[@lukearts2954]

I hope you read new comments on older videos still: If you combine this video with your more recent video about self-cooling paint, and then build a system made with wind pipes, you could make a fully passive air-conditioner. The wind pipes generate the standing wave, the heat dissipating paint will radiate the heat away (either by feeding heatpipes to a cooling panel, or by painting directly onto the tube in the hot areas. The heat should radiate outward because of how your paint is made (the painted surface sticks to the paint layer slickly, allowing conductive transfer into the paint, while it also prevents the paint from radiating it back into the tube, while the outside will have a greater contact surface with air, allowing for convective cooling on top of radiation as soon as the temperature goes above ambient. Now if the wind is created by passive ventilation techniques, it would let the hot air create the resonance tone on the way out, while the cooled air pushes down and into the room, creating a fully passive clean cooled airflow even when there is no wind outside.

You should try to get a company to send/sponsor you with a thermal camera, you could use one so much!

It's satisfying to read such a comment. I do teach physics and love to play guitar. Once I had a very talented (musician) student. He needed to pass some tests in order to go as a exchange student. I was supposed to guide him according to the stablish study guide. He was way behind on math & physics. So, change of plans, fuck the study guide. I ask him to calculate the note will be produced by a string of a material, x lenght, and stretched by and T force. Immediately his mind set changed for the best, and got interested into the math and physics required, which eventually helped him to take those tests like a piece of cake, and got the grades he needed without hating physics and math as often occurs.

[@jamesraymond1158]

Reminds me a an experiment done around 1967 with microwaves. A standing wave was set up with about 5 nodes and a row of plants along the standing waves. The height of the plants depended on their position along the standing wave. The height was attributed to temperature: where the waves superimposed, the temperature was higher and the warmer temp made the plants grow better. Where the waves interfered with each other, there was no temp increase.

[@sevret313]

The way you've been able to break things down into a MUCH easier to comprehend way is honestly stunning. This is such a complicated topic with so much to try to grasp, yet you've managed to not only flawlessly explain it all, you manage to do it without ever sounding pompous. That said, HOLY HELL thermoacoustics is SO freaking cool! I never would have thought about using the flow of sound to generate/dissipate heat or even generate power. It would be incredibly interesting to see what the efficiency of such systems would be and explore whether or not they could be feasibly be used in lieu of more traditional methods. Like, is there a way that you could utilize the (natural or artificial) wind to generate a tone that could power one. What kind of energy could a thermoacoustic system provide under those conditions, and would it even be possible. It'd also be really interesting to see if different gas compositions (in a closed system) would produce results that are different than the natural atmosphere and what difference they would/could make. Higher/lower temps? Faster/slower diaphragm movement? Etc. There are a million questions that could be investigated; could it be possible to generate visible light using a certain gas mixture in a specific situation?

[@gypsyjones1722]

very cool. There was something I saw using a bose style acoustic wave guide to amplify the sound-wave from a very small speaker on one end and transmit a much larger energy pulse to a diaphragm on the other end. The diaphragm was then coupled to a rod which powered a piston compressor for the refrigerator. The article stated that inside the wave-guide the sound level was amplified to an astounding 500 decibels! It also stated that if you were to open up the wave guide while it was in operation that it would disrupt the waveform and there would be almost no sound or energy inside the wave-guide enclosure. I thought this would be a revolution in the field of cooling and applicable to many other devices as well but I've not seen the device being implemented yet and it's been a few years now since I saw the concept explained from an M.I.T. paper.

I became fascinated by this subject when I read a report that staff at Los Alamos used a thermally excited acoustic heat engine to cool the tins of beer served at a staff outing, come barbecue. The solid state cooler worked by placing one end of the unit in barbecue fire, and the other in a water cooler bath for the cans of beer. The whole unit resonated at a very low frequency, emitting a low humming sound. From memory, the report showed a dumbbell shaped arrangement with an air gap between the hot and cold sides. A schematic drawing showed the arrangement of parallel metal plates, refering to the dumbbells as Holmholtz resonators. From memory, the report was in an issue of Scintific America or New Scientist. I have since learned that the technology has found an application in nuclear submarines, but I do not have the details of what is being cooled or heated, but I believe it is the submarines electronics.

Run the output of the speaker into a rectifier and capacitor. Control the motor with a potentiometer. The thing will run itself plus a light. The cone multiplies the sound from the needle to its largest point exponentially, for free!!! Just 1 way to go over unity.

Yes please! I would love to learn more about this topic, with some tweaking I may be able to use one of these as a small grow tent cooler, for highland carnivorous plants, and pump the heat exhaust out the window!

Absolutely brilliant, please continue with this series!

Amazing work! Reminds me of various chapters of 'Sound', written by John Tyndall. I don't normally comment on videos, but i find this subject to be particularly fascinating and you are doing such an amazing job presenting these concepts, so please continue! 🙏🌌🎧

You're my only source for this black magic I need more.

[@biancabonet]

It's the dark energy 😁

[@Nightstick24]

It feels like it should be black magic! If they’d taught this in school maybe physics wouldn’t be so dreaded?

Absolutely fascinating. As a musician and speaker designer, this physics lesson really appeals to me! Thanks!

[@phils7108]

real science goes from experiment to theory. We have too much science that is only based on mathematics and models. What you do is real science. Thank you very much.

[@BobRoss-bp2yv]

Honestly, I never thought Science lessons could be so much fun and enjoyable.

See, this is why I love physics. I would absolutely love to see more. There’s nothing that feeds my adhd brain dopamine quite like this.

The way you explain proves that it's your technology
