This might be on the dangerous side, but I'd like to see different kind of ammunition you can load this launcher with. I was thinking of a bottle that's rigged up to hold some lit steel wool.

Like WeX T said, weight in the tip, and 3-4 small fins near the back would probably suffice. I'd be careful with the weight though, be sure it's not free to move at all, otherwise that acceleration will likely mess up the end of the bottle. At camp I was in charge of launching bottle rockets, similar idea but much lower power, we'd fill the bottles half full with water and pressurize them to 100-120 psi. Even that, without combustion, led to some messy catastrophic failures on weakened bottles.

taiden In my experience launching at 120psi, fins alone don't help all that much, since they need to be well back from the center of mass. It doesn't need a lot of weight, even a handfull of sand in a cup at the end would be enough, since the bottle is so light that puts the center of mass much farther forward, improving the flight characteristics.

Could look cool if you drilled some tiny holes on the outsides of the pvc "muzzle" so rather than the whole flame coming out of the front of the tube, little jets would start coming just a little before... you might even be able to angle them to create a vortex inside the bottle.

This is an awesome update to your previous project, which is one of the coolest videos you have done IMHO. I think you really could take this a bit further by inserting a short section of CPVC in front of the ground areas where the bottle rests so you can put a #22 o-ring there. The purpose of the o-ring in my rockets is to prevent the air and water from escaping, but I think your launcher would benefit from the friction of the o-ring allowing the pressure to build up inside the bottle before the friction is overcome and the rocket releases at a higher velocity. It might also be worth experimenting with a one-way valve as well. I was thinking of a smaller pipe inside the barrel to allow the gas to flow, in the bottle. The one-way valve would be a simple rubber ball affair that is held open by gravity. The explosive pressure would be enough to drive the valve shut. In any case, the footage of your gun in action looks like it would make an awesome blaster effect in a sci-fi movie done without CGI. Very cool.
@Nighthawkinlight
@Nighthawkinlight 7 жыл бұрын
If you could get a one way valve to work it would certainly improve performance. Possibly you could have it held open by default with a spring and solve that issue. With a working valve you could add that o ring and probably get a nice result. The o ring alone could be tested on my previous alcohol fueled launchers
@USWaterRockets
@USWaterRockets 7 жыл бұрын
I'm sure a one way valve would work. Even a flap valve that was held open by gravity or tension of the flap itself. There are a lot of one way valves that are used in air cannons that could be adapted. Also, if you go with the o-ring, you will really need hearing protection! I had another idea... what if you made a gun with multiple barrels coming from a manifold on a single trigger? You could get some cool effects with counter rotating spirals and such.

Also the British navy used a multiple spigot mortar that launched anti-submarine bombs, called Hedgehog.

Do you think you would get more velocity by adding a trigger on the front of gun that you would pull after the bottle is primed, but before it is ignited? The trigger would nudge the bottle forward on the PVC so that it is seated on the fully round PVC (not the carved down portion) so that when it is ignited there is no leakage for the first few milliseconds like there is now in the current design. The trigger could be designed to be dual purpose to first nudge the bottle forward and then hit the ignition switch on the propane torch. Do you know if you would get more velocity on the bottle with a design change like this or is the leakage during the first few milliseconds so minimal that it has no significant effect on the bottle's launching velocity?

Really cool Project! i think the bottleneck (sorry) of the range of those soda bottles is them being not very aerodynamic. in that one shot the Bottle turned mid-flight. Maybe you could put a tip and some wings on to stabilise their flight or put some weight at the bottom of the bottle. It takes away a bit of the simplicity of the projectile so maybe you already thought about that and ditched the idea.

I once made a water bottle rocket for my son's school project after they'd all been show how and challenged to get the highest. I added three stabilisers and a conical head and our bottle rocket easily launched triple the height of anyone else from this. That was harder because we had to fit fins in a way the pressurised expanding bottle didn't drop them first. Not necessary here but I bet it will give you many times more range to do it.

@NightHawkInLight You should fill the soad bottle 1/3 full with water and then use the gas expansion on ignition to force the water out the back of the soad bottle. This would give it much more range. There would also be some residual water in the bottle after gasses have left giving the bottle more momentum to fight air resistance.

I am the president of my school's STEM club, and we were deciding on a bunch of projects to do this school year, the first project we are doing is the multi pendulum you showed, just thought that knowing that may brighten your day a bit, but was wondering if you could do some more fun school friendly builds. Love the videos, keep doing what you're doing

We added fins made of dollar store foam-board and affixed with hot glue. Easy peasey. The fins extend rearward, well beyond the bottle opening, so no extra nose weight is needed. We ran these up to 100 psi with an air cannon with good stability and no issues. Tip: the skinnier bottles go further! This propane solution is brilliant, and far more compact and PORTABLE than our original air cannon + pressure tank experiments.

Very cool. I know your probably not into making weapons like sling shot channel but it would be interesting to see if you could propel a steel ball with gas power. It may not be feasible but still I think it would be interesting to see. Thanks again.

Hi Nighthawk, I noticed the bottle was tumbling after launch. If you stuck some cardboard fins to the bottle, it should stabilise the flight. (used to work at a science museum)
