    Good day guys :)
    I know you are wondering that why i turn this Car compressor into engine is because I want to explore my knowledge into something different that i never tried before.

    I am a retired Mechanical and Electrical Research Engineer with a PhD from MIT, with 50 years professional and teaching experience, and lots of hands on practical experience in machining etc with a machine shop at home to boot! But, in 50 years of R&D I have never done anything as INNOVATIVE as this 2 stroke 3 dual-cylinder (one compression and one power) as this person has done! This man is a genius!

    I finally figured out that this engine design is called a revolving cylinder, axial piston engine, for all those wondering.. I guess technically it would be described as a revolving cam, axial piston engine. Very similar to a swashplate axial piston engine, like those used in torpedos, however instead of a swashplate rotating, the whole cam rotates which has peaks and troughs that push the pistons up and down as It rotates. They operate much better at slow rpms as the centrifugal force tends to wear down the engine too quickly when it’s operated at high rpm’s. Which is why they have limited applications and are great for torpedos. Very interesting and impressive engine nonetheless!

    I don't know where this man is from. I assume he's in India, regardless he needs to show this video to a dean at one of the major Universities, Technical College, Ministry of Education or any one of he major engineering companies in his area. Anyone with the slightest grain of intelligence would recognize the genius qualities this man possess. The possibilities of designing and building future projects appear to be limitless if given the opportunity to develop his skills. All he requires is the support of his Government, educational institution, or major engineering company. This is a golden opportunity for his country to take this man under their wing and with further technical training in university or on the job I truly believe the potential to develop great ideas are limitless.
    I pent more than 50 years teaching apprentices, mechanics, mechanical maintenance programs in both developed and developing countries. I've watched 100's of similar TH-cam videos and was impressed by many of them however this one stands out above them all deserving golden award. Young man, whoever you are you have what it takes to make you dreams come true ( just look at the at all of the positive comments you got on this video) that alone should tall you something. I would love to know you and be able to communicate with you.

    This is the dream of a lot of budding mechanics (I know it was mine as a kid, but we were limited to points ignition and metal parts). At the time, all AC compressors were still standard piston, crank, and connecting rod configuration, and the axial compressors didn't come out till later on. I'm glad you included the failure of the first acrylic reed plate, which demonstrates that these projects rarely ever go according to plan the first time around!😁 The second iteration was a much better setup, and I'm surprised it ran as long as it did before it melted the threads on the spark plugs! Well done man!😁👍👍 I really like these little projects that use the most basic of components for proof of concept.😉

Typical American wank comment about how indian workers half ass everything yet America is a joke now compared to what it used to be for manufacturing. I bet 90% of the shit you own is made off shore.

      @James Ross Y'know... despite literally gluing everything together and using acrylic, it still ran. No, it won't last, but I dont think that's the point of the project. He just wanted to convert something into an engine and then be able to see inside while it ran. You don't have to go out of your way to be an asshat.

    The center area where the swash plate resides (swashcase?) would make a perfect oil reservoir (bath the swash plate and pistons in oil, no net compression here), just needs a filler and drain drilled in. The refrigerant passages between the cylinders would make an excellent water jacket. Put a decent header on it for backpressure and don't forget an NT carby, a tiny water pump, and a rad. With these modifications (and the obvious 86ing of the acrylic pieces), the motor should run as long as it's maintained (oil changed every 20 hours or so) and produce a couple horses. One upshot is that it will not require a break-in period but may or may not still require 2-stroke oil/gas mix depending on how well the ends are oiled from the swash case oil.
    With skills like that, you could even take apart a Hoover motor and build yourself a supercharger for it!

      @rogerd4559 4 ปีที่แล้ว +9

      exactly what I was thinking, a two stroke thayt didnt sound like one but sounded powerful
      I think because it had dedicated pistons to force the mixture into the combustion chambers, where as a conventional two stroke has a compromised crank case to do that. So the fuel mixture is 100% completely injected into the power cylindealso notice no need for piston rings as the blow by increases the compressor stage pressure of the supply gasses
      Thus less friction= more efficiency

I know there would be many issues with this but it would greatly increase the torque though that in itself may be a big issue due to such a thin walled block/cyl walls. Anyway this is absolutely an amazing project you have done very very creative.

    at some point in this guys life, a teacher or something told him he couldn't turn something into an engine, and now he is on a life long quest to prove them wrong

      Or maybe, the teacher (or something) told him that he has potential to do anything, and now he is on a life long quest to never give up the teacher's encouragement and belief

    Would be great if they did some tests like RPM / power, that's a very interesting construction, it's very much not intended to work as an engine

    If you engineered this all yourself, you deserve to be working in a space rocket program. Your machining talent is very good, and the project ran amazingly well. Just subscribed to your channel.
