HAVE A NICE DAY
When I was 22 in uni about to sit my finals in experimental physics a girl aged 18 said to me that I wouldn't understand the meaning of the word cool. Your Stirling engine is cool. :) I'm 63.

Thank you Sir ..
Hello,
You are most welcome and I struggled to understand how the Stirling engine works but I got there in the end.

Peter Nolan are u really a Ph.D in physics...?
only phds write youtube comments like that lol
Hello from a Cork engineering student !
After 4 years now, this video appears again on my recommendation. It was my first science project and I choose to make this engine works. Sadly it never worked, but I didn't stop trying until it was the due date. I submitted as it is, my teacher still giving me a good grade because I tried to craft this. For the rest of the stories I just explained how it should be worked and what material I should use, then the teacher understand the situation so I'm glad that it turns perfectly fine. 😆
When mine starts to spin it doesn't start playing music. Maybe I am using wrong pest spray?
ya ya
TadasG258 dude I fucking love that comment 😂
Your lovely sense of humour made my day.. loved your comment. 😀😀
now just imagine how Smart were those people who made industrial revolution...
All thanks to a Frenchman and his precision machining
Omar Camarena actually it was indian dude
@@ramade9040 thanks for the info spiderman
The industrial revolution was an accumulation of scientific ideas and technological advances by many people in many places
Its a Stirling Engine. He Was Scottish and invented it in 1816
This is a remarkable engine as the designer managed to put together a few components which not only are easily available but they are not so sensitive to tuning a successful engine. The fact that the displacer is steel wool makes it light and not only a displacer but a regenerator as it retains the hot and cold ends so the air changes its temperature gradually as it goes through. What I find most remarkable is that the diameter size of the power piston is the same size as the displacer and then it is the stroke that arranges for maximum volume of air to "power transfer" the force to the power piston. Perhaps a little more attention could have been given to the crankshaft and the overhang of the flywheel. Perhaps two flywheels at either end would have dynamically balanced the engine for those who require a better performance. I would say full marks, as the fine tuning should not get more marks than the ingenuity that went into thinking out the layout of this engine. Congratulations.
Sir..what is weight of displacer..
Plz sir on engineering day I want perform this engine..🙏🙏🙏
Thanks for this awesome review and suggestion . thnx a lot
Omg
You have created a marvelous father son project, bravo sir. I bet a few kids out there will do great on their science fair due to this.
I'm pretty sure this how the engine in my last car was made.
Did u drive a lawnmower😂😂😭
It's a stirling engine... I don't think so
@@lazukk3735 genius
finally a 3rd world friendly version
I made it! It really works!
Great content man. Just a small tip. I’m a photographer and I can kinda help with the quality of this video. Get either a white piece of cardboard or a large sheet of white paper and use that as the background with your white table. Then get some studio lights. Or any white LED lights that are kinda bright. You will have professional looking videos. You might be wondering how photography might have anything to do with videography. It uses a camera, and good quality pictures/videos.
Edit: the lights are as cheap as $40 and get up to atleast $2-$300
The simplest homemade Stirling Engine to date great job
I'm 12 years old binge watching youtube videos about electrical engineering and mechanics what am I doing with my life
bro is 16 now😦
Music is annoying. Good job on the thing though.
Measurments on can, piston and crankshaft would make it easier to get it to work
nice build. love the "use what you got laying around" attitude :)
It's working, ItS WoRkInG!!
Great !! Please do share your video .
Could live without the music, but either way its amazing.
Oh the humanity! So many pens lost their lives in the making of this video
wow...and I spent a month machining an aluminium block to create heat sink and piston, honing a metal tube to make cylinder with which fit perfectly with the piston, cutting a perfect circular flywheel from a metal sheet and hours of hectic moment in creating a perfect angled crankshaft and couldn't make it work in the end
lol! I am on my 3rd try. Damn thngs!
@@captainprototype187 ..wow. I admire you. And good luck
Very impressed - simple and cheap to build and it works.
I made this in arts in crafts people thought i tried to blow up the school
the fuck 😂😂
? lmao
wondering's depending the situation... i've builded a giant one delta type flat piston on a little town and 1st probe it simply turn into burning and even made explode the main combustible can BUT HEY SAID ABOUT ME IM A GENIOUS HEHE....( case is it was an attempt ( later REACHED) to gift power for long time TO THE WATER PUMP OF THE TOWN AND THE ONLY SOURCE OF WATER ).... once i have it working propperly more or less a week after "the accident" y done replaced the source of heath with a more or less big "disipator" builded for me with old yet destroyed 4 a big storm aluminium roof and lot of work....simply painted it with smoked black none reflexibe hight temperature painting and that was all....3 months later leave such town and the pump were still working perfect without any "electricity" that was year 1986....
OF COURSE it just work WITH the SUN ( the source of power) OVER the sky and none cloud....but IT WORKS !!....las time i have news from such people IT WAS STILL WORKING ( year 1994) after that have none idea...
Lol?!
Good easy to build working engine. Major crankshaft runout and flywheel that far out makes it worse. A tweak here a tweak there would smooth it out a lot. To go that far and not spend a couple more mins would be a shame. Put a spool/ spindle on one end and with light string wind it from ground level and pick something up. Measure its weight / distance lifted and as best u can time it took lift it vertically and using 550 ft .lbs per second you have a workable dyno. Calculate RPM and now have torque as well. Make modifications and try to extract more power/ efficiency. Just a thought....would be a great learning tool for any jr. Engineering student.
Pro tip: If you're using an aerosol can, make sure all of the propellant is still INSIDE the can, before you cut it.
Not only that, but as you saw on the video, you ABSOLUTELY need to use a can of pesticide.
next to an open flame if possible
What is the use of electrical connectors in this video
@@prashastiawasthi4159 they stop the horizontal cable from moving
@@captfox533 Thank you
and one last question
it is necessary to use plastic body pen with stainless steel tip
and why he use sand paper
As cool as this is, that is the sketchiest flywheel I have ever seen
It wants to be a bird
Is that the new Bugatti engine?!🤔
Anibal Babilonia no, yugo engine
Anibal Babilonia what do u have against bugatti
Cutting a pressurized container, and one that held poison at that. Hahaa, love it. This definitely was not filmed in Australia
You helped me with my project.Thankyou
Any changes you made ?? pls suggest others ...
Finnaly a video that shows a working prius motor Thank God now i can figure out why its going threw so many Tampons 🤔🤔🤔😂
Nice build, I am probably going to build one myself, although I might change a few things... not sure what they would be yet, but I will certainly give it a try! Liked and Subscribed!
Thanks buddy . 👍 Please let me know what changes u made in it . If you need any help just contact me. Good luck ..
Creative Skillz can u send me the dimensions
Made beautifully
it is really working
Mine not working plz help
How to pore water
This is the type creative mind with good hands that GM ahould hire as their engineer's. Instead of just giving up and sending them overseas.
I want to build this and connect power generator at flywheel. Voila! Free energy4lyfe
You would have to make it substantially bigger than this though.
Yeah it will be helpfull for aunt may
Another gracefully of falling
Creative skillz background music is too loud
turn your volume down stupid
@@oofig i think he was referring to the end, so he could hear the engine.
Just found the next project to do with my kids :)
best video
Is the room temp air acting as the coolant?
Might be. But actually steel wool ( displacer) is acting as condenser itself. When air passes from bottom to up it cools .!!
Good evening! I'd like to ask your permission to use your concept and over-all design as our school project. I'd really appreciate it. Thank you!
Much efficient way of converting heat to electricity.
Hei man can you give us the measurements for thouse cuts and bends like how long is the tube that u cut
U can use soda cans too
Dont really need exact measurements
thanks a lot it helped me a lot for my school project
Bhai ye keise chal gaya
Plz help me my email id is mjkundan2016@gmail.com
does your project is runinng
hey! Could You please help me? i dont know what am i doing wrong but mine does not Work..
Bro oil it
Hi there I have done this several times and it still doesn’t work.It would also be a huge help to say what you are using in the video.I think it is the wire connecting the displaser to the crank shaft.I really hope you can reply to this👍🏾
By the way great jΩβ(￣▽￣)ノ (￣▽￣)ノ

90° thumbs
Carlos Escudero holy crape you’re right
Hell yaaaa
Wonderfully simple.
can we convet this energy into electric energy adding DC motor to shaft
rushikesh jadhav course it can
rushikesh jadhav in theory yes but this is a very low power engine so you would need a small motor with a tiny load
where the card circle spin you join motor it spin motor so produce eletricity
lol yeah if the crankshaft wasn't so bent, maybe you could get a belt on it.
rushikesh jadhav yes we’ve been doing that for years
I like your honest chanel
Please how to make magnet free energy
Well done.

if i use an aluminum soda can for my container, will the candle melt the bottom of it?
When does the VTEC kick in?
Ahahahahhaah
After shutting off
Thanks bro very helpful
Just wondering, why did you cut out a notch on the fly wheel? It just seemed a bit out of balance.
Quantum Radiation it improves the rotation of the shaft
@@n0anime342 how
The people in Fallout are gunna love this guy.
verygood !
nice
Yes! Thank you so much this is exactly what I needed.
GREAT WORK
Do you need to glue the hole where the wire and balloon meet? for compression purposes?
thanks brother for give nice idea
Thanks a lot !!👍
iyansh Singh Hada
Please can you add materials and methods on the description next time? Would be much appreciated 😍
We are asking a lot of question but he is not give any reply
What other material can i use as substitute tu steel wool? And also can i use aluminum can?
My project isn't working, I have done everything same as shown in video still its not working plz help me
Maybe try googling how the engine works an was designed. If your thing follows the same rules an pattern then you should see results.
Do I have to use the wool as a displacer? Could I make a piston head?
bravo 👏👏👏
Make the piston hit a pizoelectric crystal and connect it to wires that then connect to an LED. That way u have an LED powered by candle. The most redundant light source ever made.
what is guage of copper wire
Very nice I appreciate this home-made Stirling machine.
Thanks a lot !!
I tried to make with small coke can... but I failed to make... I`d like to get some tip from you ... Displacer need to be loose???
Don't use coke can and body spray cans as it is made of alluminium and is good conductor of heat so the upper part of can gets heated fast. There must be temperature difference , so try to use TIN can . Mostly Room freshener cans are made of TIN , try to use them.
Yesss, the displacer should be loose and move freely in the cylinder . Try to use light weight material for displacer. U can also add a counterweight equal to displacer weight on the flywheel . It will definitely work .
VERY NICE instructions
what did you filled up the cane with.
yes this thing is look like wiar aplinses clinar. (aare tar ka kucha)
It's dish washing scrub used in kitchen.
this is called stirling engine and can work by air
Thanks! ur guide is so kind and make me to understand about steiring engene
And using a ball pen to connect the two different wire is good idea!
Thanks for watching .
Best vidio
What else we can use instead of that iron wool for displaced......????plz let me know......
What are the measurements of the big circles at 5:10?
I don't think that they matter
We should keep some water inside container? (cover with rubber)
It's not working .plz show me the weight calculations.
Just imagine at some point this was cutting edge technology
which material are good to make
Now this is actually helpful
which type of scrub is used????
you also use cotton wrapped with aluminium foil instead of steel wool
sulu sujith bro...did you tried it with your idea?? Plz tell me
scotch bright
xoxoxoox
no problem it is nice
what did you fild in the tin can. what is the (displecer)
It's dish washing scrub used in kitchen .
comedy vs tecnical expert pm aka steel wool
Creative Skillz should displacer touch the bottom of the cylinder ?
Steel wole
That displacer is used to trap the heat and produces hot air.
How did you bend those coat hangers into that shape so good?
nice bro good ...😘
Adnan Kha
Nice
great
mine doesn't work help pls?
change your washing scrub :)
pls englisch :)

great job❤
I have channel,
AviArts&Craft
see it if you like,
help each other to grow.
all the things I have done correctly but does'nt work
rajesh bernard u need to do all calculation related to weight of rod and avoid leaks is any ur size of displacer is less or may be heavy for air to push u need a very good quality of calculation of dimensions for this to work
coool! lol it would be cooler if it dosnt vibrate off the table XD, but good work!
instead of that steel wool what all we can use
plz tell me fast
You can use a smaller coke can or cardboard .
thanks to me too
styrofoam
nyx211 what's that
great idea. how you work it out?
Tried 3 times and mine still doesn’t work pls help
Zinedine Amani your power piston and displacer might be incorrectly aligned
motor hidden inside the can. lol
Very nice. . The fly wheel should be two not one on both ends for well-balancing
Awesome video
Which scrub should be used in making this
+Creative Skillz
Could you please tell me how this works?
Mira Hussein as the air heats up and rise past the displacer it creates a pressure witch moves the displacer downwards, than as the air cools it creates a vaccum , witch repeats the cycle but the flywheel helps significantly to keep the motion going
vincent milot thanks
isn't it necessary to add water to boil and make steam? is air sufficient? thanks!
yes the air temperature differential is sufficent to make it operate, espescially with an engine as small as this one, some engines with the piston the size of a small diner plate it can operate with only a 2 degres difference between top and bottoms, so basically just letting the engine sit on top of ice can make it function
vincent milot thanks! :D
Good idea
please anyone help me!!! mine doesnt work and i have to submit it this week
someone already have a try to build this? bcause i want to ask something, the electrical connector are they have effect to make this machine works??? pls someone answer me cause i need to complete it before thursday
This is late, but no.
