    It's the loudest Stirling I have ever heard but also one of the most fun looking I have ever seen.

    The crankshaft gear mechanism that couples all the cylinders is amazing machining.

      🔴 What Is Islam?
      🔴 Islam is not just another religion.
      🔵 It is the same message preached by Moses, Jesus and Abraham.
      🔴 Islam literally means ‘submission to God’ and it teaches us to have a direct relationship with God.
      🔵 It reminds us that since God created us, no one should be worshipped except God alone.
      🔴 It also teaches that God is nothing like a human being or like anything that we can imagine.
      🌍 The concept of God is summarized in the Quran as:
      📖 { “Say, He is God, the One. God, the Absolute. He does not give birth, nor was He born, and there is nothing like Him.”} (Quran 112:1-4) 📚
      🔴 Becoming a Muslim is not turning your back to Jesus.
      🔵 Rather it’s going back to the original teachings of Jesus and obeying him...

  • @Latheman666
    @Latheman666 7 лет назад +38

    Awesome engine! If you replace the aluminum displacer with one made from stainless steel it will work even better. A displacer should always be made from a bad heat conductor.

    • @osmankmbal1008
      @osmankmbal1008 7 лет назад +3

      Latheman's crazy machines I think aluminium is better cause its light weight and can work as regenerator to cool the air down when it goes from the hot end to the cold one.

    • @frankieromnimon5898
      @frankieromnimon5898 7 лет назад +3

      Engine operation will also improve, to an even larger degree, if an economizer is placed between the hot and cold sides of the engine (something I did not hear being mentioned in the engine's presentation). Come to think of it, the role of the economizer could be undertaken by a displacer with low thermal inertia, i.e. a good conductor of heat. Please correct me if I am wrong.

    • @doublestarsystem
      @doublestarsystem 6 лет назад +6

      Using steel for the displacer is a bad idea cause its too heavy to lift by hot air ...even cars pistons arent made of steel...think of a material like ceramic: very very slippy (zero friction) and heat proof ...if the walls of the cylinder are also made of ceramic the displacer can fit the cylinder with a squizey tolerance ( within micrometers) no sound will be heard...ceramics can also serve as interface between moving and fix parts so no lubrification (engine oil) is needed...no friction=no heat so no cooling system needed (Radiators+water pump)...isnt that COOL?

    • @christianrigolet3836
      @christianrigolet3836 6 лет назад +1

      @@doublestarsystem The history of the use of ceramics in engines is ancient. To build a piston and a cylinder with micrometer tolerance and get to grips with the thermal problems is a completely different topic. Yet to produce cost-effective is a thing of impossibility. Reality is the spoilsport.

    Wonderfull Machine!
    I fell in love with the Stirling cycle engine years ago. I used to go to bed thinking about the design and how i might make a machine with some decent power output. I can see that this is a nice design. Nice Job.

    • @johngillon6969
      @johngillon6969 2 года назад

      I built one, and i find the physics fascinating . No one around takes much interest in my engine. i just love to learn new things and to take an idea and create a working thing. not much good for anything. they are so in efficient, the most it does is just spinn the flywheel and spin and make a mechanical noise. Adults can have toys you know, and these are inexpensive and safe. Not like some fast car or airplane.

  • @martymcmannis9121
    @martymcmannis9121 6 лет назад +2

    • @johngillon6969
      @johngillon6969 2 года назад

      keep trying. I make these little toys, and i haven't ever tried one this complicated. don't give up. I feel lonely because most folks don't understand the pleasure of actually learning new stuff and creating something in your mind, and seeing it when your done. i am thrilled by a working engine, but those around me not so much and i am quite sure they just think i am just a strange old man. most folks just don't get it.

  • @kreynolds1123
    @kreynolds1123 5 лет назад +1

    Here's a thought, preheat the fuel with the waste heat comming off the cold side of the stirling engine. If your useing propane, as it expands it cools helping keep the cold side cold, and the energy used to preheating the fuel is recycled helping the burner get a little hotter.

  • @jeric_synergy8581

    Those linkages are a thing of beauty. I'm not quite understanding how the traditional displacer/power piston are connected.

  • @kreynolds1123
    @kreynolds1123 4 года назад +1

    Amazing.
    But i keep thinking the bottom of the cylinders remind me of hanging tube chime bells that can vibrate a lot of sound energy away. I wonder if you can make it quiter with an epoxy composite surrounding all the pipes at the bottom.
    Or encase the crank and pressurize the air in the crank case to 2 or 3 bar. I'm pretty sure you will be able to get more power that way.

      you can. you can build something like this. This isn't the first engine the dude made. you got to not be afraid to try. not be afraid of doing something that is a waste of time. you got to start off with simple stuff. If you want to do it, don't wait for someone to encourage you or guide you. I make engines like this, i made a bunch of simple stuff first. I got a mill drill on craigs list and a very old simple lathe.. there are a butt load of videos on lathe and mill drills. nothing more satisfying than learning new stuff and creating something just because it was in your mind. problem with videos is that this guy is really really good. i haven't tried something this complicated, and it does intimidate viewers.

      The Stirling Engine is much older than Stirling Moss, actuallu invented by the Reverend Stirling as an alternative to the steam engine boiler explosions. Boiler explosions were the result of poor maintenence and and bad operating practices.
