You need to visit Huntsville
Do they have one of these babies there ?
@@integza i think Dustin's there...
Living there was the best time of my life
Just moved there :p
@@rogerrinkavage Is Dustin a RDE?
I big thank you to Dr. Myles, Dr. Eric Bach and Dr. Quentin Michalski for the help they provided!
Never thought that you go to Berlin for Rocket engine research... how was my home country?
Why don't you make a future video on ways to make stronger resins and filaments or materials for your 3d printers for your future projects for example using graphene for the resins,
Will it work?
I don't know
But you will get the ball rolling.
Can you share the Japanese Paper? Its really fascinating. The link in the description seems to only provide the Model. Really great Video!
Thanks for including the lab built rocket and the individuals that built it, I love to watch your videos and it's really cool to see how there are people in academia doing research on the same thing you are 3d printing! Would using something made by the Explosions and Fire channel help ignite the RDE? It might be worth it to reach out to him and see what types he'd recommend.
Discord link isn't working, can you send a new one?
Maybe you need to add an aerospike so the detonation has something to spin around. The Miles-Bach-Michalski engine has a central spike though it was truncated. Another thought is to move the primer to the back of the device instead of the exit port and angle it to induce rotation. The MBM engine had their starter in that position. Also being in the Northern hemisphere you will want to spin anti-clockwise so you aren't fighting the Coriolis Effect.
Would that not make a bad engine design for practical use, a jet flying north to South across the equator, for instance how would that affect the rotation?
@@EbenEliasjri don't think the coriolis effect is that big of a deal
@serbianspaceforce6873 That's what I said. He was saying to have it spin anti-clockwise, and I said, "Is that not a bad design? What if the plane flies north, what really matters is the airflow through the engine and pressure gradients not the spin...otherwise we would notice a huge issue in modern turbo fan jet engine planes... any way your right and I agreed 👍
Learn to keep ideas to yourself. You're not getting paid to share information
@@EbenEliasjr this engine has no moving parts. Only the shockwave rotates. The Coriolis Effect would be slight and I trying to think of ways to tweak performance especially at the small size @Integza was using.
How that tiny engine made that metal rod glow and bend is insane. Imagine this little engine being 100x the size.
Just when I thought there were only so many types of rocket engines, my mind gets obliterated....tomato level obliterated. Phenomenal Joel!
Nothing like the smell of burnt tomato in the morning !
@@integza does it taste good?
@@RainaPCB Mmm...saucy!
@@RainaPCB no, tomatoes are disgusting
i think there is over a 1000 types of rocket engine as is, not even counting ones lost to history which last i checked is estimated to be in the hundreds, oh and integza the shotgun shell ignition is actually a technique that started with British tractors then a few planes, loud but fun....makes me wonder if a vacuum based rocket is feasible, you know, one that pull's air from the environment like a jet engine
My favorite engine you've done so far!
Mine too !!!
I agree
Not many researchers are working on it. A road less traveled is most adventurous. This is something I am looking to pursue.
Uncoolable but fun
Yes I know
A future video for a non-conventional propulsion method for a quadrocoptor would be amazing. Something a DIYer could make mostly with a resin 3d printer and hopefully no more than $1000 of purchased parts.
I admire your curiosity, intelligence and drive to do something simply for the sake of learning from it young man. Good luck and safe travels my friend.
After following Integza for a while, I think the real question is: when is he flying to the Mars using his 3d-printed engine?
my prediction is he will have a 3d printed rocket flying to space in 12 years. so its bound to happen eventually
True lol
I wrote the same thing with the Moon and then I saw your comment.
He’s gotta take a golf club with him so he can swing at a tomato under Martian gravity😅
@@camplays487 what!?
Suggestion: Journey to an actual standalone rocket/plane/car - I really enjoy your content but working towards a practical, containerised engine for moving vehicles would propel you to anti-tomato legend status! I know it would be a much longer project, especially getting pressurised fuel into a reliable lightweight stand-alone format, but maybe collaborating with more like-minded people from e. g. the RC sector could make it a lot easier - In any case I look forward to seeing what comes next!
Yeah!
Hell yeah
I had the same thought, but on a slightly larger scale.... I've seen people build rc aircraft that are friggin HUGE.... why couldn't one be made to carry a payload of say 200 pounds? 250 pounds? And if this can be done, would it be possible to use an engine like this since the tanks are relatively small... I have been designing a " personal aircraft " for many years, without the needed knowledge to be successful, but using my gi bill I am currently going through on an aerospace engineering degree.... I am hoping to tinker my way to a fun and REALLY dangerous toy some time in the next decade.
Peter Streipol please help us!!
@@ryanrich9186 what's your email? I think I could help you out a bit here... just finished my first test flight building one out of my garage (theoretical 500 lb thrust)
Joel, I love how professional you remain while having a complete disregard for your own well being.
Great video and you really keep things very interesting.
Would like to suggest building something to move / levitate heavy objects with vibration / frequency.
I’m a researcher at the University of Central Florida specialized in RDE’s and Pressure Gained Devices. I have been watching your videos for a while and would love to talk more if you are interested. My next video idea would be to make the RDE combustion chamber annual and attempt to observe the actual rotating detonation. An additional idea would be to create a planar RDE which would use this exact same set up and would just be used to observe the detonation wave.
Upvote this please ⬆
My issue with this type of engine is that they are INSANELY AND EXTREMELY UNSTABLE. While I know hopefully in the future we might be able to implement these types of engines there is a reason why haven't seen that happen.
I did see P&W got a contract for them, but it will be interesting to see if anything comes of the research.
I remember during my capstone someone gave a presentation of these and I highly rolled my eyes at them.
As an AE we already have enough problems with airplanes trying to blow themselves up.
@@seemlesslies As an A&P I can confirm, turbines like to blow themselves up haha.
It would be interesting to see an RDE used in a sort of “afterburner” theory behind a turbojet. If it was centered on the inner axis and the compressor section could direct compressed HydrOx fuel air mix you *could* potentially have enough pressure to drive the combustion wave.
I guess you could think of it like a shotgun, inside a cannon hahaha
Buddy am interested to listen to your talk and view on this technology, can you share your insta id, we can connect there and talk further!
Give this guy some likes. I want to see the collaboration video.
As an alternative to the primer from gun shells, you could go to a well stocked tool store and ask for the "powder loads" or "strip" for a Hilti gun (aka "Powder-Actuated Fastening Tool"). The nice thing is that those come in multiple strengths, so you can pick one that works for you.
Alternatively, depending on Airsoft rules in Portugal, you might be able to buy the 209 primers from Airsoft suppliers, as they are used in Airsoft Grenades/mines.
I don't know the rules for Portugal, but I think an alarm gum might be legal, it's basically a gun that can sound like a gun but not shoot anything.
I recall Mythbusters setting off .22 rounds with electricity. Those are rim fired cases as well.
The DX460 is fully automatic, with a 27 caliber charge. Wood, concrete, steel to steel, she'll throw a fastener into anything. And for my money, she handles recoil better than the Simpson or the P3500.
The gunpowder in the shotgun shell won't explode until its confined. Pistol powders burn faster than shotgun powders. The explosive in a modern primer is usually a combination of things based around Lead styphnate.
As alternative sources for detonation;
You might be able to use something like Armstrong's mixture (usually available premade in pull string fireworks, kids capgun toys, either the red paper strips or the little red plastic 'loads').
Or, the mercury fulminate from party poppers, snap pops, adult crackers, ie the fireworks you throw against the ground.
10:51 Integza made an entire anime movie in like 30 seconds! Good job.
Need a follow up video to this!!
I love your videos!, create a drone powered by a rocket engine!
Y E S
That would be too expensive though. 4 ROCKET ENGINES on each side.
Also the RC gear would be too heavy because you have to throttle each engine to make it lean in a certain way.
Also throttling a rocket engine is not as fast as slowing down a BLDC Motor.
@@slatetechnologies1724 :(
@@netanelelbaz7247 What?
@@netanelelbaz7247 So, a couple of things to consider with this idea. Most drones achieve rotation by taking advantage of the rotational inertia of the propellers. But rocket engines don't have that, so simply replacing props with rocket engines will result in a hover-only drone.
Instead it would be best to do it the way NASA did with their Project Morpheus; a single rocket engine to provide hover thrust and smaller engines to stabilize it and provide side thrust.
Which brings up the point that NASA's already doing that.
Also, don't beg for likes.
Integza, you are incredible, this engine has been used solely by research labs. Amazing work.
You a couple of years ago: I want to build a decent chemical rocket motor.
You, sometime next week or so: My warp engine is running too hot.
The shot gun shell's detonator is Mercury Fulminate. This is also used in the blasting caps for dynamite.
Video idea: Build an Ion drive propulsion engine!
It can be quite simple, MIT made one that’s pretty much just a positively charged cable parallel to a negative, they made it generate thrust, so Basically it’s a glorified air purifier with a cable behind it.
There are some other more complex concepts like the ones they use on spacecraft (every SpaceX star-link satellite has one), although they are more complicated and expensive.
The plasma channel just did a video on one I think

Very interesting, maybe you could get that ignition to reach resonance with the chamber using a sound pressure sensor and an arduino
This was one of the most interesting things I've seen in a long time. I did even know this existed and you taught me something new.
My theme suggestion is to create a load cell to compare the different engines you've made so far. Seeing these home-made 3D printed engines is great. But giving people context like how much force this engine is producing, and maybe how much fuel its using compared to other engines you've made, might be even better.
The part with you standing up against the door when it went off reminds me of when I used to work for my local utility. One day I was at the plant while they were doing an inspection of one of the gas turbines. I didn’t have much to do that day so I stuck around and watched. They finished up and went inside to spin it up for peak and I was just watching from the corner when one of them turns to me and says, “you’re in the no no square”
Apparently, once the generator has synced up its voltage and phase to the grid, a massive breaker trips to connect the generator to the grid. If that connection fails for some reason there’s the possibility that all the power that generator is making will explode out, ripping the massive steel breaker door off its hinges and sending it straight through the no no square and whoever happens to be standing in it.
That's insane. I'm more curious about that than anything else now lol

when i first watched this on release i didnt notice all the glass in the room, a proper detonation might have blown out the glass on the unit behind you etc,
What if you had the internal chamber surface raised to add to the spinning to help keep the flame going and may give more thrust
I've recently been stuck on spinlaunch, I've watched so many videos on there machine. And after seeing your videos here's my idea,
I think you should build a miniature spinlauncher, you have plenty of knowledge of rockets and other propulsion devices and could use them to power the spin!

This is a super cool vid! I wonder how our world would be so much better if forgotten and discarded tech and ideas had never been discarded and forgotten.
In the US our hardware stores have a brand called "Ramset" that uses primers to set nails in concrete. The primers are about $14 for a box of 100. They should be cheaper than cutting up shotgun shells if you can find them.
It's so cool to see how every video his design gets better, materials get better, and his success rate improves.
Idea: I would love to see you use a piezo pressure sensor with an oscilloscope and a high speed camera so we can see whats really going on and maybe improve the engine. ( i know high speed cameras are very expensive but maybe you can lend one locally or from Dave of eevblog)
I have a feeling that a pressure transducer that is able to read such high pressures would be ridiculously expensive. But it would be rad to see
@@Takatakyongcars have detonation sensors
@@dtibor5903 Those are acoustic, specific for a frequency, and not exposed to an environment harsher than a warm engine block.
@@Takatakyong I mean if acrylic can hold the pressure its not that high ;) If not maybe a throttle/throttle valve could lower the pressure to the sensor range
Could you use a glow plug for your initial combustion to start the spinning detonation. It should provide a stable & consistent heat source. To ignite the rotating combustion ??
What if you used some type of impeller to rotate the gases before they enter the detonation chamber, or another way might be to introduce the gas at a 90-degree angle into the det-chamber? Would that help to initiate the rotation of the wave?
Damn dude I can’t wait to see the engines you’re making in 3 years. Every video you improve your building technique and they work better and better

@@leocabaret7050 I am so excited for this man to start printing metal engines
RDEs are typically an annular design with a center spike (similar to aerospike), so you could potentially try using a cooled center spike to guide the rotating detonation wace around the circumference
Edit: In addition, the detonation wave propagates around at the inlet of the chamber so your ignition source/detonation seed should also be closer in that area
That's what I was thinking. If you just have large open combustion chamber, the combustion doesn't really have a path; you just have to hope it'll stick to the outside wall.
If you read the original paper they specifically say that it's achievable without inner cylinder. But it probably makes it easier.
Instead of having the fuel go through to try to cool the center you could just have the feul or air cool the outside wall like on the space shuttle rocket motor
RE your comment about the central spike, that had also crossed my mind. I didn't even think about where the detonation should start. Thanks!
Another problem which becomes obvious if you open up his 3d file is that the injector is placed in quite bad manner that oxy and fuel won't be mixed in time.
Edit: the paper he referred to has initiator 65mm apart from the injector surface. I don't think it should be close to the combustion area. Plus, geometrical bump from the initiator might disturb the shockwave. You don't want to have shockwave echoing around especially because it doesn't have guiding inner cylinder in this case.
I loved the rotation detention engine. I have an idea to make a radioscope generator but don't if it can be done
Good to see those safety glasses protecting your forehead. Very important, especially while peeking around the wall at the tube potentially filled with H2-O2 mixture.
This is so awesome. Pretty insane that we get 5 min of incredible footage that probably took months to plan and bring together
This guy is insane, that's some amazing high speed footage too
Also, using a smaller engine to start a larger engine is not terribly uncommon. They're called a pony engine usually, and a lot of industrial engines and tractors have them.

(Up, and to the right.)
You can make a suitably sensitive primer type powder using Armstrong mixture from matches.
The gun powder you used is actually smokeless powder, it’s nitro based and burns slowly at stp but burns much faster under pressure. Black powder (the old sulfur and charcoal stuff) burns faster at STP but doesn’t increase burn rate with greater pressure.
That is not true BP does burn faster under pressure
@@mikker32 even if it does nitrobased gunpowder is more powerfull
He didn't use gunpowder, he used the primer. The primer is usually a high explosive lead salt.
BP also drastically increases its burn rate when confined/under pressure, but not as much as smokeless powder.
The level of your videos are improving everytime, not only in design and performance, also in post production, clips etc.
100%. It's also time to let the pseudo-Tesla look go. Ultimately it's distracting from the presenter himself, and his message. Schtick only goes so far.
Absolutely, this is one of his best yet!
And very slowly, safety! Lol
Hey there Mr. Integza!!! I just wanted to say that gun powder does explode. It just needs to be put into a container. When you ignite the powder it quickly turns into gas (keywork: quickly). When the container can no longer hold the pressure of the gas released by the gun powder then the container rips apart allowing the gas to be expelled forcefully in all directions. That's an explosion.
That RDE was very, very impressive 😮😎 I'll have to look through your other videos to see how you got on 👍
This hands down is your best project yet, and that is saying something since your other have been better that the last for nearly a year straight now! thank you for this channel! keep it up!
Two ideas for future videos: use one of your amazing engines to power an RC car, or do a comparison video, comparing some of your engines based on thrust, fuel consumption etc.
Cooling a spike in that time is near impossible, I would try ceramic hoping that the detonation does not shatter it
Hello, you are doing quite advanced plasma thruster experiments. I'm curious about the voltages used between the electrodes, the current and what working gases they use. As far as I remember, the best would be noble gases, such as argon and xenon.
Congratulations and best regards 😀
u really need to buy a lathe an a mini mlll, u would have the mill converted to cnc in no time an then u would be able to make some really insane stuff. i started with 3d printers, ended up with 10 fdm an 2 resin printers then i got a cnc router/laser cutter engraver but it wasnt able to do metals like i wanted or at least not without quite a bit of money spent on it first so i got a lathe first an really enjoyed using it so i got the mill a couple months later an its been fun, alot more hands on compared to the 3d printers an i still find my self making the models of the parts first 3d printing them an doing a drawing on paper that i use when im actually using the mill to help keep up with all the measurements but u really need to look into them at least a lathe if not both, but as a suggestion dont get one of the 7x10 12 14 lathe get something alittle bigger an i promise u will be thankful u did. the small 7x14 lathes are ok to learn with but they just are not rigid enough of out the box to do real hard steels without it being painfully slow so buy something that comes with a bigger cross slide than the 7x an u'll be good but with a lathe u would be able to make most of the stuff u would need for ur projects, plus it would be nice seeing u growing as a maker.
You are really crazy! Please keep going! :))
I SHALL !
You know if you build a simple wire EDM lathe you can make parts with tungsten, and I hear that handles heat pretty well
Tungsten is about $100-$350 per kilo on average. And tungsten is *heavy.* A 4 inch cube of the stuff weighs 41lbs. (18.597kg)
Yeah he really likes to limit himself to 3d printed prototypes. It would be cool to see him get into more advanced kinds of machining on the amateur/hobbyist level.
tungsten is extremely expensive, heavy and hard to machine, and EDM lathes aren't exactly mainstream equipment.
even just upgrading to aluminium and brass would allow him to do so much more, and if he gets the equipment to use aluminium and brass he could also use some steel.
let's not skip half the ladder and go straight from 3D printing to actual rocket science, that would be a bit silly.
there's no such thing as simple wire EDM lathe
Unfortunately, tungsten is also very brittle. Tends to crack and handle pressure and vibration not very well. Even so, an alloy containing tungsten maintains many of its thermal properties without inheriting brittleness.
this engine is just so cool. from the looks of things, it seems to be very similar in design to an aerospike jet engine, but instead of just having linear air pressure, it spirals it!
at least ti'm pretty sure that's what it's doing. from how their design looks, i think they aren't just using high pressured air, i think they're actually spiraling the air around the central cone to create that high speed shock wave needed for detonation to actually be useful. otherwise it would just go straight no matter how powerful the detonation is.
basically, i think the thing needed to cause the spiraling effect to occur consistently, would be to angle the extremely high pressured air tubes either clockwise, or counterclockwise around a fixed central cylinder, like an aerospike. that way the high pressured air actually spins the fuel, rather than just pushing it out faster.
At times like these, I wish i were better at 3d modeling.
Modern shells have smokeless powder which is different from blackpowder which is what was the original gunpowder.
Can’t wait to see a tomato vs the next RDE 😈.. impressive project btw! 👏😎
rde's are the future
I swear every video gets me more excited to see what the next one is. the rocket engine experiments are so cool the way you do them
I think the issue might have been that you're not spiraling the airflow before it gets to the nozzle. That seems to be the way to get the detonation spiraling.
You should put some sort of rod in the middle for the detonation to rotate around
A very neat test! I don't think you got to actually make a rotating PDE - but that is a descent attempt. I would love to see either form of 3D printed PDE actually taking off up in the air. It probably will have to be a theathered flight test... But I am doing more than just asking - community effort, right? - I'm also offering - I am more than willing to machine parts for the project too!
Someone get this man to the top of the comments
Idea as part of the next video: a proper (transparent) blast shield! With the explosive nature of projects on this channel it could come in handy!
@@Mr.Beauregarde did you make a bot to detect and tell people to report scambots‽
If so, you are awesome!
Just a thought, and a question... Is there a annulus in the zone of ignition? I assume the primer fires into the chamber tangent to the inner wall. I wonder if you could get reliable rotation with a cylindrical/conical part attached to the forward bulkhead that would help confine and direct the detonation to propagate in the correct manner.
modern shells/bullets don't use gunpowder that silvery stuff was gun cotton it burns faster and doesn't make smoke the same. the primers are high explosive a very small amount; lead styphnate, antimony sulfide, barium nitrate is some of the ingredients in boxer primers the most common type of primer.
I like how much he never lets anything get him down, he keeps saying n trying.. it’s great!
Primers used to be mercury fulminate, but now they can differ between brands in their composition. The main thing is the powder, it must be compressed very tightly to itself and in a confined chamber to achieve the reaction speed you want just like it is when the shotgun shell is put together. It can also be rather hard to ignite properly which is why the primer is used for repeatability.
If he uses some kind of burst disk to momentarily contain the powder, he might achieve detonation
The "Centerfire ammunition" article on wikipedia goes into detail in the primer chemistry.
Short form: mecury is not used anymore, modern compounds are really complex and contain lead, although some "green" ones are starting to get more popular.
Yeah, it's funny how they switched from Murcury Fulmenide when they figured out how bad Mercury was... But what they changed it to was Lead Azide, because they didn't know how bad lead was yet... Now the standard is some kind of weird organic compound I can't remember the name of.
Well, unless you got ammo made in the third world, then it probably still uses lead and mercury compounds.
Isn't it usually lead styphnate now?
@@jacobalberty according to Wikipedia, half of it is. The rest is a combination of other stuff. At least in the US. In Europe it might be different.
You should try building the German Bell involving mercury and electricity spinning at high speeds in spheres to generate lift. Like the how you say flywheels before flywheels on old steam engines.
You should try making a rotational detonation engine powered remote control car or boat once you figure out getting the engine to run with a rotational wave for an extended length of time.
oh man integza this might be my favorite video you've ever done! the break in the middle where you're playing the japanese song and cut the tube in half with the little effects and stuff is so great.
Wow.!!! Now including interviews with scientists and engineers, shows how genuine your work is.
Your humour is what makes your channel, pure class.
I look forward to every post you do.
Primers typically contain either Fulminate of Mercury or Lead Styphenate unless the world has changed since I read that. Also Shotshells use faster " burn rate" powders, pistols as well. Rifles use comparatively slow burning powders. Reloading manuals published by Speer, Hornady, and others usually have a chart of comparative burn rates.Containment is what makes gunpowder "conflagrants" go "bang" instead of "phizz"
I believe if you add a little bit of restriction to the nozzle of the engine, like the metal one in the lab, it will allow for a little bit of pressure to build on the inside which might help promote better detonation. It seemed that you had an original detonation followed by deflegration
I don't think you need restrictions on RDE. Whole point of RDE is that the exhaust is already supersonic without use of nozzle.
@@dongleseon8785 then how come the metal one in the lab has a type of nozzle?
@@3ch0_17 I think that's just a inner-cylinder that has narrowing ends? The whole thing looks quite straight cylindrical to me.
@@dongleseon8785 could possibly be. But I'm seeing that the size of the exit is smaller than integzas design
@@3ch0_17 I guess that would make a pressurized fuel mixture judging by the flowrate they use. Which would help greatly if your goal is to make a lot of thrust. But would the 3d printed part of integza withstand that kind of pressurized explosion...?
Did…did you just build a rocket motor that…actually worked?? As someone who’s been following your progress for a few years (or at least it feels like it) I am very happy and proud to see this
The lab engine used a metal cap over the tube which forced the engine to decide it's rotation. With your engine you might get some rotation but you can't see it since the exit is a hole. you probably should try to restrict the exit point but then get ready to run. It will be like a bomb for real if you make the opening too small. I suggest trying to use the worse quality air for combustion so that it might have less force but you can abuse the cylinder more.
Nice video. Anyway to incorporate RDE with a turbine at the end? The output of the RDE rotates and so adding a turbine may create a more efficient engine….? Hopefully
I kind of want to see more from this RDE guy. Super interesting subject and he's very engaging! Also that setup is absolutely rad!
I love watching the evolution of your content from your first engine tests, keep it up and the quality keeps getting better!

7:32, okay I don't know how this happened, but this is the first video of yours I've watched, and when I got to this part I couldn't believe it because I literally started this show yesterday.
Just a note for future projects. Instead of harvesting primers from shotgun shells you can get what is essentially just the primer on its own. Its commonly used in some nail guns as a way to drive nails through harder materials. No clue if you need a special license for it where you live though.

Could this be used to feed a small turbine/generator combo in an efficiencient way?
That would make for a really compact hydrogen powered generator with a high output.
Pluspoint if it can run on ordinary air instead of pure H2.
Any chance we can get a link to that Japanese paper?
this is actually insane, ive been watching you religiously since you started, going from pulse jets to actually pushing forward hobby solid fuel rockets
God bless you mister. I really like the reality of a RDE. I didn't know there was a higher form of combustion that hasn't yet been developed. What a blessing you are, 3D printing engines like a mad man. Keep up the good work!
Question?
Can an RDE be used to spin turbines really REALLY fast & how can WE use it???
Could u use magnetic propulsion to launch spacecrafts using traditional engines only after the craft has left a mag lev track that is arched upwards
Thank you - the external experimental scientific input was a great idea! You are really working hard to deliver knowledge on a very easy an comprehensiv way! Thanks!
Thanks so much for this video. It's been my ambition to build a tiny RDE for a while now, and now I have a few critical questions answered and new resources I hadn't unearthed yet. Keep up the amazing work!!
It wasn’t just the F1 but the SSME also had problems with acoustic instability as i recall
3:59 i mean 400 grams of second/s air is about 0.887 lbs or just under 670 cubic feet per minute. 3x less the airfuel mix ration required for regular combustion engines in streets cars with 400-500hp, which run on about 2.5-3 pounds of air per second, or 1,200 grams.
more powerful deflagration combustion engines that have superchargers run on even more air. a whipple supercharger adds about 1,750 cfm (cubic feet per minute) of air or 141.225 POUNDS per minute, or 2.3 pounds more second. so an engine with 500hp stock that has been supercharged can be utilizing 4.8 pounds (2177.24 grams) of air every single second.
there are even more outlandish engine builds with two superchagers, for turbo chargers, or two prochargers which add EVEN MORE AIR
but at a cost of more heat due to turbulent airflow, and having to run the engine at higher revolutions.
TLDR; rotarty combustion engines are capable of being more efficient with air/fuel mix ratios than car engines.
You’re a massive inspiration. You make high level research accessible and understandable. Part of me wishes I was still in physics.
I appreciate the fact and I am humbled that as basically an English-only speaking guy, folks from other countries are making so much stuff in english. Thank you.
I am inspired by your work, it educates me a lot. I like the fact you are funny at sometimes very educating.
Erased is amazing and I've only seen parts of episodes. It's on my need to watch from beginning list.
I almost immediately added it just from seeing a couple parts that is when I could take my eyes away from it.
I really like this engine. There seems to be a really high frequency sound, even ultrasonic when it was running on your trip, and possibly in your lab. If you used propane which is widely available in cylinders of different sizes instead of hydrogen, you could still produce a detonation with a relatively clean exhaust. If you could use air instead of oxygen and sustain the rotating detonation wave that would be fantastic also. If you took several, say 5 of these units made of extruded clay cylinders and placed their exhausts in an axial bunch, and then twisted them with front and back endplates like a manifold, you could put a greater path length in a shorter package. If they were made of ceramic they could tolerate the heat better than metal. The nice thing about these RDE's is that they could run at very high Carnot efficiencies. Ramjets have a low theoretical efficiency because they depend on the Ram effect to compress the air. RDE's could get around that by performing the compression rotationally and thus centrifugally. The figure of merit would be, like fusion, how long can you run one of these things sustainably if mounted to an RC model. It would quickly vanish from radio contact, but you could use ham radio or ISM band frequencies and a larger antenna to track it.
