BURNING EXPERIMENT RESULTS
Переглядів 7814 роки тому
In this experiment we are burning wood in a small coffee can and pulling the burn gasses through a water bath. I mistakenly said 50 pounds of water in the video. We actually started with 40 pounds in the tank. This was about 4.5 gallons. The end result was 39.3 gallons left in the tank. The water turned brown and smelled of smoke and had an oily residue with surprisingly little sedimentation. T...

This is our 375 pound , 13 blade, 30 inch diameter Tesla turbine. The blades are 10 gauge spaced with 14 gauge spacers between the plates. Final top speed was 1900 RPM. The nozzle is a 3/32 throat converging diverging nozzle with chocked flow using 70 CFM of compressed air. Rotational kinetic energy can be calculated for those interested. A seal between the casing and the rotor was installed to...
REJUVENATION OF DEAD LEAD ACID BATTERY WITH OLD LAPTOP CHARGER
Переглядів 8025 років тому
Recharge batteries that refuse to take a charge. The charger is an old laptop charger i had laying around for years. It is a 24 volt 1.73 amp charger. This process did not happen fast. But has proven to be very reliable and hassle free. I have been able to rescue and fully bring back 75% of all batteries using this process. The only way to de-sulfate a completely dead battery i have found is to...

EXTRACTING HEAT, BOILING WATER INSIDE A BOTTLE DEMONSTRATION
Now that's an engine. Simplicity goes a long way.
As a veteran fabricator/Boilermaker I must say I love this project. However, it would be much more thermodynamically efficient to run that engine with a gassifaction/combustion system rather than steam wouldn't it?
What did you mean by, " Good luck fellow engineers. You wont figure that one. Have a good day." I watched your early years video. It would appear by your comment that you have become rude and arrogant in this process. 😢 I use to brag about your accomplishments. Now, I'd rather not share or like your vidoes...even considering unsubscribing.
Would you be willing to share your designs.
How i can contact you?
The housing outlets need to constrict all the way in to the disc ports, and the input angle is creating a lot of turbulence, it should be tangent to the discs. Losing a lot of power here.
Car engine
Could be multi stage with all that left over steam and thermal power
Is it turbine generator to electric ?
hey I am in China i am very interested in this, can I buy it?
It is only a generator if the speed at which the motor is spinning is greater than its syncrhonous speed. Otherwise, it is just a motor with a load on its shaft.
Any updates?
He died in a steam explosion. RIP
Прекалено много загуба на мощност
Go for it!
I like the idea
Imagine that with a housing and pump
Почему это звучит как v8
very steamy, chu chu
Fail engan
Ever since Justin Trudeau introduced this insane carbon tax, I have turned off the electric heat and I burn rubber tires in my wood stove saved $350 last month. Should have thought of that earlier. I'll get my money's worth just have to clean the chimney a little more often 1/2-In thick 8-in steel pipe encased in concrete😂
NICE!!!
Is that running off saturated steam?
Cool video! What make and model is the original engine? Are you using it for stationary purposes or could it be used to power a vehicle? Great project!
The ultimate de carbonization procedure.
Use hydraulic fluid or motor oil.... Steam doesn't grab onto the discs the way oil would
Amazing thank you.
It needs a flywheel
Very much not enough air
When I look at your videos, I see that you are ahead of the curve in terms of the common knowledge about this type of energy harnessing/energy production. I’d been watching this area for a few years to see how things developed. Looks like energy storage is a significant part of solution. I prefer steam because in a cold climate, excess heat is of value. In summer electricity use for cooling has big demand, and solar is abundant. In winter we have a lot less solar, and require heating burning fuel is necessary. Really like your ideas ! Thanks for sharing your work !
Can you buy the turbine ?
Try for a bigger fly wheel it will start easier
Your neighbours would be happy with this sound! Excellent job!
Where is Don? He had cool steam and alternate energy videos, did you jack his channel?
No hack. Just the wife posting some of her own content.
@@ourhouseisfull11 Okay post one about what you are doing with your wind and steam turbines lately, thanks.
Very inefficient and wastes a lot of steam
The efficiency difference between a converted 2.4-liter inline 4-cylinder internal combustion engine (ICE) and a purpose-designed triple-expansion steam engine would be significant, largely due to fundamental differences in design, thermodynamics, and operating principles. Converted 2.4L I4 ICE as a Steam Engine Design Limitations: ICEs are optimized for combustion cycles, not steam expansion. Their cylinder geometry, valve timing, and materials are not ideal for handling steam efficiently. ICEs typically operate with high RPMs and short power strokes, which are mismatched to the slower, longer strokes ideal for steam power. Thermal Efficiency: A converted ICE steam engine would suffer from poor thermal efficiency. The single expansion nature of its cylinders wastes much of the available steam energy, as the steam is not expanded gradually to extract the maximum work. Energy Recovery: Without a mechanism like a condenser or multiple stages of expansion, it cannot recover as much energy from the steam as a triple-expansion engine. Practical Output: The output would be limited due to suboptimal steam flow, lack of pressure stage optimization, and potential mechanical issues from operating outside its intended design. Purpose-Designed Triple-Expansion Steam Engine Optimized for Steam: Triple-expansion engines divide the steam's work across three cylinders (high-pressure, intermediate-pressure, and low-pressure), each optimized for a specific pressure range. This staged expansion ensures that as much energy as possible is extracted from the steam. Thermal Efficiency: These engines achieve significantly higher thermal efficiency because the steam’s energy is used progressively, reducing energy loss. Condensers and reheaters further improve this efficiency by lowering the exhaust pressure. Mechanical Robustness: Triple-expansion engines are built with materials and designs specifically suited to handle steam's high temperatures and pressures, ensuring reliability and longevity. Practical Output: They deliver consistent power with less wasted energy and better fuel-to-output ratios compared to a converted ICE. Quantitative Efficiency A converted ICE used as a steam engine might achieve thermal efficiencies of 5-10%, given the limitations in design and steam utilization. A well-designed triple-expansion steam engine can achieve efficiencies of 20-25%, which is significantly higher due to its staged energy extraction and optimized steam flow. Conclusion While converting a 2.4L I4 ICE to steam power could demonstrate feasibility for repurposing existing hardware, its efficiency would fall far short of a purpose-built triple-expansion engine. The triple-expansion engine, designed specifically to optimize the thermodynamic potential of steam, remains vastly superior for steam power applications.
They use tires as a fuel source at cement plants to save money and I think use it to flash cook the lime or something like that….
what engine is this
super cool! got my sub. could this be done with a one cylinder two stroke motor? id love to build a steam powered go kart
I presume he doesent change the camshafts ...
U ever thought about using the same principle to run a engine using vaporizer coils to replace the injectors.. the coils would be in an oxygen free environment so they don't explode. I think it would increase hp ans economy several times. Sorta like boiling fuel and lighting the fumes.
Need much more air
it get stuck because of thermal expansion, same issue with steam models i had when i was kid, obviously it can t work, the piston has to be with more play to compensate
I’m looking for someone to build a Tesla turbine for me and I was hoping you might be interested. Thanks Tom Martens
The solution when they force use to buy electric.
Man what kind of hp is this making
Nice welding job. Excellent job on the overall design.
Really nice job.
Put it ona dyno 😂
Nobody is taking into consideration the requirements to feed an under square engine at 1500 rpm . you have to make that cam in 2 0r 3 hundred psi...
imagine in a alternate reality where ICE engines were never invented and we just had steam engine to work with for transportation were would that technology be 100 years later?
THIS IS THE IDEA THAT SAVES HUMAN KIND FROM A HORRIBLE FUTURE.
