High Voltage Capacitor Bank III: Plate Launcher

[@Rouverius]

Hopefully, I won't confuse this for my wireless charger.😁

[@ImTheReal]

Should be hilarious to see some smartphone jumping trying to charge 🤣

🤣

[@thetesseract2237]

It will wirelessly charge but only once

I have huge respect for your enthusiasm and determination. Also happy to see that your work is recognized by the sponsors

Hello LS, Interesting video and demonstration, with a good explanation of the principle behind it. One of my favorite channels. Thank you for sharing all you do. All the best, C.

[@utkarsh22smart]

At 5:41, how is that the multi-meter reads 1174 volts? PLease explain #Ludic_Science.

[@johnpauliii1218]

If the current through the inductor decreases, the magnetic field strength decreases, and the energy in the magnetic field decreases. This energy is returned to the circuit in the form of an increase in the electrical potential energy of the moving charges, causing a voltage rise across the windings. Sudden voltage spike seen across an inductive load(coil) when its supply current is suddenly reduced or interrupted.

[@ImTheReal]

@@johnpauliii1218Pretty cool! At 4:43 the voltage raizes up to 700 volts.

[@nopparuj]

This is how boost converter works, the coil has inductance.

[@unknowunknown9096]

It could broken

[@gbhxn444]

how you handle the 'voltage spike' on the negative terminal of capacitor bank after the trigger spark gap discharge the capacitorbank? do you used resistor and diode between the negative terminal of capacitor bank and spiral coil?

[@among-us-99999]

Can you build a multi-stage coilgun?

[@farabielec]

As per Lenz law this will happen if current applied to the coil is ac but not dc. The cap bank dischargs dc voltage to the coil?

[@tenlittleindians]

Interesting demonstration. What happens if you substitute a ferris material for the aluminum plate? More or less effective? If using a ferris material does this process leave a residual magnetic property in the metal? If you placed a cassette tape on top of the coil and fired it, can you play the tape through a tape player with an oscilloscope hooked up to the output and view the signal induced into the magnetic tape?

[@inventorbrothers7053]

That was a very awesome and exciting video! It makes me want to go and make it!

[@kenbuster3524]

Is this cap bank enough to produce 'flash graphene?" I am looking for a high voltage bank that will dump everything very, very quickly. The best idea ive come up with is using a arc welder, but this doesnt produce the current needed to convert anything, except high quality grafite that ive already reduced to multi layer graphene. If you might be so inclined, the graphene industry and those of us actively researching its mass production would be more than grascious for some guidence on creating such a device.

[@deltab9768]

Wait a minute you got a spark gap to work at 150V?

[@coucouj2781]

What is limiting the capacitor charging? Do you absolutly need to monitor voltage ?

[@ludicscience]

The capacitor rating. Yes, overvolting can make the caps explode

[@manla8397]

@@ludicscience How about using a series of zener diode to clamp the voltage to make it student proof.

[@user-lc8jd6sn2b]

@@manla8397 why not use a zener diode to bias pnp in series with the caps. Wouldn't what reduce the need for expensive high wattage zeners

[@Sidhudalwindergmailcom]

I hanve been watching your videos i find your repersentation and explanation is matchless . i liked most all of them becau se it is streightforward. Thanks for that. I have one project i want to send it you for reviews. How to do it let me know thanks again

[@TechsScience]

So i learnt a new applications of capacitor

[@ImTheReal]

They also can be used to make magnets 😊

[@foureyedchick]

Eric Laithwaithe did this sort of thing in England in the 1960s and 1970s.

[@128Wojtek]

Thanks for the video, you're doing great job!

[@namrudgirma8147]

Repeat the test with a coil by the place of aluminum and prove it would jump higher. You can do all kind of tests by changing the projectile

[@Not-C-418]

Make can crusher with the capacitor bank

[@charlesbucholz8079]

Awsome man!

[@ImTheReal]

Now you can DIY your own magnetic coil gun 😄

[@farabielec]

It is an electric gun !

[@AhmedAlshameri]

Maybe you can make mini railgun 😉 of course with different shape of coil 🙃

[@bruteforce7746]

Can you make a nail gun with this

[@oqueedeuseoquechamadodeus5346]
