Mini Steam Turbine Spooling Up

[mudaphucker]

Man, that sounds like it Could power a house

[BlackZeroRS]

Hm... Good for laptop charging... :)))

[92310CAMILLE]

that's surely a rankine engine( not fully a rankine but likely to be that way) and I'm wondering where is the exhaust tube for vapor comes out...after it enters the mini turbine?

[bubb3432]

you could focus a parabolic reflector or a fresnel mirror onto the boiler then you would not need to waste natural gas.

[arnoldaszlt]

:0 HOLY....... FREAKIN AWESOME.

[dadigitechman]

Rube Goldburg machine. xD

[RandomTask3000]

PRESS 3, 4, 5, 3, 3, 4, 5, 3 for "frere jacque, frere jacque"

[pokos57]

SOUNDS LIKE 747 ENGINE RUNNING

[fanjapanischermusik]

i wait for a Mini nuclear power generating Station to do the same

[lexander5]

wow, thats fast. if you fast-forward the video in about 10-sec-steps, you hear a kinda gamut... lol

[videodude4]

where is the gas source? (for the fire)

[naturalyshocked]

OMG that awesome

[rudolphna54]

Sounds like a miniature CFM56!

[MarcoTUV]

Fucking Germans.. always inventing wonderful things...

[Si3z3]

does it output any power or is it jsut for show?

[saintveil]

@Si3z3 - It's powering the bulbs, 4 light bulbs on the front

[tamiya1]

What rpm is that thing spinning at? Awesome!

[chsxtian]

looks like the leds won't be working long like that, but it's nice :)

[jazzmanzoot]

Please tell me you can Read by these lights ! ?

[mastmar]

Very VERY cool! Wish I had one. Good job! Well done!

[seahawkers101]

What is being used as fuel?

[MarcoTUV]

@seahawkers101 could be alcohol

[plaguepuppy]

You can get a version of it from gyroscope(dot)com for 194 pounds, different turbine (Hero of Alexandria style) but same boiler.

[marlenecandido]

were did you get your materials??

[SuperJamming]

This video is brilliant wonder where did you purchased the miniature generator?and all other things, exactly what picture on my mind to save the heat loss. That what I need for my projects,do appreciated if you could direct me to the seller.

[RamonaSteam]

This model was made by Karsten Gintschel, in Germany. I bought it from an engineer, in Los Angeles, who had tweaked it up a bit. Good luck, finding one like it.

[saintveil]

@SuperJamming - There are many Stirling Engine Manufacturers on the web. Search Ebay and Amazon for starters...

[toothpik00]

STEAMPUNK!

[bluesowo]

Great ! I like it and i like everything what makes steam and everything pushed or rotated by steam. Your generator gives more light than the flame you use to make steam Good job.

[mentalabsence]

ITS A MODEL.

IDIOT.

[TravvyG]

Where can you buy these? I want one =)

[daMoleKing]

CANINSTRA, now that my friend, is a good idea!

[EthanTheExplorer]

I am on my way to the garage to make a steam turbine flashlight

no joke!

[CASINTRA]

Maybe you can save the steam, why dot´t you make a close circuit?, condensated it, and with a pump electric pump, re heated it again in the boiler.

[IdahoViewing]

Shouldn't even need a pump if you plumb it correctly.

[erikl07011982]

wow, what a sound!

[asianwong]

thats amazing! whit kind of bulbs were those? ive got a couple m ore questions, but ill ask them later

[RamonaSteam]

I believe they are 5mm, fully diffused, pure white, LEDs.

[xxriotxx56]

kool

[duncandumpertruck]

It's difficult to capture the sound of them properly isn't it?

[RamonaSteam]

Certainly, once the pitch of the turbine gets high enough, the camera cannot properly record it.
