my son made a steam(air ) engine for a science project. getting the valve timing was tricky. a great uncle explained supplying more volume(bigger line) of steam would help. in the end to display it at the science fair it would have to be run in an explosion proof box . so a video tape was used at the fair
@Ethan Stam it is possible the vhs tape is somewhere but i wouldn't know where to start to look and don't have a VHS player anymore. the piston was a copper pipe cap so the cylinder may have been copper pipe also. i would guess he found the plans on line. i recall it showed to use a tin can to generate steam . i nixed that idea . had a 5 gal. pressure cooker but i think those are limited to about 15 psi which wouldn't run it. air pressure would run it but i think you had to use your finger to get it started
Great Technical work. Stars to you. All it needs is pressure, steam achieves much higher pressure due to its internal energy stored as heat. This heat will allow for greater kinetic energy conversion. You simulated it perfectly. Although steam will cause material expansion, still a good test.
As a child, a friend had a steam engine similar to this one, and I always had the idea of making something equal, with this you have taught I think I have solved it, my friend, I congratulate you for your teaching a thousand thanks and greetings from Argentina.

For those of you who are smug about operating this engine on air, In the Navy, in port, we would use compressed air to operate bilge pumps, feed pumps and eductors- it is a legitimate motive force and the main benefit of the piston driven steam engine is that it indeed can be used with both sources very effectively. So now you know.

Awesome job man! I love the way you made this sweet running little engine “freestyle” so to speak without a garage full of expensive high end tools. This video was really inspiring and interesting! This is the first video I’ve seen of yours but I’m definitely subscribing! Looking forward to seeing more of your stuff! 🤙
you will want the eccentric crank to be at a 90 degree offset to the main piston crank, that way the engine will be timed so that the valve moves before the piston does. There are other videos online that go into more depth
Wide World of Trains they always had lathes right back in the day. They just would have been powered by wind turbines or water wheels back then. It is even possible to turn wood with a foot treadle or bowing action.
@@WideWorldofTrains I must admit it would have been a lot more challenging machining parts that require high speed lathing put it could still have been done with gearing reduction methods. There was no demand anyway as metalurgy still had to catch up to create the high carbon steels that required this process. Even as recently as the 1920s ships of the stature of the Titanic were built with relatively crude and impure steel. Real progress was made by the 1940s to create high speed engine parts for the war effort.
@@MrDegsy69 Jay Leno has a working steam engine from Circa 1820 in his garage. I believe its from England and had it rebuilt after he bought it. They had to machine some parts themselves since Home Depot didnt carry spare parts LOL PS a video is on YT
@@WideWorldofTrains interesting video. The example you cite is a static balanced beam engine. They were very useful for static water pumping duties in the mining and tunneling industries. I am lucky enough to have the Manchester Mueseum of Science and Industry nearby that has working examples of this. Additionally we have the East Lancashire Railway between Bury and Rawtenstall that runs live steam every weekend of the year. I absolutely love the smell of live steam and the sulphurous smoke clouds from the chimney stacks. The hissing of the steam and the clanging of the massive wheels is pure drama. You could not fail to be overawed and hypnotised by this sight at close quarters. We had some class A4 Pacifics on the line last year!
Machining a steam engine from a kit is like playing a song from sheet music. Making your own steam engine of your own design is like writing a song and making the instrument you play it on. This is art.
@@manickn6819 i thought so as well! I would definitely have wobbled. You normally do this sort of thing with a sawing jig powered or otherwise. Its possible he may have finished the slots off with needle files and a very steady hand.

Действительно!!! Если направить поток воздуха на лопости куллера под определенным углом он тоже начнет вращаться , причём еффективней и мягко, вот только для чего?
No steam, but it works roughly the same as with compressed air. Now make a small boiler to supply steam for the engine, this is very easy to do using a 1" threaded pipe and two caps, I'd avoid solder as it will get weak. I've been working with steam boilers in steam sterilizers, and the maximum pressure we work with is about 50psi, just 3.4 bar.
only need a more complicated valve and a cover for the other end of the cylinder and it would be double acting. Not much point for it though in this instance
Love every bit of it. . .if you had cut a small trench-tracing around the piston circumference and insert an O-Ring around it, you get better compression and throughput with compressed air and also heat is not a concern because its not steam gas but cold compressed air. ... Thanks for sharing. . .very interesting.. .
I'm pretty sure that this is just an example being run off compressed air instead of steam. It's a steam ready system, it was just tested as safely as possible.

Making a 'steam' engine..... uses compressed air.
Well, it works in the same way. And he didn't make the other part yet.
same thing, they both use pressurized air. it's hard to make the steam part that small.
Both are interchangeable
its the same thing, but instead of hot pressured water vapor he just puts pressured air into the system.
