RedDiamondPanda I know you're kidding, but that's 100% NOT true, which is a huge reason why I like his videos. Many channels only use polished footage of success, which is great for an instructional video, but Cody shows the thinking process, mistakes, and how things usually work in real life. For example, picture the King if Random in his socks, showing a rocket that doesn't move the old skateboard, using duct tape until he finds a roll of electrical tape, etc. I'm not knocking his (KoR) videos, because they're really good, but Cody shows a more unedited, authentic representation of real life. Considering the skateboard didn't move on it's own, this video alone proves your premise incorrect.

Cody, I've been watching your videos for quite some time now, Thank God for people like you who take scientific subjects that normally confound people (who are not scientifically savvy), and explain, and display them in a tangible manner that can actually be understood. Big THUMBS UP, and please keep up your good work.
Back in the 1960's, Poland's Moon Mission project settled on a vinegar and baking soda rocket engine design. I understand they are still working on enlarging the fuel tanks.
2 things 1. Maybe make the container where the two reactants mix larger, so you don't have propellant being formed after it's already escaped. 2. Put a one-way valve on the inlet so you don't have back pressure on the pumps, allowing for a smaller diameter outlet
Making the reaction chamber larger wont help much just add weight and size, a smaller reaction chamber is better, the important thing is to achieve good mixing, once the reactants are mixed there is no point in prolonging their stay on the reaction chamber. The average mass flow will be always limited by the power of the pumps, adding check valves and reducing the nozzle diameter might not help and in fact lower the power by lowering the duty cycle due induced oscillations.
I guess if he oiled the bearings it would've worked. You can see that soapy water already makes things better and in the end of the experiment the skateboard looks more like it "wants" to move.
+Duck Chop How so? You get some protection from the solar wind despite not having a magnetosphere. You have a longer time to deal with a leak in your suit or blimp or room than you would on Mars or in space. You get closer to Earth gravity which is important to health, and you get decent amounts of sunlight which is good for plants and solar panels. You don't die faster there compared to Mars, well unless your a surfacist.
Benjamin Antman it brings me back to my childhood days in mother Russia throwing Moldov Cocktails into my neighbors living room and the homes of government officials.
Who can possibly dislike this video? It’s probably the most honest video out there. No clickbait, no scamming, no constant subscribe button on screen. Just science explained by an awesome dude.
It does look like it'd be fun to experiment with. I'd try 1) using a longer reaction chamber. 2) Adjusting the speed of the pumps. 3) using more concentrated components. 4) using a hopper to feed the soda in dry. 5) probably way beyond a science fair project, but a pulse system that only releases the pressure when it's strong enough to move the board. Of course, I've never built a rocket in my life, & these are mearly what I'd want to try. :)
Cody found your channel a couple of months ago and love it. What is nice is you have something for everyone of all ages. With this project if you were to point the jet more towards the ground or place a wall behind so then it has something to push off of. This did bring back memories of building a paper mache volcano in grade school and using dye coloring with the vinegar and baking soda mixture.
Pushing off of something could work, but it ruins the whole "rocket" idea because of why it works: if you place a board or something in the exhaust stream of the rocket and bring it close enough to the motor you cause a restriction of the flow that backs up into the nozzle. This back-up raises the pressure in the nozzle, which increases thrust, BUT as soon as the rocket moves at all you have to chase it with the board while continuing to push the board forward against the exhaust pressure. You could just as easily turn off the rocket motor, push the board all the way up to touching the nozzle, and just push the rocket forward with the board. Having the motor running provides no extra benefit.
If it's rp1 and lox rp1 is an hydrocarbon rp1 is just purified kerosene and if it's hydrolox then it's just two atoms I dont know if those are chemicals but if you're talking about hypergolics those are defenitly chemicals like hydrazine and nitrogen tetroxide
It's just easier to set up that way because of the kick-tail, If he wanted to make it go forwards he would have had to elevate the reaction chamber to above the kick-tail in order for it to be level.
@@H3wastooshort its a meme. You answer with yes to any yes/no or versus question. For example: Game reviewer: hey is this a bug or a feature? Bethesda: Yes....
Wouldn't putting them in parallel increase the pressure more than if they're in series? Having trouble getting my head around it. If the pumps are of equal power, then only the first one would have any effect, right?
Adamast But twice as fast is what we want. Momentum is mass * velocity, so those are the only things that we can change. We could put something in the liquid to make it more *mass*ive, or increase the speed at which it's ejected. (The latter is what Cody did by adding a nozzle)
Working backward. We want the ejected fluids to be going fast (Higher Specific impulse). Bernoullis Principle says that there has to be a pressure drop between the slow moving fluid and the fast moving fluid. (Think of it in terms of potential energy being turned into kinetic energy) So the fluid inside the chamber is at a higher pressure than the outside. The pumps need to overcome that pressure difference to maintain fuel flow. Each pump is producing a pressure difference between it's inlet and outlet. If the pressure inside the chamber exceeds the pressure difference the pump can produce, the flow will be backwards through the pump, and the engine will go through a burn/refill cycle instead of continuous operation. Putting pumps in series adds the pressure differences. Thus they can pump fuel into a higher pressure chamber. Thus the nozzle can be smaller and the exhaust velocity higher. Higher Isp => more efficient engine. If you also keep the RATE of flow from dropping too much, you also get higher instantaneous thrust.
Jayyblamesthegame Incorrect. Adding pumps increases head which increases the potential for pressure but does not automatically provide pressure by itself. So long as the same amount of water is moving through the same amount of pipe at the same height, the pressure will be the same., no matter how many pumps are running. Putting the pumps in parallel will pump more water which will increase pressure in the same sized pipe. Reducing the pipe size for the same amount of pumped water will increase pressure. Or, increasing the height that the water is pumped to will increase pressure as gravity will increase the pressure with the height of the water column on the falling side. The first works adding two pumps in parallel. The latter two will work for one pump up to its head limit. Only then will adding a pump in series actually increase pressure.
The name for the effect caused by the nozzle and the reason it improves the flow and thrust is called the Venturi Effect. Would love to see some scientific explanation and demonstrations on the topic from you Cody! Airflow and liquid dynamics are always fun to learn about.
im glad someone else noticed all that salt water he was spraying out was draining out into the lawn, for a smart kid he can be pretty clueless apparently rofl.
Apparently you idiots are all unaware of the existence of a thing called road and sidewalk salt that is applied to these surfaces at hundreds of times the quantity seen here every winter with little effect on grass. See there's this other thing called rain... dumbasses
My science fair project was an tin lifter. A triangular lifter made out of tin foil, toothpicks and very fine copper wire that was hooked up to high voltage causing an electromagnetic lift.
Also remember that as the fuel is spent the rocket's mass decreases. Why not cut the mass in half by putting solid baking soda in the reaction chamber and pump in an acid?
"Compared to the many other things i do on this channel, this is rather tame" Thinks of the times you dipped your bare arm in mercury, played with a geiger counter in front of radioactive material and took a sip of cyanide.
Bradley Maynard He sets off lots of explosives. In his mine, in vacuum chambers, in his shed, outside. Some with lots of protection, others with very little. He's even made nitroglycerin. Yeah, there's lots of explosions on his channel.
This is certainly better than what I did as a kid. Dropping clumps of baking soda into the bottle as quickly as I could. But it occurs to me that instead of pumps and open top bottles, use containers that can hold compressed air with a tube going to the bottom of the liquid so when valves are opened the liquid is forced much faster into the 'combustion' chamber. It would also reduce weight and the compressed air would even add to the thrust.
If I was a millionaire,I would sponsor your channel.I love your content and how down to earth you are. Great video Cody,you should do more of these simple "how to" videos,very educational.Keep it up mate 👍🏻.
well once in a while this is kinda nice isn´t it? it´s still interesting not dangerous at all. why not? it doesn´t need to always be dangerous to be interesting and he did explain what´s going on in the big guys
Man, I can't tell you enough how much I enjoy your videos. I'm not very smart, but this stuff is still interesting and fun to watch. Thanks for sharing!
Well it look like you did not think at all...you are saying he's basically stupid for asking if what very well could be still acidic will kill the grass. Ironic.....
There is a lot of research on "soda and mentos" nozzles For an engineering class that was our only assignment one semester. It was to design a rocket car using diet coke and mentos. My team and I went a different route. Instead of just relying on thrust I thought it would be a good idea to make it like a water wheel so you get get a little extra energy out of the thrust. Our car was not the fastest but we got the longest distance. We got an A on our assignment which was pretty sweet. And we got a note from the instructor who said he had never seen anyone try that idea before and thought it was genius. This little note stroked my ego a little bit.
He definitely didn't "forget" to put the nozzle on before the first test. He was worried that the nozzle would cause thrust enough from the pump power alone. I think it's really awesome that he did that, though, to give it a stronger effect on kids.
bovinespongiformflu Yea, I really doubt that they are in any way additive. Each pump moves a certain capacity of water for the given motor input. Increasing pressure would require pushing into a narrower channel or moving more mass. The latter is not possible because the mass going though both pumps must be the same. I concede that the second pump might have an easier time as the water has been pre-accellerated and thus pull the first one along slightly, but I would expect that effect to be minimal.
Evan Van Slooten Google says that pumps in series increases HEAD, not pressure. It also confirms my assertion about flow rate. Head, without decreasing the size of the hose from one pump to the next will result in equal pressure. If he wanted increased pressure he could have placed the pumps in parallel to push more water through the same sized pipe, he could have reduce the size of the intake pipe, or he could have raised the height path of the pipes. These would work for a single pump up to its head limit. THEN if the head was insufficient to increase pressure in the line, he could have added another. As it is, the second pump is superfluous.
The head pressure you are referring too is the maximum possible pressure that the pump is able to exert. However, in order for a system to reach that pressure, the system must be able to push back on the pump with as much pressure as the pump capable of pushing. If not, the system simply gives way and releases the pressure before it can ever reach the pumps limit. I have extrapolated about this in other posts but the short answer is this: if a single pump is able to pump, then there is no pressure or volume advantage to using the second. It is superfluous. If the back pressure exceeds what the first pump is able to produce, only then will the second pump actually increase pressure to the system by doubling the maximum POSSIBLE pressure. Still, it does not automatically indicate that the pressure in the system will be doubled. The actual working pressure will still only equal what the back pressure can exert as a load on the pump. The pump sets the maximum pressure and the load determines the actual working pressure.
Fun project as always Cody! I think if you would make all containers sealed and provide a small line back to the tanks for them to also pressurize, the pumps would be able to put liquid trough with a smaller nozzle resulting in more thrust.
Ehm, combustion chamber? Acid-base-reaction chamber? Nevermind, isn't using pumps, plumbing pipes and so on a bit overkill for such an inefficient rocket motor?
Seemed like a spontaneous idea and video. Nothing wrong with that. Plenty of Cody's videos are like this. I don't like the fact that consumers of youtube videos are now acting as though they're owed higher quality stuff. At the end of the day, these videos are just Cody sharing what he's doing with you and if you don't like it, you didn't have to watch it. If the video let your expectations down, your expectations are too high.

Alright then, i stand corrected. Also, a good tip if you want someone to read your reply is to not start with *facepalm*.
Apparently you idiots are all unaware of the existence of a thing called road and sidewalk salt that is applied to these surfaces at hundreds of times the quantity seen here every winter with little effect on grass. See there's this other thing called rain... dumbasses
i want more of these videos! NaOH and HCl fueled one please.
AceandDuce or at least continue his nitric acid/diesel rocket
talha yaprak NaOH and HCl wouldn't produce any thrust
Toby Charles why not?
talha yaprak naoh and hcl dont produce any gas
jasper samson yeah i meant sodium carbonate and had a brain fart
Great project, finally, one for which I have all necessary components
Cody's odd socks and shoes, what a joker, gotta love him
My science fair project was an tin lifter. A triangular lifter made out of tin foil, toothpicks and very fine copper wire that was hooked up to high voltage causing an electromagnetic lift.
You could smell the ozone after it's lift
Your next project could be how to edit a UA-cam comment.
Technically its ionic
So far I’ve never had a science fair EVER.
Top Cat nailed it 👌👌👌😂😂😂
Also remember that as the fuel is spent the rocket's mass decreases.
Why not cut the mass in half by putting solid baking soda in the reaction chamber and pump in an acid?
Hybrid rocket engine!
"Compared to the many other things i do on this channel, this is rather tame"
Thinks of the times you dipped your bare arm in mercury, played with a geiger counter in front of radioactive material and took a sip of cyanide.
Don't forget the explosions!
Which ones?
Bradley Maynard He sets off lots of explosives. In his mine, in vacuum chambers, in his shed, outside. Some with lots of protection, others with very little. He's even made nitroglycerin. Yeah, there's lots of explosions on his channel.
This is certainly better than what I did as a kid. Dropping clumps of baking soda into the bottle as quickly as I could. But it occurs to me that instead of pumps and open top bottles, use containers that can hold compressed air with a tube going to the bottom of the liquid so when valves are opened the liquid is forced much faster into the 'combustion' chamber. It would also reduce weight and the compressed air would even add to the thrust.
If I was a millionaire,I would sponsor your channel.I love your content and how down to earth you are.
Great video Cody,you should do more of these simple "how to" videos,very educational.Keep it up mate 👍🏻.
"Watch through A few of the adds on my channel."
xdd
Travis or get UA-cam Red and don't...
i use a thing called ad block cause im a scum
xd
ad*
Is this Family friendly Cody?
Probably to appease the demonetization gods
No
well once in a while this is kinda nice isn´t it? it´s still interesting not dangerous at all. why not? it doesn´t need to always be dangerous to be interesting and he did explain what´s going on in the big guys
what are the values on that capacitor?
Man, I can't tell you enough how much I enjoy your videos. I'm not very smart, but this stuff is still interesting and fun to watch. Thanks for sharing!
Cody you should make a video on what other common household chemicals can be used to make rockets. Give kids something new to make for science fairs.
Will your grass survive the soap/vinegar/muriatic acid combination?
Well it look like you did not think at all...you are saying he's basically stupid for asking if what very well could be still acidic will kill the grass. Ironic.....
What came out are basically salty water.
Try putting in bearings like red bearings and it will go exponentially faster
Do more videos on your new telescope. I want to see a good video of somebody just stargazing
Cody you are the best. Love your real, honest videos. Wishing you the best sir!
There is a lot of research on "soda and mentos" nozzles For an engineering class that was our only assignment one semester. It was to design a rocket car using diet coke and mentos. My team and I went a different route. Instead of just relying on thrust I thought it would be a good idea to make it like a water wheel so you get get a little extra energy out of the thrust. Our car was not the fastest but we got the longest distance. We got an A on our assignment which was pretty sweet. And we got a note from the instructor who said he had never seen anyone try that idea before and thought it was genius. This little note stroked my ego a little bit.
Make hybrid rocket that uses gasoline and liquid oxygen
that wouldn't be a hybrid. a hybrid uses a solid fuel such as rubber
freeze the gasoline and run O2 over it?
Real Rocket Scientists use Refined Kerosene
Freddie Scowen I think it could be a gas-liquid, gas-solid, and maybe solid-liquid
How do you get gasoline to burn below its freezing point (-43c) ? you cant.
How long do your videos usually take to make?
Wolfyplaysmc4 10 minutes
tyten olaug Seems like an accurate number, thanks!
use kerosene and LOx
Cheap, safe, and non-toxic hypergolic fuels... I like it!
He definitely didn't "forget" to put the nozzle on before the first test. He was worried that the nozzle would cause thrust enough from the pump power alone. I think it's really awesome that he did that, though, to give it a stronger effect on kids.
impeller pumps do not work that way...
bovinespongiformflu Yea, I really doubt that they are in any way additive. Each pump moves a certain capacity of water for the given motor input. Increasing pressure would require pushing into a narrower channel or moving more mass. The latter is not possible because the mass going though both pumps must be the same.
I concede that the second pump might have an easier time as the water has been pre-accellerated and thus pull the first one along slightly, but I would expect that effect to be minimal.
Yeah, they do. Google centrifugal pumps in series.
Evan Van Slooten Google says that pumps in series increases HEAD, not pressure. It also confirms my assertion about flow rate. Head, without decreasing the size of the hose from one pump to the next will result in equal pressure. If he wanted increased pressure he could have placed the pumps in parallel to push more water through the same sized pipe, he could have reduce the size of the intake pipe, or he could have raised the height path of the pipes. These would work for a single pump up to its head limit. THEN if the head was insufficient to increase pressure in the line, he could have added another. As it is, the second pump is superfluous.
Pressure = .434Head * Specific Gravity for a given liquid. As head increases so does pressure.
The head pressure you are referring too is the maximum possible pressure that the pump is able to exert. However, in order for a system to reach that pressure, the system must be able to push back on the pump with as much pressure as the pump capable of pushing. If not, the system simply gives way and releases the pressure before it can ever reach the pumps limit.
I have extrapolated about this in other posts but the short answer is this: if a single pump is able to pump, then there is no pressure or volume advantage to using the second. It is superfluous. If the back pressure exceeds what the first pump is able to produce, only then will the second pump actually increase pressure to the system by doubling the maximum POSSIBLE pressure.
Still, it does not automatically indicate that the pressure in the system will be doubled. The actual working pressure will still only equal what the back pressure can exert as a load on the pump. The pump sets the maximum pressure and the load determines the actual working pressure.
Make a liquid fueled vacuum cleaner.
Cutting things are rather dangerous says the legend who ate cynide
Fun project as always Cody!
I think if you would make all containers sealed and provide a small line back to the tanks for them to also pressurize,
the pumps would be able to put liquid trough with a smaller nozzle resulting in more thrust.
Cody, the epitome of sartorial elegance...😃
Unfortunately we are not allowed to use vinegar in SF projects. :-(
God :-O Why? :(
Calcium Chloride and baking soda also produce gas in a reaction. Use those.
Use hi test peroxide instead, that'll show them
God :-O use fluroantomonic acid, should give a nice result
Ehm, combustion chamber? Acid-base-reaction chamber?
Nevermind, isn't using pumps, plumbing pipes and so on a bit overkill for such an inefficient rocket motor?
Seemed like a spontaneous idea and video. Nothing wrong with that. Plenty of Cody's videos are like this. I don't like the fact that consumers of youtube videos are now acting as though they're owed higher quality stuff.
At the end of the day, these videos are just Cody sharing what he's doing with you and if you don't like it, you didn't have to watch it. If the video let your expectations down, your expectations are too high.
Fuel it with liquid Butan and warm Water 😅👌🏽
Cody would be absolutely amazing to listen to on a podcast!!
Very clever, Cody! Your videos are always fascinating. Thank you!
Pretty lame for you Cody. You could have done much better.
The wheels werent oiled
You have to do better than this. This is like a joke.
he should put more reactive acids into it
