  • what is the

    

  • cool

  • this is ufo technolgy! blasfemma`s ...the lord is watching you

  • @weldon0m Jesus was killed by UFOs. hahahha

  • que material posee el tubo de ensayo, esquematicamente como funciona

  • Lol guys t is thermo-acoustic engine... it isnt powered by sound but by the heat provided by the meths burner...

    it heatsh the air inside wich forces the cylinder to move and the flywheel keeps it all moving

    It does basically have a hot end(by the burner) and a cold end making the air's volume growing on hot part and decrease on cold part

  • this is true but the reason why sound is involved is because the thing that actually moves the piston is the sound wave, air is the medium for the energy transfer and the heat is converted to sound energy so it can be pulsed and sent in a wave. just higher and lower pressure would need the air to escape every single time or the heat source to move, with a wave there is a peak and then a valley giving it the reciprocating motion

  • It is clear that you have no idea about stirling engines...

    Sound has nothing to do with this...

    The pressure changes without the air escaping

    ...

    The hot end heats the air wich forces the clinder out, then the flywheels dynamical energy+the cold ends pressure lowering forces the clinder back then again flywheel+high pressure with heating up in the hot end...

    It is very simple if you have a clue about engineering ...

  • You are incorrect.

    From Wiki:

    Thermoacoustic hot air engines... is a technology that uses high-amplitude SOUND waves in a pressurized gas to pump heat from one place to another; or uses a heat temperature difference to induce sound, which can be converted to electricity with high efficiency, with a piezoelectric sensor.

    A clue about engineering?

  • It is really one of the most beautyfull machines of that horizontal building type.

  • Such a beautiful piece of engineering work

  • where is the air exhausted from ??? or it just stays in the cylinder??

  • stays in the cylinder

  • What is the world is all that noise I wish I could hear the engine running. It is interesting there is only 1 piston with no displacer piston. What makes it work?

  • STuff that's powered by sound weirds me out.

    And how does the piston have such a long stroke? The sounds waves cannot be that high amplitude..

  • sound waves are variations of pressure, pistons can utilize variations of presure for providing mechanical energy needed to rotate something. Clear ?

  • Could you explain more deeply what sound waves have to do with the motion of the flywheel?
