levitation melting with induction heating

[killer2611]

you need a better cam dude. also i wanted to see it drop into the water :(

[MantaxTheDude]

Its like you could do that with your ex-girlriend's brain

[svenswart]

Who needs a girlfriend if you know science?

[bazengao]

FILMED AND EDIT WITH A FREAKN CALCULATOR!!

[9noitulover]

Whats the energy input and the heat output?

[Video85Man]

yea,...... right

[GingleGangle1]

HEY, this vid goes with "Enjoy the silence"!))

[sroomsie]

get a girlfriend... ASAP...

[MrTubeAudio]

Try that with magnesium :)

[analyzingfunny]

WAY TOO MUCH YELLING!!!!! WTF!!!!

[greenhorny11]

do you read what you write or are you writing this shit without thinking

do you know anything about physics? this is f***3 bullshit, usually I dont speak like this, but thats only the truth in this case...

go in a library and get some serious books about this, then talk again...

[wakkatidus1234]

@greenhorny11

I hope your not saying the experiment is bullshit because if you do you obviously don't know shit about electrons/electricity and magnetism.

[greenhorny11]

@wakkatidus1234 i didn't want to say this, i was maby commenting on the wrong video, or wanted to answer but posted it only so (i cant finde the original) the experiment is fantastic, i like it, but somene said thing like anti-gravitation lift and so... mayby i was wring sorry for that!

[poopipeplunger]

@TheNaViprofessorsBF LOL

[erjohnson227]

Idiot.

[TheLightningStalker]

A what rod?

[christiman2]

a forged rod that it is

[jameskguy]

very cool!! - figuratively speaking

[hazmat440]

Wow that is cool,.... kinda reminds me of the rodin coil high spin plasma state although this wasn't quite there yet

[tommy9411]

no, it's not at all like a sun. A sun is powered by nuclear fusion

[projectdelta50]

its a mini sun

[Treblaine]

Awesomsauce

[biowerks]

This is really cool. I am working on a DIY induction heater. I wish that your video was just a little longer showing the impurities in the copper burning, dropping it into the bowl, then removing it from the water showing the shape. Thanks for the upload though.

[asclepius235711]

awesome

[bertilsanja]

get better video camera and upload again

[SoulAnkh]

yeah id like to see a larger scale experiment with a better quality camera. :/

[proskillz89]

@bertilsanja buy him a new one then

[nemezback]

What is the coil made of??? is it ordinary copper piping??? please answer..

[Ambrellinduction]

The coil is 3/16" copper refrigeration tubing. Cooling water flows through it.

[nemezback]

ok.. thanks :))

[niddasa]

@Ambrellinduction what would you have to study to learn how to do this stuff and understand it?

[Deadzo]

How is this different from two opposing magnets pushing against each other?

If you had opposing magnetic fields coiled around the metal it would "levitate" too right?  Without the heat.

[Ambrellinduction]

Yes you are correct. We would be able to levitate but no heat would be produced. You would get the levitation without the melt!

[psmooth777]

@Deadzo First of all what do you mean when you say "opposing magnetic fields coiled around the metal"? I think you should reconsider that statement. And I disagree with Ambrellinduction. You would get neither the levitation or the melt. The magnetic fields in the video are alternating. If you place a copper sphere into a steady magnetic field (like the situation you suggest), it would just drop through it.

[viesturstube]

this is something!!! would this be sane to lift up a 50 ton brick using the same techniq

[LizzyAston]

i havent seen any uses for 50 tonne bricks, but yes it is possible

[Deadzo]

How would you power a machine that could magnetically lift a 50,000 pound chunk?

Monorail maybe, not sure if that's cheating though?

[LizzyAston]

If you think about it, it is easily possible. Just use a power station to generate the huge magnetic field. It is theoretically posssible to levitate a million tonne lump of metal, you would just have to turn a whole country into a power station. There are almost no limits!

[limeroundup]

lol

[Pyrotrons]

Excellent video, and cool channel!

[xrayrep]

Very cool! I've seen many videos of induction heaters melting various metals, but I've never seen one levitate the molten metal! Nice work!
