  • Making a Brass Steam Engine! The construction took me more time than building the Solenid engine, there are much more elements here. However, brass is better than I thought in processing and it is also very easy to solder.

    Who needs a milling machine and a slot cutter, when you can hold an angle grinder so steady!!
    Great work with minimal equipment.

    my son made a steam(air ) engine for a science project. getting the valve timing was tricky. a great uncle explained supplying more volume(bigger line) of steam would help. in the end to display it at the science fair it would have to be run in an explosion proof box . so a video tape was used at the fair

    • @erniew5805
      @erniew5805 5 років тому +1

      @Ethan Stam it is possible the vhs tape is somewhere but i wouldn't know where to start to look and don't have a VHS player anymore. the piston was a copper pipe cap so the cylinder may have been copper pipe also. i would guess he found the plans on line. i recall it showed to use a tin can to generate steam . i nixed that idea . had a 5 gal. pressure cooker but i think those are limited to about 15 psi which wouldn't run it. air pressure would run it but i think you had to use your finger to get it started

  • @farida7777777

    Great Technical work. Stars to you.
    All it needs is pressure, steam achieves much higher pressure due to its internal energy stored as heat.
    This heat will allow for greater kinetic energy conversion.
    You simulated it perfectly. Although steam will cause material expansion, still a good test.

      @@WideWorldofTrains I must admit it would have been a lot more challenging machining parts that require high speed lathing put it could still have been done with gearing reduction methods. There was no demand anyway as metalurgy still had to catch up to create the high carbon steels that required this process. Even as recently as the 1920s ships of the stature of the Titanic were built with relatively crude and impure steel. Real progress was made by the 1940s to create high speed engine parts for the war effort.

      @@WideWorldofTrains interesting video. The example you cite is a static balanced beam engine. They were very useful for static water pumping duties in the mining and tunneling industries. I am lucky enough to have the Manchester Mueseum of Science and Industry nearby that has working examples of this. Additionally we have the East Lancashire Railway between Bury and Rawtenstall that runs live steam every weekend of the year. I absolutely love the smell of live steam and the sulphurous smoke clouds from the chimney stacks. The hissing of the steam and the clanging of the massive wheels is pure drama. You could not fail to be overawed and hypnotised by this sight at close quarters. We had some class A4 Pacifics on the line last year!

    For those of you who are smug about operating this engine on air, In the Navy, in port, we would use compressed air to operate bilge pumps, feed pumps and eductors- it is a legitimate motive force and the main benefit of the piston driven steam engine is that it indeed can be used with both sources very effectively.
