through to the impellers.
Nice video, learned a thing or two from it.
Future idea: make a plane named Integza 1! it could be rocket powered, jet powered, electricly powered or powered using these co2 cartrages. Even better, make a tomato bay that can drop tomatos out midair and use it to bomb things!
Damn, why haven't I gotten your channel recommended earlier. Love the content, love the way you bring in both history and engineering in a relatively simple way so a guy like me can follow the video and understand the topics you talk about.
watching your videos feels like everything is packed very tightly together, and you're trying to find a spot in frame to fit your face. interesting choice there
Awesome, you are my new favourite RUclipsr :)
It would be so fun that if you make a "steam" powered fuel pump with a turbo jet engine or a rocket engine mounted to the bike/skate board (the oxygen generated from the steam turbine can be the oxidizer for the rocket engine)
It would be really great if you tried to build a steam-powered rocket like the ones used in World War II, but of course smaller 😅
Really instructive video, once again extremely cool to see what was built in the past. (Even if it was not used for good purposes)
yea, that's right, would love to see this.
lol i had seen this right after i had sad that
For a side fed turbine design you should have the exhaust outlet fully open to the atmosphere. Also if you look into A/R ratio of turbine housings you'll probably find the inlet is too small relative to the turbine diameter. Since you're working with a small-ish flow of gas I'd suggest down sizing the turbine wheel. It'd be helpful to get a pressure reading from the inlet side. Cool vid!
"and if you dont love your cat that much" lol not only have you earned a new sub, but i will not ff through your ads.
Love the historical tie-ins!
Idea: Attempt to bring a historical concept to life from a project that failed like the Avro Arrow!
Can you do a video where you compete all your engines against each other? You've made so many but a head to head competition of which one is the most powerfull would be interesting!
I think a good 2/3 of them melted or exploded by the end of testing, but that would be a neat video.
You should make a rocket powered blimp! Or just a regular blimp would be cool too.
As some people have already suggested, mounting the cat chamber vertically could help decomposition efficiency. If you do that, you could:
Video idea: hook up the turbine to the H2O2 pump with a modest gear ratio, give it a little puff of compressed air to get going, and you have a super dangerous, potentially catastrophic, and hopefully entertaining situation on your hands 😆
Future idea: this has always been a tough challenge for me to come up with an idea suggestion for your comments as it seems like all the best ideas are already posted or already in a video you've made in the past. All that being said, I know if I had a 3D printer I would thoroughly enjoy making model rockets and instruments of my own design (something like lap guitar, electric fiddle, monochord etc). Hope this gets seen, going to keep trying and comment in hopes of being someone that might receive a 3D printer, if in fact you still do that now and into the future. Thanks for all your great videos, I love your presence, your presentation of your various builds, and have learned so much in the year or two that I've been subbed.
I fully appreciate the hard work and planning that would have gone into this. I do possess a cnc router , a 3d printer but I lack the enterprise and interest you have. Thanks for spurring interest in these type of activities.
I’m a Tool maker i would recommend maybe 4140 or another cold roll steel for your components. maybe even Some light stainless steel. often times the metal i use to make armature shafts for large companies at work is really hard stainless steel or pre heat treat 4140
one of those compas guided "vengance weapons" was laying right in front of my old house, they found it 2 years ago when doing maintanaince. the whole village had the be evacuated and some mayor roads troughout the country where closed untill they had disarmed it.
Make a thrust tester for it ,
Measure it.
And put it carefully to a plane
Makes no sense 😄
Future idea: you should create a 3d printed submarine, like a U boat from WW2. It would be nice to see you use more electronics.
Like others have said for the catalytic converter you'll want to mount it vertically so that the peroxide has to fight gravity and is therefore less likely get shot out of the turbine. In addition to this it may be wise to install a "splash plate" above the catalytic converter in it's chamber so that any peroxide that get's shot up hits that plate and gets splashed to the side of the chamber to pool up underneath the catalytic converter. Leave a small gap below the catalytic converter in the chamber so any leftover peroxide can pool up and into the catalytic converter.
I'd like to see you make a V Twin engine with a twist, stackable power plants. Allow me to elaborate, a V Twin has 2 cylinders, if you design it in such a way, you can essentially daisy chain it into an odd looking V6, V8, etc. A mechanical, if not a Lego-like, adaptation to cylinder deactivation to balance fuel econ and power. You may use whatever fuel you deem fit. Watching your projects are always entertaining and educational, looking forward to the next one!
Put the CC tube vertical with the h2o2 input at the bottom, and use a small "nozzle" to spray the h202 up into the CC's. This should keep a lot of the liquid out of the turbine.
I came here to say the same thing
Video idea: make a steam engine powered tomato 🍅 death machine aka Juicer🤭
Also, A longer tube and keeping it vertical will minimise hydrogen from escaping and give it enough time to react.
😆
Leave the tomatoes alone man
You mean a blender?
@@shubhamchannel792 reverse veganism lol
@@WTechRepair that's one new word to my dictionary >.
Really impressive project, man. Here's a couple ideas 💡 if you're interested:
1. Polish the turbine and oil the chamber to reduce efficiency losses in the turbine itself.
2. Stage multiple turbines with increasing radii to extract more of the power from the steam as the pressure drops.
3. Use some kind of liquid separator to eliminate fluid passing through the turbine.
4. Use more catalysts in parallel rather than in series.
5. Drive the pump through a heavy gear reduction from the turbine, so that acceleration creates a greater supply of steam.
I just looked at your CNC, could you swap the pulleys over so the speed reduces (or get some different sizes to try) and then fit a larger collet, like an ER20? that way you should be able to fit a ripper in there. I never knew the catalyser would do that though, very cool (or warm ;-)
I am loving that you're moving into stronger and stronger parts for your projects. Keep pushing those limits!
You have upgraded the channel with that CNC! You could add an acumulator tank before the turbine to retain the liquid and have only steam going into the turbine. That's used on cooling systems to separate liquid and vapor coolant.
To create an area to pull moisture out by cooling would remove energy away from the steam and decrease the efficiency of the system. Definitely worth playing with.
Love it! I think the power source is great by far compared to 3d print one. To avoid waste try using it vertically and let the reaction occurs below with the output on the top. For the turbine, try using some pneumatic tools instead. They are much more capable of high torque at least.
i think adding an expansion chamber could come in handy. and rotate your catalyst chamber vertically, with the inlet on the bottom, and outlet on the top, for both the catalyst and expansion chamber.
Love this!!
I would add a high pressure reservoir/accumulator after the vertically mounted catalysts. This would need a high pressure feed pump, maybe common rail fuel injector pump for cars, easily capable of 100 plus bar. Add a pilot operated valve after the pump so as the pressure drops in the reservoir more hydrogen peroxide is added to the catalysts, the fuel pump has a built in return to tank so its always circulating.
Could also experiment using injectors to atomize the hydrogen peroxide over the catalysts.
The catalyst chamber and pressure reservoir would be at the same pressure so could be made in one high pressure vessel. I would use a small hydraulic cylinder and at least one pressure relief valve. The steam from the reservoir could then be metered through a valve to the turbine for desired power/speed plus having on demand steam without waiting for reaction.
Video idea: I've seen a few steam bikes before, but with this safer and more compact method generating steam I wonder if you could make a steam bike that doesn't require the extreme heat and flame of a boiler. Plus this is safer, and far lighter.
Hey Integza, how do you get good fits between your parts (e.g. bearings and blue disk)? Is it trial and error? Or do you know your printer's error and account for it somehow?
As far as limiting the waste, you can try and use a 12v fuel pump with the correct injector pressure rating and just use a cheap pulse with modulator as a signal generator to fire the injector. And as far as more torque from the flywheel you can try a pressure sensitive valve you can order them in a variety of pressure ratings. So that it builds substantial pressure before even trying to turn the flywheel therefore even more eliminating waste. And doesn't let the pressure drop below a certain point. Awesome video and keep up with the CNC router. You just need a bench top Mill and mini lathe and you'll be on whole new level of builds 🤟
I would really love to see those Tesla turbines again. Maybe they could power a small car with a clutch and high pressure air tank or some kind of steam from a chemical reaction!
Love your videos!
Video idea: You've successfully created all sorts of crazy engines, so how about the Adams-Farvell rotary engine, where the pistons are turning around a stationary crank shaft! :D
@sourand jaded radial engines have static cylinders, rotary engines don't. They're superficially similar at most.
@sourand jaded nothing unusual? You couldn't just "bolt them down to the frame backwards", they are completely different to radials *except* for having cylinders around a central point.
You should consider using loctite 680 for securing the shaft into your aluminum impeller. It works really well and you don't need to grind slots into your shaft
Also loctite 243 is great for keeping nuts from rattling loose. Just careful around thermoplastics
Will be awesomely glad to see V3. Darega taskete this guy!
Integza, you could enter the era of electric vehicles by recreating some Tesla creations and updating them.
Integza, vc poderia entrar na era dos veículos elétricos, recriando algumas criações do Tesla e atualizando-as.
Sucesso!
Quem sabe uma impressora 3d não vem pro Brasil 😍
Honestly I would love to see if you could use the turbine to remake a V2 rocket. I’d tell you not to put explosives in it but i have a feeling this video already puts me on some sort of list so it’s up to you man.
and how would a turbine propel this rocket??? you mean RE-MAKE the original V-2??
@@Nobe_Oddy the turbine was for pumping the fuel and oxidizer into the ignition chamber of the V2. The fuel was the propelling force, not the turbine.
ok
I think a good idea for a build video would marry this chemical reaction into a rocket with an r/c controlled throttle. You could even see this power your skateboard without the weight of the turbine and even see this take flight like the old pulse-jet winged bomb design w/o the boom of course! And you could even 3D print the rocket body & nozzle all at once after you figure out the proper nozzle for optimum thrust. Or maybe not? IDK I hate tomatoes too so either way this would work at blasting those across a yard or even blasting holes in them if strapped down.
Amazing video
I would love to see a multistage sugar rocket. I think it would make a great video. Great turbine by the way!
