My knowledge of steam engines is not complete so if I said something incorrect or you have something I missed be sure to let me know in the comments below! I've learned a lot through engineering and making videos with Hyce but obviously there is still a lot about steam systems that I need to educate myself on! Especially how to make a working valve gear...
You are able to adjust the temperature of the fire in the simulator, this is why you had difficulty maintaining a steady pressure. There is also an electric motor to avoid stalling when starting the engine.
The thing that's left out of this video is Ange the Great made this as part of a series on his sound simulations. All the sounds made by the engine are generated by a fluid model running, they're not canned sounds. A lot of his series focuses on the sounds for car engines, anywhere from I4 engines to V8 engines to 9 cylinder radials, and even a Wankel rotary.
The currant max speed achieved in this simulator is 4,691. Here is some instructions on how to get there. >Lower Quality (N+Scroll down) >Enter "Hell Mode" (spam click logo in bottom right) >Full heat >Slowly open throttle valve to 56% >Wait for temperature to max out >Slowly open water valve all the way
@@F_A_F123 I believe it only lowers audio calculation quality not physics quality. Because the game generates the audio based on the physics. Theres is no audio files in the game.
You made vacuum because you quickly cooled steam and it condensed to water, which has lower volume You can make the engine run backwards this way too! But you will have 1 atmosphere of pressure difference at max, so it won't be very powerfull (kinda like very first steam engine, it was working with vacuum too)
7:55 yeah I think it would want to blow up because the water hits the very hot metal and almost instantly a ton of steam pressure as all the water turns to steam
I would love to see this game released with an upgrade store! depending on how high of an RPM you get you can unlock things like steam injectors, double-acting valve gears, water preheaters, and larger generator gear boxes
@@johnhilton145 I've been watching Ange for quite some time. He always calls it a simulator, although he has used the simulator in an unreleased driving game
@@paulkanja High-fidelity simulators and games aren't mutually exclusive. If you haven't already, check out his great video where he updates the Steam game. In it, he implements a few functions suggested by a majority of the engine simulator community. If you also check the video there is many references to him suggesting it is a game rather than a software tool (Even the title calls it a game). I think the above comment is very much valid.
The creator is still working on a "DLC" for this (it's more like this was a demo that was never intended to be a game) in which you can blow the boiler, there is a johnson bar, all the mechanical noises are simulated (like brake noises and valve gear), and more. He is also developing a combustion engine simulator simultaneously. His channel is AngeTheGreat, he posts dev logs every once in a while if you are interested.
I love these videos because I learn so much about engines and steam engines which really helps to expand my knowledge of steam engines and normal engines
You should see AngeTheGreat's other videos on the engines and when his Engine Simulator comes iut you should definitley try it, it looks really interesting and will let you build and design your own engine in 3d
You know what would be really cool? A game where you can build a steam engine out of different components. Different valve gear, cylinder sizes and boilers and stuff. Then all those variables would determine how the engine runs. You could go from a little single acting, single cylinder engine to a ginormous naval steam engine. On that note, check out some of the stupendous naval steam engines of the ocean liners of old! Next level engineering.
Hey Kan, ive been watching alot of your videos lately and i just wanna say keep up the good work, and then i want to ask if you could show us how to build a vanilla differential or some other kind of way to build a car that has suspension with a piston engine?
no it just looks like it with the inverted colors. i have the game open now and when you actually apply the brake it wont spin reach rpms anything like that.
I like to (in hell mode) fill the tank full and close it off. Max fire until max temp is reached. Then slowly build up rpm with the smallest amounts of throttle until speed builds up then just go wide open for full max rpm. With the temp maxed you can keep maxed psi for longer to achieve the higher speeds. If you just max temp and psi then hammer the throttle wide open you won’t achieve the best speed.
@@TheCustomFHD there are certainly desktop steam engines. If the tea would take the place of the water it probably would run for a little while... until the tannin gunks up the valve, or maybe jams the piston.
@@Milamberinx yes, desktop. But pure tea? Seems unlikely due to the minuscule amount of steam (and lack of continuos steam, or any pressure thereof). Sterlins, like said, for sure barely work
When the ambient pressure increases the boiling point of water also increases Angethegreat explains it in his video on the simulator as well (if I'm not mistaken)
As @arandomperson8465 said, the boiling points of all liquids are dependent on pressure. At atmospheric pressure, water boils at 100 C, which is what is taught in school. What is not really taught is that at higher pressures, the boiling point increases
Fun stuff to simulate, but silly. Simulation does not address issues of RPM of engine. No discussion of engine structure and engineering, such as stress on parts, lubrication, vibration. Honda long ago made motorcycle engines run 20,000 RPM.

I love this type of informative content even though its not for everyone, keep it up!
Make piston engines with cams please i would litterally but. Maybe make like an Ls with pushrods somehow
Great video friend, and you're far too kind :P

Ange also make a engine simulator

A lot of his series focuses on the sounds for car engines, anywhere from I4 engines to V8 engines to 9 cylinder radials, and even a Wankel rotary.
Also all the parts of the engine are physical models, physically interacting.
At crazy UPS too (updates per second)
It is needed because you need sound to be sampled at 44kHz

It's kinda not fair to lower the quality

@@ScrewedByRNG then why to lower quality?
@@F_A_F123bc it's the first step in the process

From the Depths lets you build steam engines, though it may not get as granular as what you want.
@@EpsilonRosePersonal yeah I’ve seems FTD and it is very snazzy, but not Choo Choo enough

Wait, wasn't the brake on the entire time he was in hell mode?
I think yeah 😂
Kan 🤝 Hyce
Leaving the brake on
That’s what I came to say haha
no it just looks like it with the inverted colors. i have the game open now and when you actually apply the brake it wont spin reach rpms anything like that.
Walscheartz valve gear on such a simulator would be wicked!
That was fun, thank's for the time to make videos KAN.
You could give Besiege a try. It's a great physics game aaand you can build engines there as well!
DId you leave your load on for the second half of the video? Seems like it.
So today we learned that we need a better injector and the fastest way to power your pentagram engine is on the souls of the damned.
This is my favorite game I have almost all acheivments

I was just playing this game yesterday and know youre douing it
I can tell that this will be a great video🎉!
I wonder if it's feasible to build a desktop-size steam locomotive you can run on tea
there is a sterling engine that runs on tea. a steam enngine however? unlikely, it would be insanely small
@@TheCustomFHD there are certainly desktop steam engines. If the tea would take the place of the water it probably would run for a little while... until the tannin gunks up the valve, or maybe jams the piston.
@@Milamberinx yes, desktop. But pure tea? Seems unlikely due to the minuscule amount of steam (and lack of continuos steam, or any pressure thereof). Sterlins, like said, for sure barely work
@Poldovico Is that burning dry tea leaf to make steam from water? Or tea leaf with water for drinking?
@@TheCustomFHD Dry tea leaf used to boil water would be a thing. The question to start with, has a loop hole in it.
ANGETHEGREAT! he made a engine sim too
This simulator would be on steam! 😂
As I recall there has been a claim or two that Hya-sinth isn't an original idea leading back to this game in particular
Me and my best friend have had this game for probably a month or two
i think you left the brake on
at 8:12 he reset it
i would like to see you make a similar style of Steam engine in Scrap Mechanic
How does the temperature go above 100°c before all the water boils? or is the water level just an indicator for the amount of steam?
When the ambient pressure increases the boiling point of water also increases
Angethegreat explains it in his video on the simulator as well (if I'm not mistaken)

Ange the great said that he going to making a new steam enigne for his engine simulator where it has a inline and v engines
You don’t have too much pressure, you can press space and spin the wheel
When (if ever) are you going back to RRO?
the optimal regulator seting is ~43%
I was able to go 505 rpm because i let the boiler get full water and 50% reg then let it be for a while until it ran out of water at 505 rpm
How to make a steam engine even less efficient: make it a two stroke😂
Hia! (play stormworks)
agree
Hi kan can u help me with treat makers I have like know idea who tho make stuff
mouse over the a and hit the mouse button until the screen changes colors. then run it.
I saw AngeTheGreat's original video :0
hey look, it's my name on the side
I think I was able to get it stable at 4,907RPM being my best
you stil had the brake on
Cool
Choo Choo
Kan, you had the brake on for the most of the video...
I thought I turned it off when I entered Hell Mode... maybe I didn't
@@kANGaming i kept looking at the brake an it just was constantly on, it's very visual so it was easy to see that it's touching the wheel
%56 throlette is max optimum
Turn ur turbine on 👍🏻 generator I mean..
Hi kan
I have 28 hours in this game
Bread
Hi
Why didn't he open settings and turn of psi pressure for the watter pipes
I didn't know that was a thing
@@kANGaming The more you know
Stop releasing steam and turn down the heat!!
❤
Click the a logo many times you many have piss of the dev and you went to hell.
Yoooooooo

You need *some* unrealistically strong parts so that you can safely play with it
