Water is the by-product of burning hydrogen and oxygen. As soon as he put that in there, I though the J in the exhaust would shut down the engine. It did not occur to me that it would get past the rings and into the "block"
There’s something indescribably beautiful about destructive testing, thanks to the advent of high speed cinematography. Seeing the exact point and moment of failure is just … so cool.
How did he not see the water damage coming? TBH, I thought the exhaust, given its shape would fill with water and stall the engine, not that it would end up in the bottom end. Still, EVERYONE knows who is even remotely familiar with oxy-hydrogen that the byproduct is water. He simply should not have been surprised having built an oxy-hyrdrogen generator himself.
@@tarstarkusz he really should have just run it on hydrogen, I'm surprised the generator doesn't separate hydrogen and oxygen, it's pretty simple to do, you just need seperate chambers on the cathode and anode.
@@tarstarkusz air has enough oxygen to allow for hydrogen to burn. that's why blimps that float with hydrogen can explode. there still would be water released but not as much, however he would use much more hydrogen as it likely wouldn't fully combust. fill a balloon with pure hydrogen and light a match next to it it'll give you a fireball.
@@nosch43 But how is air going to get in if you have a "pipe" shoved against the throat of the carb breathing in pure hydrogen? (check out 0:03 in the video). You can see the pipe shoved down the top of the carb and sealing against the sides. I agree there is plenty of oxygen in the atmosphere to allow burning of hydrogen in the open air. But to run an engine on hydrogen requires a connector directly to the carb and in this case he just used the top of the carb which would block any air and there is no other path for the air to get into the engine other than from the top of the carb. If you filled a balloon with hydrogen and put an electric igniter in the balloon and then tied the balloon with the wire going inside it so there was nothing but hydrogen in that balloon, it is not going to explode. If oxygen gets in it while you are filling it, that oxygen will combine with enough of the hydrogen to bust the balloon and expose the remaining hydrogen to atmospheric oxygen and the rest will burn.
The water in the crankcase is from when the cylinder sleeve pushed out due to the stuck piston. The block is hollow around the sleeve to allow the water to get right up against it. As a result the sleeve is what seals the water from getting into the crankcase. Most larger engines have an o-ring around the base of the sleeve though this is so small it may just be a tight fit with no o-ring
That's what I thought at first but I didn't see any sort of hole in the block the block was literally just solid brass and that little water tank was soldered right to the top. I'm going to check again but I'm pretty positive there was no coolant passages.

@@WarpedYT idk that is a very tiny motor and ideally hydrogen likes AFR's in the neighborhood of 30:1 I think stoichiometric is like 34:1.

Then factor in that, that wasn't the total water produced that was just blow by.. I could be wrong, for all I know you could have ran that motor for hours. It just seems, given the capacity of the motor, that even a 10:1 ratio is fuck all hydrogen being burned. I would expect that much water coming out the exhaust but not as blow by.
It's coming, unfortunately the factory where I'm going to manufacture the components has been closed because of the coronavirus since February. They are still closed to outside hopefully for only another couple weeks. That's literally all I've been waiting for I am so ready to do those
Could make the explosion sound effects you added in the slow-mo more believable if you find higher sample rate ones and slow them down to match 48khz. Maybe also add some ambient whirring and low chugging to the background in order to make the point at which the sound effects end less noticeable.
"where did all that water come from" you literally said it, the byproduct of burning the hydrogen and oxygen is water, with the exhaust angled up and cant escape and will go into any empty space.
During the slow-mo of the destruction of the engine it somehow seemed so determined to finish the job, even though it was surrounded by fire, the exhaust was catching on fire as it came out, you could almost make a movie using this as a format for a catastrophic engine failure.

Dude, I’m your biggest fan. I’ve subscribed, and also sent the link to all my friends. I only wish my Dad and Grandfsther could’ve gotten to see your videos. They were both mechanical engineers, and they built tiny steam engines that ran off an air compressor. This engine reminds me of what they used to build. I have 20 or 25 of them that I inherited, along with one actual steam engine. I would love to show them to you....
It's interesting that what finally fails is the valve spring - relatively minor damage. Reminds me of what I once read Rolls Royce used to do before the availability of computer simulation. They'd run their engines until something failed, tear it down to find the failure, strengthen that part, and then repeat, until everything was equally robust. It might be interesting to use a similar process on this engine. Maybe you could get it to be reliable up to 20,000 rpm! :-)
16:42 The gas was shooting out of that tank, due to the fact that you were forcing high pressure into the carb, and therefore it traveled into the tank via. the fuel line, and pressurized the tank's interior.
@@Bruce1Parsons Yes, that's at least true for hydrocarbon fuel, you can watch that process easily by lightning a match. At least in the match cass it evaporates very fast.
This was awesome! Great slow-mo during the blow-up. I'm curious about the water in the crankshaft as well - that looked like an HHO generator that was doing the electrolysis to generate your Hydro-Oxy mix, it makes sense that it burns back into water, and I know these are designed to be added to gasoline engines to "improve efficiency" with maybe dubious credibility if that actually works, I'm curious if you've done more with the HHO generator, and if you found any fuel efficiency increases from running it in a gasoline engine. Thanks for making cool videos.
MMC did some looking, it just doesn’t seem like it ever did happen. For larger loco’s a single would be far underpowered, and for smaller vehicles like speeder carts a two cycle single that can run either direction is far better suited for the job.
@@logantc.1353 true, it wouldn't be a practical powerhouse for a full-on locomotive, but I do have knowledge about such things, and though it may not have been documented in some way, there is a fairly good chance that someone somewhere (like Russia) has at least attempted to make a vehicle powered by a stationary hit-and-miss engine. Also, keep in mind that there are old tractors powered by hit-and-miss engines adapted to work on a moving vehicle. Also, "locomotive" doesn't just refer to the powered vehicle that pulls a train. It can refer to any vehicle that can move under its own power.
MMC OHH! I thought you were talking about a vehicle produced by a larger locomotive manufacturer or rail car company, or a vehicle with a purpose built hit and miss engine, in terms of one off/hand built I totally agree!
12:01 thats easy science: when you burn hydrogen, it auromatically reacts with the oxygen in our atmosphere and becomes h2o which basically water. A Part of thus water comes Out the exhaust in form of Gas, but a bit of the water becomes Liquid and stays in the engine.
The fuel was coming out of the vent because the oxy acetylene pressurized the carb and backflowed into the fuel tank.
That part had me mesmerised for a bit, suddenly made me think of 'boost referenced fuel pressure'
Do you use spark plug?
That and dislodging the cylinder liner caused water to go into the crank case.
iamtehstig shhh, let us imagine it heated up like the coolant reservoir and just boiled out

It might be interesting to use a similar process on this engine. Maybe you could get it to be reliable up to 20,000 rpm! :-)
haha pushrod go weeeeeeeeeeeeee
Saturn did that on their in house engines early in the company's history. I got to talk to the guy that designed the ignition system for those cars.
You should make the worlds greatest pencil sharpener out of this
I love This guy he is very educational I love little engines The jet engines are insane
“ if I learned anything from my buddy at whistlin Diesel...” 😂😂😂😂😂 yeaaah buddy

The gas was shooting out of that tank, due to the fact that you were forcing high pressure into the carb, and therefore it traveled into the tank via. the fuel line, and pressurized the tank's interior.
@The Shapeshifters Misale i do
The push rods were just flopping around while acetylene detonated through the valve rockers. That was awesome.
I died laughing when he dropped the juice in it and it sounded like a AR 15 going off
minute?
“Why is there water in the crankcase?” The byproduct of burning hydrogen is water
Love your enthusiasm for chaos.
Makes sense, that a non-hydrogen engine is full of water when running hydrogen, I mean it has to go somewhere.
Why do people assume its solely because of hydrogen? Water is a byproduct of all combustion?! Its a byproduct of fire.
@@Bruce1Parsons Yes, that's at least true for hydrocarbon fuel, you can watch that process easily by lightning a match.
At least in the match cass it evaporates very fast.
This was awesome! Great slow-mo during the blow-up. I'm curious about the water in the crankshaft as well - that looked like an HHO generator that was doing the electrolysis to generate your Hydro-Oxy mix, it makes sense that it burns back into water, and I know these are designed to be added to gasoline engines to "improve efficiency" with maybe dubious credibility if that actually works, I'm curious if you've done more with the HHO generator, and if you found any fuel efficiency increases from running it in a gasoline engine. Thanks for making cool videos.
Only 50k views. This was awesome. My 10 year old son wants that engine. It's a great learning tool.
1:41 what the 😂
Fucking
finally someone points it out.
Nobody:
Yt subtitles: [music]
are they wrong tho?
@@MatyThePotato I don’t even remember commenting this lol
@@MatyThePotato nope
Crackling sounds is just amazing
This kind of playing around could cost a man a finger.
anyone know how he lost it

oh now I can't unsee it...
When you’re explaining where the water goes you showed a picture of an old Single piston engine and called it a locomotive.
Yeah, I noticed that. Funny thing I don’t think hit and miss engines were ever really used to power locomotives.
I'm sure someone at one point used a single-cylinder hit-and-miss engine to power a locomotive...
MMC did some looking, it just doesn’t seem like it ever did happen. For larger loco’s a single would be far underpowered, and for smaller vehicles like speeder carts a two cycle single that can run either direction is far better suited for the job.
@@logantc.1353 true, it wouldn't be a practical powerhouse for a full-on locomotive, but I do have knowledge about such things, and though it may not have been documented in some way, there is a fairly good chance that someone somewhere (like Russia) has at least attempted to make a vehicle powered by a stationary hit-and-miss engine. Also, keep in mind that there are old tractors powered by hit-and-miss engines adapted to work on a moving vehicle. Also, "locomotive" doesn't just refer to the powered vehicle that pulls a train. It can refer to any vehicle that can move under its own power.
MMC OHH! I thought you were talking about a vehicle produced by a larger locomotive manufacturer or rail car company, or a vehicle with a purpose built hit and miss engine, in terms of one off/hand built I totally agree!
14:56 THE FRICKING SPRING MELTED
Woulda been cool if he would have opened up the throttle...
Pete Mason static engine lmao no, go learn what static is, and it has a carb with a throttle.
@Pete Mason Then what do you call the lever on the opposite side of the mixture screw?
It did have a carburetor but I had the throttle wide open the entire time.
@Pete Mason 😂🤣
Lol. Water!!??
16:28 I Would love to know what music this is

It's like art in motion spitting fire like that, fuel giser and all.
11:56 When you burn hydrogen inside an oxygen atmosphere you get H2O, water. That's why it produced all of that.
Nope, far too much water in the crankcase to be exhaust gases. It was leakage from the water tank somehow.
Me: mom, can we have braaap stututu?
My mom: no, we have braaap stututu at home
Braaap stututu at home: 7:26
this engine has a pretty violent cam and it tends to have a lot of valve float when you run it at high rpm that's why the cam was wearing out so fast
12:01 thats easy science: when you burn hydrogen, it auromatically reacts with the oxygen in our atmosphere and becomes h2o which basically water. A Part of thus water comes Out the exhaust in form of Gas, but a bit of the water becomes Liquid and stays in the engine.
