Powerful steam engine build. Homemade steam engine.

Hello friends, this video is about steam engine build. This engine is a single cylinder engine. Its cylinder has 12.5mm bore with depth of about 100mm which makes it 12.2cc engine. Bigger flywheel is fitted to engine to increase the moment of inertia and greater power. the flywheel is 100mm in diameter and the inner holes are made from 40mm hole saw. this engine has a sturdy and durable crankshaft which is made from 10mm thick and 6 inches long threaded bolt. connecting rods are made from 1.5mm iron plate. valve is made from 20mm rod with 11.8mm bore and its piston is 11.77mm approx. with single acting arrangement. To run this engine I used the boiler that I had made in the previous video. This engine started working at about 7.5psi pressure.
I hope you all enjoyed the video. Please like and subscribe my channel.
Thankyou

Thankyou all for watching the video. Please suggest what should I build in next video.

what you did sir is very professional, is it possible to attach a permanent magnet synchronous generator so it can produce electricity? and what to take into consideration in order to attach it to the generator? thank you

Brilliant man. No lathe, no milling machine, no worries. Many people don't appreciate the skill required to achieve this build without the fancy gear.

There is NO WAY that cylinder is steam tight

[@shropshirehistory908]

@@gowdsake7103it’s not you can see it’s exhausting steam out the end of it..the small piston is pressure in…so I’m guessing as I’m no engineer that one piston runs the other…one pushes one pulls..the long one also exhausts the steam as well as having just enough pressure to push it back over on the return for the other to pull…and repeats cycle…I could be wrong.

[@briannemec9214]

@@shropshirehistory908 When the holes line up in the small cylinder ,valve, the steam goes to the large cylinder and pushes the flywheel. As the flywheel turns the small rod is moved and the hole is blocked. The steam cannot flow to the large cylinder. The other side of the small rod is ground so the steam from the large cylinder is not trapped, but can flow out of the large cylinder. This ground spot can be seen at 12:50, is very quick. The large cylinder has one purpose , to push the wheel. The valve does two things 1. allow steam to flow and stop the steam flow and 2. allow the large cylinder to empty out the used steam. hope that helps. kzbin.info/www/bejne/embcnXaupZuiraM

This is fantastic! A potential "all fuel" generator! Add some magnets, a stator and you're it!

[@raymondallenjhangiani7670]

Nice model 👍 the most interesting part is the reciprocating steam inlet valve !

[@randallmarsh446]

it is ..i was kinda thrown for a loop for a bit the way he designed it. but it definitly works no doubt!

[@gabereiser]

The flattened end will let the air out the end of the slide valve when fully engaged and then let air in through the hole when the valve retracts.

[@chrisstaylor8377]

Great ,but you need a proper visa on that drill

[@randallmarsh446]

this a very well thought out idea without having to use complicated machinery such as a lathe and a milling machine,, just standard tools that the average person can afford . Do you have a parts diagram with specs? And one last question ...imm not a matha matician by no means but about how much horse power do you think this steam engine you built puts out?just thinking this would be the ultimate backup power source for a dc generator or a a/c generator. for a backup emergency plan in case of a disaster ,,or a wwcrisis .. never know what these little ideas can be in time of need.ty for your time in doing these things . this generation needs more pepole like you who are taught to use what they have on hand and not whats they have to buy ...like the brain..lo!

[@royallan3717]

Nice work,I’d recommend a pressure safety release for the boiler

[@bigriggc5828]

I keep seeing this and makes perfect sense, but can you make one, or how do you know what pressure is too high

[@royallan3717]

@@bigriggc5828 it’s basically a needle and seat with and adjustable spring to release pressure at a given amount.if the engine runs on air at 50 psi you wouldn’t let the steam pressure get too high and want to release it. The boiler needs testing to 3 x it’s working pressure full of water

[@apstools5521]

​@@royallan3717royallan3717, thankyou for watching the video. this engine works on 7.5 psi, 50psi is way to high. And I didn't used safety valve as the boiler is fitted with pressure gauge to make sure the pressure remains within the limit less than 15 psi threshold for blast and at same time to cut off the gas supply for burner

[@randallmarsh446]

Do you know anything about hydraulic pumps and the different kinds there are?

The boiler need a way to conceall the fired in it and ensure the fire is not excess.

[@shropshirehistory908]

He has a pressure gauge on it so I’m guessing this way it regulates heat..if it was to be concealed the temperature would rise at same time raising the pressure…with the heat escaping the pressure stays were it is

[@DK-jt6be]

Very nice build sir! How does steam escape the main cylinder?

[@apstools5521]

Through hose and then valve outlet Check 13:42

[@DK-jt6be]

@@apstools5521 No I mean how it escapes the main cylinder. When steam comes in and pushes the piston forward, it has to get out of the cylinder, before the piston can go back, right? I only see the inlet valve, you linked to at 13.42 - but no outlet-valve?

[@apstools5521]

​​​@@DK-jt6bethere's a half cut section at back of the valve, when wheel inertia pushes main piston back hence steam out and it passes through half cut where valve piston is slided outwards and steam escapes check 12:50
