    I was really happy to see this video! I'm glad you haven't given up on it. It's cool to see the progress even if it isn't yet successful. I like where you are going with this. I believe reducing as much friction and mass in the gear train for the timing/valves could help, It may be that the piston can't overcome that load. Thanks for the video!

    • @CamdenBowen
      @CamdenBowen  Год назад

      That's a good suggestion, The gears may create a lot of friction but from what I can tell most of its resistive forces are due to the compression stroke. Thank you!

    Lots of comments saying to 3d print in metal, or cast the parts, or you could use a 5-axis machining centre but I think the point is to see what can be done using what is at hand, a 3d filament printer, hand drill and a few tools.

    I think the reason why you keep running into issues with your engine is because you 3D print it out of FDM. Try SLA, which should help you get a much better engine due to its heat tolerance.
    I own an SLA 3D Printer and once tried to burn some sample prints from my SLA 3D Printer. It didn’t really melt but anyways...
    Hope that helps!
    Also I’m thinking about taking on this challenge myself, although my 3D printer is broken at the moment.
    EDIT: Oh yeah, another plus of SLA 3D Printers: they are great for air engines that NEED A LOT OF SEAL. Seeing that this engine probably runs into a LOT of sealing problems I think you should try using an SLA 3D Printer.

  • @a41capt
    @a41capt Год назад +2

    The way your engine backfired, I would look to the ignition timing. If you’ve got good compression, valve timing is good, but I believe ignition timing could be advanced a bit.
    All of my model engines took a considerable amount of fiddling to get them running since scaling down makes for difficult running.
    Also, butane, as well as all LPG products, tend to require s richer mixture than the longer chain hydrocarbons. This means a smaller venturi as opposed to one for naphtha (white gas, aka camping fuel).
    Nice work, interesting trouble shooting methodology!

  • @roarore8810
    @roarore8810 Год назад

    Making a engine with a really low bore-stroke ratio may be a good idea as it will want to run at a lower rpm and will give the butane more time to move through the intake and into the cylinder. And I know you already increased the weight of the flywheel, but increasing it even more may be a good idea. Single cylinder engines are not the best at idling smoothly (usually need to idle at 1500-2000+ rpm to be smooth) and with a weak power stroke I think it'd be hard to get it to run without an almost excessively heavy flywheel.
    I really need to get my hands on a 3D printer, I've been thinking of experimenting with 3D printed ICE's for a little bit, which is the main reason I ever discovered your channel. You've come a good way from the first video, I'm sure you can make it happen.

    Is there any chance your intake valve is too small? The fact that you can hear popping says that the engine has all 3 components of combustion. I think the only thing you may still be missing is just more air and fuel. I know with your cylinder head design it may be difficult to increase the intake valve area, but if you could find some work-around, it may fire right up
