    Fun project! I always enjoy your videos, you always have a creative solution to thorny problems.
    You can get much better performance from your engine if you lubricate it. Steam engines used hydrophilic oils that would actually be carried by the steam into the cylinders. If I recall correctly, animal fats (tallow) are particularly suited. The engine will also perform poorly when cold and uninsulated. You'll lose tons of power because it's all used up when the steam condenses back into water in the cold cylinders. Harvesting more of the steam's energy as it expands gives you the most efficiency (compound engines do this using cylinders of varying bores, high pressure cylinders have smaller bores than low pressure cylinders after them).

    @That_One_Guy_In_A_Band Před 2 lety +19

    Hi, steam locomotive engineer here, and I noticed that while your steam engine does work, it's quite inefficient, and has some potentially fatal errors. First of all, there's water in the cylinder, and this comes from using saturated steam. You could superheat the steam if you wanted, but the most simple solution is to add what are known as drain cocks to the cylinder. Basically, they're valves that you open for the first few strokes of the cycle, to allow the water to drain out. Also, the valve and it's timing, while useful for a simple engine, could benefit from being adjustable. Something like Walschaerts valve gear or Baker valve gear, with a "cutoff" to allow variation in the valve timing, and making the engine more efficient. Also, it seems to leak steam everywhere... I don't have a solution for that one, so just go with your gut on that problem. One thing I'd definitely suggest is getting a dedicated model boiler, like a Wilesco or a Mamod unit. Hope this helps!

    • @DeeEhm
      @DeeEhm Před 2 lety +2

      I also noticed that there were no piston rings on the piston. With the heated steam, I'm wondering how much blowby he was getting with everything expanding. Though the cylinder doesn't seem to hold much pressure so rings would pose an issue. You would need to solve the issue with containing pressure or design a piston that uses a lubricant as a seal rather than a mechanical seal.
      Like the rocket engine, you should try to measure useful work of this engine and then tune it as Mike G suggests.

    you can transform a fog machine to make high pressure steam. I already put instead of fog liquid, water.

Basically instead of boiling a large amount of water at once Doble steam cars flash boiled small amounts of water quickly. The idea was to have the water pass through the tubes and have the heat of gasoline heat up the tubes and turn the water to superheated steam. Jay Leno explains this.

    1. normally a steam engine has a much thinner piston
    2. that design of piston is designed to be used with a o-ring
    3. most steam engine will not use the flywheel for the valve timing. early steam engines used a round peice with and eccentric hole. later engienes used complicated systems that would take far too Long to explain in a comment.
    4. most stream engines will use a slide valve and a steam chest. the steam chest is filled with steam/air and the slide valve moves to allow steam/air to flow into one port that is uncovered and connects the other Port to the exhaust hole.
    5. alot of engienes use crossheads and crosshead guides to keep the piston rod from bending
    ofcourse there are exceptions however this is true for the majority of engienes

    As user C Moore mentioned, a steam turbine would be great! Just to see how much power you can harness from a particular heat source. Either run a driveshaft directly to a vehicle or turn it into electricity with a generator. Messing with the drive shaft gearing or the shape of the turbine blades could be fun trial and error.

  • @MattH-wg7ou
    @MattH-wg7ou Před 2 měsíci

    So interesting to me how big a role steam plays in our world. Almost every way we have of generating significant, consistent, reliable power is through steam. It feels like we're stuck in a rut somehow maybe? We literally split atoms...to boil water. Nuclear energy is just boiling water with extra steps.
    But, those old steam locomotives are such masterpieces of mechanical engineering! Animagraffs has a great video on the "Big Boy" steam locomotive. Really made me appreciate the all mechanical design of it.

    You could always add a little sewing machine oil to the cylinder to reduce the friction and that would probably make it so that it's less likely to jam or blow one end of the cylinder off.

    You should try redesigning and building or just making your own version entirely of Nikola Tesla’s peace ray or death ray to melt a tomato. That would be super awesome to see what you could do with that! For anyone that doesn’t know Nikola Tesla tried designing a defense weapon that directed charged particle beams.

    Video Idea: Take a page out of real steam engine history and attach a second, low pressure, piston to this one’s exhaust to scavenge the remaining power.

    You could use this concept of printing the engine from plastic to build a steam powered piston-propeller driven airplane if you can figure out how to lighten the steam production mechanism. You could try just a metal cylinder with candles underneath maybe. I have a feeling just using a steam jet to power the plane would probably be more efficient, though.

    Since you getting into aircrafts how about building a airship that is powered by an engine turning a propeller e.g. a two stroke engine powered by a small CO2 tank?
    On a airship you don´t need to worry about weight and lift as much as on a plane because you can just make the body of it bigger.
    And Helium is also pretty easy to get in vast quantities (the one for party balloons).

    [Video:] It's to late to suggest.
    But a closed loop with HHO burner. Yes the burner must be enclosed in a wider part of the tube with a mesh to extract the heat. You should get enough heat from the burner to generate steam outside the main loop. Water from the internal burn can be collected in the downspiraled copper tube to the HH0 generator. If it's enough water it might rotate some 3D parts on its way down.

    There's another engine that works both like combustion engine and steam engine, it's called Stirling engine, and this type an engine uses heat so that the heat pushes the pistons in the cylinders, it is also maybe better than steam engine.
