    The reason your car got a 1:1 rotation between the propeller and the wheels is because your gears at the front were a different ratio. This is also why you had some issues with the first propeller not moving very much. If you do a 3:1 ratio or something it might move easier with the first propeller

      That energy can be captured and used if you are standing still, that energy can be used if you are moving. That energy differential has nothing to do with your speed relative to the air or the ground.
      If you make a small enough, efficient eniugh system, and you capture enough of the energy, you can divert enough power from the differential in the wind and ground to move a craft.

      This is false, because in the last blade pair test, he used only the treadmill, which it still was able to go faster than the treadmill itself. He did three different tests; Just the treadmill, the treadmill and the fan, and just the fan. Different blades with different pitches will have varying levels of success.
      The first one failed with just the treadmill, so he added the fan, and it still failed. The second one failed with just the treadmill, and succeeded with the fan added in. The last one succeeded with only the treadmill, so adding in the fan was more or less for fun. Not only that, but the last one succeeded with just the fan as well.

Dereks old explanation, new explanation, and integza's explanation all came together for an intuitive explanation in my mind.

    I’m sure you tried your best, but by adding the fan you broke the experiment. The whole point of using a treadmill is to move the ground instead of the air, so if the car moves in the opposite direction of the treadmill it moves faster than the wind, since the air is stationary. By adding the fan, you had to make sure that the car moved faster than the wind of the fan. Unfortunately it clearly didn’t move faster than the wind of the fan. You can see this because the string attached to the frame went forward instead of backwards. So unfortunately the was too much friction in the gears or the propellor wasn’t optimal.

For some reason you didn’t catch the not at all subtle explanation that his design OBVIOUSLY has a TON of friction because DUB just look at it! I don’t even think he uses metal on metal bushings let alone bearings, getting the gear ratios correct, getting the blade profile perfect…
      He doesn’t have to do those things because 2 people have already done it and as a pre-requisite for you commenting on this video you had to have watched the other video that try’s to explain how this car works that DOES have a working scale model on a treadmill.
      So he isn’t responsible for making a working scale model…
      He said he is just trying to explain it differently.
      Because even though for me the first time I watched the first guy explain it I was like oh shit duh… why don’t people understand that theoretically this makes perfect sense and someone has already shown it working at scale and in reality.

  • @jaorlowski
    @jaorlowski 10 หลายเดือนก่อน

    The way i understand it is that you have 3 points of reference: Wind, ground, vehicle. Drag (wind-vehicle) will accelerate the vehicle against the ground. In turning the wheels and turning the propeller you put additional air in between the vehicle and the wind, adding more momentum. So it's basically like an afterburner. Like an additional cushion you propel yourself against from. It's not a vacuum after all.

    Max speed is reached when W => P,V

    @kaylor87 2 ปีที่แล้ว +16

    I watched both of Veritasium's videos on this, as well as Steve Mould's, and I still couldn't wrap my brain around the effect. In this video though, YOU finally broke it down in a way that something clicked and I now can understand what's going on.
    The propeller is BACKWARDS; the wind would normally spin it in it's natural direction, but the prop is mechanically geared/attached to the wheels in this backward orientation. When the wind blows, rather than working to spin the prop, it instead just PUSHES the whole vehicle contraption forward (just like any object in the wind would move forward, as long as friction is forgiving enough).
    As the wind pushes, the car is rolling forward and the wheels are turning, which then spins the prop in the BACKWARDS orientation. Because the prop is spinning backwards, it continues to act as an efficient sail, and the wind keeps pushing the car forward until vehicle speed matches air speed (minus friction?).
    However, because of the special propeller shape, with enough speed, the prop eventually ALSO starts doing ITS job, of making a high and low pressure pocket. Because it's now spinning, while the whole car is also still being pushed forward by the wind, we now have two methods of thrust rather than one, overcoming the speed of just the wind sail on it's own.
    As long as the vehicle is designed in such a way that friction is low and propeller thrust is high, the outcome is an acceleration vector in the direction of the wind, larger than that of the wind itself. I think I get it!! 😊 In my opinion, Integza, you've won this one!
    The only thing I will say that Veritasium did do better was the model car. He continued to work on the design (with the help of a friend) to eventually get the car to a point where it CAN drive faster than the treadmill, without the need for a fan as additional force. Because you used a fan AND a powered treadmill, that's definitely cheating and does not actually demonstrate or prove the point you're trying to make, so the example is a little lost/nullified... That's okay though! Your easy-to-understand explaination made up for it 😊😊 Thanks for your fantastic and educational videos, Integza! ♥

      it seems to me that it would make more sense and perhaps be safer to put the prop on the front side of the vehicle. And instead of one large prop. put one on each side of the front of the vehicle. and put a pivot on them that would allow the prop to rotate to be perpendicular to the wind from whatever direction it is coming from. I would also try with a 3 or even 4 blade prop.. or perhaps even use a prop that spins perpendicular to the ground.. which has the ability to catch wind from any direction (360 degrees). When i get my 3d printer i might make one and put video of my design on youtube.

    In the case of thin airfoils (sailboat, hang glider), the air flows the same distance over and under the airfoil. The flow under an air foil is essentially pushed down, and the air flow over an airfoil tends to follow a convex shape (up to a point, if the speed and/or curvature of flow is too much, vortices form, reducing lift and increasing drag), due to viscosity and to avoid creating what would otherwise be a void, reducing pressure. Faster air flow coexists with the lower pressure just above the upper surface of a wing, and slower air flow with the higher pressure just below a wind.
    As for DDWFTTW carts, a propeller is used because it is efficient, not because of its resemblance to a tacking sail. For example, consider a model river boat driven by a paddle wheel. The paddle wheel is driven by two spools being turned by wires being unwound from the spools by being pulled backwards, geared so that the wires move much faster than the paddle wheel. If the wires were attached to two posts in a stream, the boat would move downstream faster than the stream, with nothing resembling the tacking aspect of a sail. The key factor for the boat and DDWFTTW carts is an effective reduction in gearing, so that a higher speed, lower force is geared down to result in a lower speed, higher force. For example, assume there is a 10 mph wind, and a DDWFTTW cart moving downwind at 15 mph. From the cart's frame of reference, the ground is moving at -15 mph, and the air is moving at -5 mph, 3 times as slow as the ground. This would allow the speed from the ground to be divided by 3 and the force from the ground multiplied by 3 before losses are taken into account. Perhaps after losses, the force is multiplied by 1.5, which is still enough to cause the cart to accelerate faster. For your model, its most likely that the pitch of the propeller is too large. With a smaller pitch and larger diameter propeller, the speed of the thrust is reduced, but the force of the thrust is increased. That was the issue with Xyla Foxlin's model (too much pitch, reducing pitch and increasing propeller diameter solved the problem).

    For the video idea: You've already built a Stirling engine and we know that it turns a difference in heat into rotational energy. From what I heard, this process is reversible. So add a motor to the Stirling engine and see if you can improve the design to create a heat pump and generate a noticeable heat difference. Bonus points if it can actually be used to cool something.

    and for the people wondering how it can accelerate more and more on the treadmill, yes its possible but the energy comes from the treadmill motor itself. the propeller connected to the wheels causes the wheels to require a higher force to spin which slows the treadmill down but the treadmill motor counteracts this slowdown. so the energy in that case comes from the treadmill motor! cool right?

    2: Place the cylinder on the edge of a surface that is off the ground.
    3: Place 3 fingers from each hand on the cylinder slightly closer to you than the center of the cylinder.
    4: Push down with your fingers evenly until the cylinder "pops" free from your fingers.
    This should create backspin on the cylinder and forward momentum which, if done right, will cause the cylinder to lift or float as it moves forward.

      It's force x distance of the rotor vs. force x distance of the wheels minus various efficiency losses. The issue is the conversion of a rotational distance to a linear one and any mechanical advantage that could be used to convert applied force into additional distance on the output end. It should go faster until the force needed to have the cart move forward via the wheels is less than the force available to the turning rotor. Add in the time factor and it's power-in minus losses equals power-out.

On our first test the propeller worked too well. It was so fast it moved the gears in the gearbox which disconnected it from the pump and made it spin freely. One of out propeller blades got launched into the ceiling and another almost hit one of out classmate. To be fair, it was initially designed to power a two chamber pump which we had to switch to a one chamber pump because of issues with connecting two pistons to one windmill and a lack of time to fix said issues. In the end, we swapped out the gears, better secured the windmill in place and it worked perfectly. Lucky for us the two blades weren't damaged too badly and we were able to reattach them with a bit of glue.

The low pressure in front of the sail pulling it faster than the wind behind the same sail eventually equalizes because of the on coming air pressure.
    You could do this same experiment on water by replacing the Sail with a big wind blade that's tied to a Prop under water(if you didn't couple it to an under water prop the Wind blade would just pin wheel).

      Also I think the important thing that make the car in this video work is there are two things moving at different speeds ie air and ground. the cart can basically use leverage to go faster than the difference of the two.

    The varitasium video showed treadmill working with no wind. Your video is adding energy to the system to prove point. I love the prototype, it just looks like there is too much drag and friction in the system to be a working example.

    You're mixing two frames of reference here.
    To use the threadmill example, where the car is moving forward in the air with the ground moving backwards underneath it:
    - The wheels drive the propeller
    - The propeller accelerates the air backwards, creating thrust.
    Now let's move our perspective to the ground being stationary and the air and car moving in the same direction:
    - The wheels drive the propeller (same same)
    - The propeller slows down the wind behind it, creating a low-speed area behind it. This is where the energy comes from to go faster than the wind.
    Say the airspeed is 20 kph and the propeller accelerates it with 15 kph in the opposite direction. The resulting airspeed is still forward, but at 20-15=5 kph.
    It's a wonderful almost counter-intuitive system, but once you grasp it it's simple and elegant.

    sail boats can also go faster down the wind, if they go zick zack. Thats because of the additional force of the aerodinamics behind the sail (plane), when the wind is passing the sail a little bit sidewise.

  • @iivarimokelainen
    @iivarimokelainen 2 ปีที่แล้ว +66

    By adding the fan you've increased the relative speed of the "wind" to threadmill + fan, so the car has to go forward faster than the fans wind, on a threadmill. That's the whole point of the threadmill. With your setup even a wheel will go faster than the threadmill with sufficiently fast fan. Boo.

    • @Poldovico

      The design is still very much possible, but yeah you need to measure the air speed and add it all up to prove integza's model works.

    Love the combination of science and silliness (sillience?).
    Your video helped me to understand.
    The moving car is stationary relative to the wind but a rotating propeller still generates thrust in still air.
    As far as the free energy argument goes, without the propeller, the car won't go faster than the wind no matter how much surface area it has. Any surface area in excess of that required to overcome mechanical friction can gather the energy required to drive the propeller.
    Sorry to say, but I like tomatoes.

    Video Idea: for a future video maybe you could create a glider launched with rubber bands that uses the principles of drag and lift demonstrated in this video, maybe using a propeller, to extend its time in the air.
    Also tomatoes are disgusting.

    • @JesseHughson
      @JesseHughson 2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      This vehicle relies on having contact with both the wind and the ground at the same time in order to extract work from the energy differential of the two media.
      One way a glider may be able to do similar is to be large enough to span two different air currents, using the difference in speed between the two to power a propeller

  • @tobywuellner9564
    @tobywuellner9564 2 ปีที่แล้ว +3

    Video Idea: Revisit your turbocharged pulsejet idea. On your last one, you had the turbo blow air into an open intake on the ramjet. If you completely seal off the intake and allow only the pressurized air to enter, you should b able to generate more thrust because there are no exhaust gases escaping through the intake.

  • @ChesapeakeBay89

    Like your videos a lot. I thought when you started talking about sailboats though that you were going to use that as a way to bring up the "suction" force. Since when you are sailing into the wind, close hauled, your fabric sail mimics the shape of an airplane wing allowing you to sail into the wind. This has been the focus of many competitive races now and if you look at America's Cup or Sail GP boats you will see a hard, two piece "wing" main sail to optimize this phenomenon.
    Do like your videos a lot though and hope you keep making them. Keep up the good work!

    I think you need to use the prop backwards, as a tractor, you rely too much on the fan blowing on it, it should have enough momentum with the treadmill and the wheels to gears, it should work.
