Now 3d print the rest of the Mazda
Also, my apocalypse skill is kidnapping Integza so that he can do everything for me
hahahaha 3d printed compressed air powered mazda
Damn stole my video idea. Enjoy your 3d printer
I want a 3D printed 787b
You already have a 3d printer don't you.
ah yes Integza is now your personnel creator! jk :P
'The main problem I was running into a lot, was just sealing this rotor' - every rotary engine owner ever
Apex seal goes BRAAAP BRAAAP BRAPP BOOM
when norton created their version of the wankel rotary, they listed the seals as a service item and had a sort of two stroke oil injection.
this was a very good engine, as soon as the seals started to wear. funnily enough, the new seals performed poorly until they became 'worn'.
Don't forget to put some 2 stroke oil in the gas 😂😂
Dump some pencil lead into the gas tank.
The Apex of the issue lol
I’ve been a car enthusiast for a while, and it made me really happy to see you use graphite on the apexes. In most of not all rotary engines the apex seals are actually graphite.
ahh, the infamous apex seals. I have been trying to get into the rotary car scene but I have to save up to get that car.
Save up plus 3000 bucks ,apex seals are fun 😂
@@sbeve9820 they make newer apex seals which last a lot longer, different material
@@sbeve9820 they should be made from tungsten carbide, would last much longer, but the price would be well higher as well.
Harder materials left "chatter marks" in the interior wall. Mazda engineers called them "the devils fingernail marks" - I have to imagine tungsten carbide would fall into that category.
The reason why it's working better with the inlet angle changed is because you're effectively running it as a turbine. You should try just switching to an efficient turbine.
This is exactly what I was thinking the entire video.
@@Aybman if using the co2 again you may try your original small bore adapter as it seemed alot of the energy could not get transferred so was wasted
BANANAAA! Awesome video Integza and thanks for the shoutout. Looking forward to see what you do with it next
Hi!
Integza: I hate tomatoes
UA-cam: we know, here’s an add for Hienz Ketchup.
Not to worry, ketchup is made from 100% brutally murdered tomatoes. They are skinned alive and then boiled, can you imagine that?
i like drinking dead tomato bodies mixed with sweet things and other ketchup ingredients
lol
Sus
Hmm... a pneumatic wankel blender
Video Idea: You should design, print, and make a fully 3D Printed drone! The challenge will be to make it as light as possible but at the same time sturdy and stable in the air.
Tomatoes are disgusting!
this would be cool
@@mikevandebunt811 Yes, you are right but the challenge will be making it yourself; different from these models!
@@alessnespoli but Integza usually does things that HAVEN'T been done with 3D printing before.
@@mikevandebunt811 I agree but I think it would be very cool plus if you think about it, also the Wankel Rotary Engine 3D Printed isn't something new as he said at 1:13
Hi Alessandro! Congratulations you won a 3D Printer! Send me your info (Name, Address, Zip Code, Phone Number) to integza@gmail.com.
13:58 I love that Snape is right next to Tesla in the background.
"The air gets exhausted, because it did soo much work " you've gained a subscriber
That was a very natural add placement for solideorks. I loved that.
I thought that was the sponsor until skill shared came up later
Video Idea: 3D print other types of engines with similar displacement and test their horsepower for a certain PSI
Edit: or just banana power
Congrats
Ur winning dude
Yes! Although, not horsepower.... bananapower!
@@BRUXXUS Hahaha yeah good idea
@@BRUXXUS and rate every engine in rotten tomatoes score later
Integza, you are one of my favorite makers. I enjoy your failures as much as your successes. You have a fantastic attitude towards failure. You cannot succeed without failure and we fail to learn
so it is 1 banana power engine
Not to be *that guy* but since 1hp is equivalent to lifting weight in m/s if your "weight" was one banana I'd imagine the engine powered with co2 could output several BananaPower™️
And we all know bananas are radioactive, so it's basically a nuclear engine!
I’d say this engine is at least a 10BananaPower (10BP) engine
How much Llamathrust is that? 🦙
This is not an engine. The power is coming from the pressurized air!
I think the video idea is obvious you should collab with Tom Stanton and make a mini helicopter using this design and your brains
Plane, Plane, Plane, Plane,
Yes
Why should they put their brains in a mini helicopter? It's not very practical, a person's brain should stay inside their skull
I personally don't want to see Integza's brains.
They might be made of banana....
There’s lots of ads for Skill Share out there, but “your survival in the apocalypse is contingent on how useful you are” is the best one.
I really enjoy your channel. What a cool thing you've put together. There are a lot of maker channels, but not many are as entertaining as yours! Thank you for everything you're doing!
I actually really like the graphite as the apex seals. That’s a nice touch.
Just like the real deal
I'd make it spring-loaded on top
@@The_Wack I thought the real deal used spring loaded steel pins?
@@bagochips834 they used graphite as an apex seals on the older model like rx1 & rx3 I think while the rx7 are usually made of metal, and are pushed against the housing by springs.
Will it not wear down fast?
this is the only dude that can get me to watch an ad and enjoy it
I agree 😂
I also agree!
@U w U it’s just a personal thing from everyone ig lol
The air gets exhausted, because it did so much work. I love it!
The CO2 gas expanding is an Endothermic reaction (It absorbes heat) which is why it gets cold enough to freeze solid.
Having the CO2 container submerged in warm water to provide some of the heat will help it maintain a little higher pressure for longer.
“If things go according to plan”
The integza equivalent of “what could possibly go wrong” 😂
@Macho Sancho he is a good UA-camr
You should use the motor to make a tomato-grinder
I came here to suggest a rotary powered blender with various tomato assassins falling to their death
Nah I'd try with something that require more rpm capability than torque, that's the peculiarity of the wankel
FUxckyeah
or just like the viral 2018 trend of shredders
I can't imagine what would happen if you and Tom Stanton would collab: it'd be a mix of english neatness with mediterranean chaotic talent: I'm hoping it'll happen some time in the next future!
Thanks!
Make the “integza engine” come up with your own idea for an engine whether it’s combustion or whatever and make a miniature version of it
i have a feeling ur gonna get a 3D printer
Bruh lemme get one too
"haha just invent a new type of engine" wtf is wrong with you? Are you brain damaged?
@@beastlymace2214 someone else has already won but I will be commenting this on the next video since I was kinda late to this video so look out for the comment when the video comes out😉😂
@@__-bz7wh hello person, I don’t know if you’re a troll but its a video idea that isn’t too complicated when you dumb it down. The use of an engine is to turn one form of energy into rotational energy. for instance, a combustion motor turns the energy from an explosion into rotational energy. All you have to do is look for some form of energy that hasn’t yet been turned into a motor and find a way to convert it. Or take some already existing motors and find another way to harness the energy like the rotary engine did with the combustion engine. No need to get upset.😂
The BALLS OF STEEL having a propeller spin that close to your hand
I think directing exhaust of decompressing CO2 onto your hand is more of a problem here.
I was actually thinking that 1 half of the propeller will eject once the centripetal force was sufficient. good thing it didnt. dont want them to get hurt
@8A Benaiah Dandel you
And A
I wasn't expecting much from this as I'd understood that Wankel engines were very sensitive to tolerances at the seal but using the graphite pieces was just inspired and the engine really worked very well. Impressive.
There's a story, probably apocryphal, that Wankel intended to use the recently "discovered" ceramic silicon nitride seals because it's highly heat resistant and can be made extremely hard and smooth, a perfect bearing material for engines (where it's used a lot today). However, at the time it was only made in the USA and was considered a "strategic material" because of its military applications so no US maker was allowed to sell it to foreign companies. Hence Wankel had to use inferior materials that meant the seals had to be replaced too often to make the engine commercially viable despite several carmakers giving it a try.
Since Integza's engine runs cold, graphite was indeed an inspired choice.
When you mention possible applications, my mind flew away and first thing that came up is the Kola Superdeep Borehole. I remember the Uralmash-15000 series rig had several limitations after 12 km. As the borehole deepened, challenges arose with torque, drill string weight, and temperature. Maybe your Wankel engine driven by compressed CO2 from the surface would solve the high temperature issues with lubricants deep underground while refrigerating the whole rig.
I'd love to see this develop with a two rotor design like in the Mazda 13b
Or a 4 rotor
@@nickrusso5058 like a 787b?
Dorito boys
Everyone else: Don’t Try This At Home
Integza: You can’t try this at home? I will give you a 3D printer.
"Don't try this at home, unless it's in the attic"
haha that's a genius way of taking this xDxD just for the honour of your hands: just dont build burning/exploding things xD integza's sacrifice is enought xDxD let's keep watching this tomato do funny stuff like that in his attic :P xDxD
@@JannisDesigns he moved house and no longer has to use the attic
as a car guy, i love you for making this, us JDM boys love rotaries
True
*Y E S*
Lol I love rotaries and suggested the idea on an earlier vid but ig he never saw it cause I didn’t get a shoutout😢
DORITOS FOREVER!
Not when the Apex seal broke😂
You should create a puzzle box that solves itself when you blow air into a tube or use an air compressor. It could be like a rubiks cube idea in simple terms that when air is added it spins back to a solution or certain pattern. I think this is an awesome idea and would love to see it come to life in the future on your channel!
Well done!!
Je m'attendais pas à vous voir ici 😂
“After that the air gets exhausted, bc it did so much work”
Best joke ever
You should send a few of these to Tom Stanton and let him make a compressed air quadcopter with his bottle setup. Challenge him to lift a banana.
Tomato
I agree it would be great to couple this with a feeder mechanism lightweight enough to fit into a copter or plane.
Yeah, or just send the files...
Video idea: Create an RC car/plane/boat and power it with PET bottles, which for the boat could double up as the floats.
Day five of telling integza to 3d print a resin shell for the ceramic vortex cooled engine to prevent leaking
I've told him an sent him links to 2hr fire proof drywall mud an it doesn't harden like other mud it's kinda rubbery.
I like how it's easy to forget that Integza is an extremely talented and smart engineer.
is he?
@@remiclaeys9136 are you?

@@remiclaeys9136 good for you
I love how Nikola Tesla is right next to Severus Snape on his wall. They both have made such important accomplishments for humanity.
You got my subscription with the "shut up" line and the banana bit lol
I'd recommend to connect it to a flywheel, since the movement wasn't that smooth, and after that, you could try to hook it up to a little generator
use high-pressure air instead because it will not solidify when exiting the tank
And the generator is hooked up to a compressor, which will then power another Wankel engine
@@der.Schtefan Or could it power itself ?!?!? (I think it is not possible?)
Using graphite "pencil rods" is very brilliant !!!
The only issue is that graphite is porous
This is the future of how we should educate each other and get the best potential out of the internet
Bro you look beautiful with you're impressive knowledge about physics. And you should create the new space agency like space X
Idea: you should make an air driven car using this engine and compete with Tom Stanton !
Yes a rc car with this engine would sound great.
It has to drive for more than 20 sec without a compressor
you can use a series of Wankel engines where the size of the combustion compartment gets smaller into each new engine part so it can compensate for the expansion of the co2 cartridge, but taking full advance of the pressure.
When I was a kid, Air Hogz had an airplane that ran off of compressed air. You would pump it up using a bike pump, spin the propeller to start it and then throw in and it would fly until it exhausted the compressed air. It sounds very similar to this project. You should totally make your own, maybe even make it run on the co2.
Big throwback......of watching the ads because parents never bought it
@@dimitri2132 I never actually got one either. 😥
If you’re on the highway, you have a constant pressure. If you use a funnel you could possible increase this pressure. It won’t push the motor much because of the law of thermodynamics which means it will always go slower than the car’s engine if under the same load. This could, however, recycle some of the energy not being used currently and especially at high speeds. It’s more environmentally friendly, but I highly doubt that it would be cost effective.
For your next video, make a dual turbo fan rocket 3d printed. It creates lots of pressure and uses liquid fuel, so those would be your 2 main issues
YEEEEEEEES! I've been waiting for solidworks to become affordable or me to be rich for years
I know the only times I’ve been able to use it were at school or at work up until now
@@t_y8274 who would do such a thing :O
@@ehrich98 Rich &powerfull people? Just don't do crime if your poor as the rich competition makes go to prison!
imagine the power you could get with two triangular rotors that counter-rotate to cancel out vibrations...
Make a helicopter XD
Great work! Rotary engines are some of my favorites! I’m intrigued by the functionality of such a small, but complex engine. If I had to suggest anything, maybe see if it could move a bicycle using regulated co2 canisters which release periodically to conserve pressure. It would probably have to be put on a horsepower ratio for more torque, but that part should be straightforward. Keep it up!
Yea he said easy engine... Not so much tho
Video Idea: "Make multiple Triangular engines and stick them together (with some kind of camshaft) to power a vehicle, and they put that vehicle through a series of tests (Offroad, Acceleration, Maenuverability etc. etc.)"
He should use it on his boat
When the project works the first time:
Something's wrong, I can feel it.
Hi Integza. Awesome video! You just need an additional expansion chamber for the CO2 to go into before passing to the engine. Alternatively, hold the cartridge upright so that the gaseous CO2 doesn't propell the liquid. Cheers!
I was looking for such a film about a rotary air engine. Thanks for this movie.
remote-controlled rotary-powered drag racer.
This is amazing btw
Yes! That would be so cool
You should get a cnc machine like a shapeoko. Being able to work with aluminum and large pieces of plastic would be really cool. They are also cheap enough to be easy accessible.
And get a lathe and a mill
This is a hard one: Print a gearbox and lift your car with the rotary engine
Lets get this comment to the top
he'd need to use metal parts which he cant manufacture or very heavy duty plastic parts that are expensive. either way, it probably wouldn't make for a profitable video, so i don't think he'll do it. also that engine has barely any torque, so the inertia and friction of a gearbox with that large of a ratio would probably instantly stall it. not saying it can't be done, just saying he'll probably fail/not try.
I have no idea why UA-cam sent me your way but I'm glad they are. You Sir are an absolute legend!!!
Now I wanna see a Three stage rotary engine, that's probably like a 100xtimes banana strength.
Have you seen rob dahm's 3 and 4 rotor? Absolutely nuts lol
Edit: spelling
In the "loop" part(where the air goes into a separate chamber) of the airway try to angle the inlet and outlet of those as well, thus improving the contact and making it more efficient also try to maximise diameter of inlet and outlet. Also if you want to use the CO2 cylinder try to make a throttling valve for it to expand like how they use in refrigerators. I'm looking forward to an improved engine soon
build a compressed air cannon that will launch tomato’s to their doom
Tomatoes
Yeah are you trying to steal my video idea? Lol
You just re-invented the potato cannon, because you can fit tomatoes in it
Yes
impressed by the skill you have when making engines
Sounds like it's time to collab with Tom Stanton to turn your engine into a viable RC plane.
Make a 5-speed transmission for the engine controlled by a servo. You could make a series out of something like building a small car with every component per video.
Video idea: contact your friend Tom STANTON to use your engine in one of his projects, or if not possible just make a tomato shredder ⚙️🍅⚙️ 😁
This is the only channel where I actually look forward for the sponsor section.
I could totally see you making an entirely new form of engine. Cant wait for the development of the integza engine.
Not an internal combustion engine.

Yas plz
the wankle IS reliable....if you keep up with your apex seals and other maintence....and don't run it too hard....and don't let it overheat.....
@@nosch43 so basically you can’t do anything without having to rebuild it
I may not be a physicist or engineer of some kind, but if you want to utilize the CO2 fuel source even after it comes out the exhaust maybe send it back through to the input. If this makes a problem because it keeps constant pressure then maybe cause the CO2 to go through a chemical reaction after the exhaust and before going back into the input. Turn the CO2 into C and O2, store the C for now, send the O2 through the input, when it comes out again recombine it with the C, and then start the process all over again.
video idea: Air-powered-engine competition between you and Tom Stanton.
I feel like the next logical step is to build a plane with that engine and enter a competition against Tom Stanton...

I'd like to suggest a sterling engine. Preferably just sun heat powered.
A sterling wankel would be awesome!!
Why use sun heat when you can use air? I mean if the sun is blocked by some kind of man made shit that wouldnt be of much help.

no wait. tomato trebuchet to send the disgusting tomatoes flying through the air and smashing into the ground!
Slow down, I can only get so turned on~
Modify this engine so that it runs on fuel!!
That defeats the purpose if it becomes a combustion engine it’s stupid
The mazda rx7 uses that engine dumbo
I don't know if you're being serious or not
@@akio_9234 nothing like a 3-4 rotor 13b 🤣
When he added the extra air flow, the design was compromised. Also the timing is critical to operate smoothly. That is difficult to achieve on a small plastic model.
Idea: 3d print a 3d printer capable of automatically printing more 3d printers, we'll defy the assumptions and kick off the self-replicating robot apocalypse and win the Civilization Dead Pool
That's basically the design philosophy behind the RepRap - it's a printer capable of printing (most of) a copy of itself and can make its own replacement parts. Obviously there are limitations to how much of a 3D printer a 3D printer can 3D print, e.g., you're not going to be printing things like stepper motors, the extruder/hotend, and electronics.
I wonder if u could make some sort of RC car with this? Maybe one powered by a controllable compressed air kind of like the PC duster cans but with a controllable valve on an rc car, or on a large scale you could even use a paintball gun air tank for some huge over powered rc truck
Alright! The rocket/jet type projects were fun but this is even cooler IMO, I like mechanical things. It's also been fun watching how you've made it a point to pick up some new skills like working w/ metal, welding, etc.. Keep it up!
There's an inverted design: oval inside, triangle housing that mostly solves the apex sealing issue by bypassing it. Maybe give that a try as well?
I just Googled that. There's a company called LiquidPiston who has funding from DARPA. It looks very interesting.
@@JonS sick aye, warped perception made a slowmo vid with a clear cover on the engine.
I would love to see you collab with Tom Stanton to see who can make a compressed air plane fly furthest!!
Edit: a word
I think you should improve the engine by recycling the air from the exhaust. Maybe make a car powered by air. Start small and go bigger. I know that there is a company that makes air powered cars but their engines are different. It would be really cool if we could all print out our own vehicle
Idea: Make a compressed air powered plane with the Wankel engine and check how much time it could stay flying.
Jet engine is better
Make a rocket engine in the shape of Tom Stanton's head.
attach that rocket to a long board
Yes! Just to mess with that smarty-pants red-headed soulless snob.
the way you tested your engine with a propeller is the reason I have two separate scars on my hand, one even had stitches! Be careful with props man.
I was think that is so dangerous
You are a brave man trusting the 2 piece propeller with latex gloves
Another nice video! Using graphite was really smart! It would be cool to see it in an RC car
You should try mixing gunpowder into the pressurized gas that enters the engine and ignite it
Integza, you should try to make tomatoes useful (in a disgusting way) and make a biofuel, then use that in a liquid rocket motor (or something else, it’s up to you)
yes
Lmao yes
An internal combustion engine has 4 phases; intake, compression, ignition, exhaust. An air pressure engine uses just two; expansion, exhaust.
If I'm not mistaken you could set up an airpowered rotary to have double the "powerstrokes" of a combustion rotary, aka 6 per revolution
I love how Integza discovered right off the bat how blown apex seals are the bane of RX-7 owners xDDDDDDDDDD
Funfact: have never blown an Apex seal on a wankel. Not a 13b though.
Even worse for us RX8 boys 😅
I would like to see a very simple submarine, or at least a vessel with a ballast tank and maybe a propeller/impeller. I think that would be awesome, thank you Integza!
On the "Bananaaaaa" scene, I had so many Minion's flashbacks. :D
"i should probably 3d print a propeller"
bro is using air to create air
Do a race where all your builded engines race against the others an look who`s your strongest/fastest engine

Power a car with it.
The DeLorean DMC-12 (one of my favorite models of car) was originally meant to be powered by a Wankel engine, but there was only one company that made Wankel engines at the time, and they had stopped making Wankel engines.
I myself plan to get a DeLorean (they’re going to start selling new ones soon) and put a Wankel engine in it.
"How much power does this engine have?" Integza: " 1 banana, maybe 2 if you angle the air intake."
Bananas produce antimatter (no joke, look it up) so the engine is stronger than antimatter. :)
