Sounds easy to make
Until you notice you are broke 😢
U forgot to add money
LOL just casually throws in the CNC machine after using a rotary tool. Flex much?
It would be fun to see you make another type of propulsion system. Can you try make a bladeless fan using a thin flapping membrane, maybe get creative with the design and try different shapes and layouts?😁
An ionic Zeppelin? Cool idea Rocket Lord! Dont worry about that Ionic thrust plane - you, peter, and I have that covered.
We shall !!!
hello@@integza
Would it be possible to surround the plasma with a magnetic field spiralling the ions and creating an electromagnetic propeller?
y'all can have that covered, but do y'all have a build off challenge covered?!?!?!
@@integza make the zeppelin a ball, put solar panels on each side and make sure to use two ion engines so it becomes a Twin Ion Engine Zeppelin :D
Oh yeah i remember you told me about this project when we talked at open sauce. Very cool to see!
One of my favorite ytbers - any new videos soon?
It came to life ! 😁
Now try plasma thing on all periodic elements
Now try and make this into an aerospike engine. And can you measure the thrust of this?
Is it efficient ?? i mean a video about a comparisation between a boat or ziplin powred with this with another one powred with regular fan can very interesting.
please make a rocket powered boat. What would be the best design? Floating on water with fins? semi submerged?
ntegza, your exploration of the ionic plasma thruster is truly inspiring! With utmost respect, envision pushing boundaries further by collaborating with industry leaders, bringing futuristic propulsion to new heights.
You could add a small rudder so you can make it turn and you could add a cardboard on the back to give some upward thrust.
You don't need a rudder. just connect different part of the rings to different electric potentials and you will have "solid state trust vectoring".
@@JerkerMontelius Solid state thrust vectoring... thats a first
@@JerkerMontelius I would love to see this!
you can turn using differental thrust, some rocket launch vehicles already do this by reducing and increasing thrust on different engines unequally.
Heck, add a remote control chip to it!
Build or buy a stirling cryocooler 🥶🥶🥶 Tomatoes are disgusting!
Yes, I always wanted to buy one but I never found out where are they sold
3d print it XD
won’t the friction cause it to melt and cryocoolers usually need helium. and buying them will cause a fortune.
@@Zeddify no you can get them for like 300 euro
@@Zeddify and integza has helium and a cnc machine
Hey, great video. Take that design and using the same principle design of a jet engine, have smaller and smaller thrusters in an axial pattern, so each thruster speeds up the air flow of the last. The final one leading to a nozzle, I bet it will produce pretty high air flow
It would be nice to see this with some small linear actuators connected to control surfaces around the thruster to allow control. If you used something like an ESP32 you could potentially make it bluetooth/wifi controllable.
The idea to 3D print a part and electroplate to reduce weight but also stay conductive is insanely genius. I always love watching your content
Most definitely for low power applications it's genius thinking
Very interesting...I see that the part you printed stimulates the Venturi principal for airflow. Nicely done. Fascinating subject.
I wonder if this design would be improved by the addition of the "vortex plasma" effect. Basically the back ring would be replaced by a donut shaped magnet with the plasma encircling the center like a plasma propeller. It would increase the weight a lot but for a boat style setup, like your test, it would be interesting to compare thrust difference, if any.
I would love to see a collaboration between you and @PlasmaChannel to see who's ionic thruster is more efficient/faster in a race!
Brilliant, would love to se a version with fins at the rear to see if lift is possible.
Man glad to see you're back :)
id like to see a turbine version. i saw a cool jet turbine with empty core thats rotor ran on the outside cowling of engine & blade pitch was achieved by rotating one of the 2 rings they where fixed to forward or back. you could use the ionic wind to combust fuel air mix make a ionic scram jet :P
You have many examples, search "Biefeld brown"
I saw that u have a Serbian Nikola Tesla on ur wall. Great POSTER Nice video!

Great Video, it was so inspiring, so i will build definitivly my own Ionic Plasma Thruster. Thanks for that!
Очень интересная задумка, если сделать в большем маштабе и более мощный источник питания + подобрать наилучшую форму диффузора, то вполне реально сделать двиготель который сможет поднять что-то более тяжёлое. Хотелось бы увидеть продолжение этой темы 👍
Есть технология - плазменные двигательные панели, расположены в виде круглых зон по периметру и на днище летательного аппарата, а плазменный импульс создают ячейки в виде микрорельсотронов. Если на рельсовые контакты подать электроток, индукция разгоняет искру замыкающую контакты до космических скоростей. Понятно, что импульс, создаваемый рельсотроном, можно использовать не только для выстрела, но и для движения. Поэтому достаточно давно на космических аппаратах устанавливают импульсные двигатели, которые в нужный момент выстреливают плазмой для перехода с одной орбиты на другую. Есть статья в журнале МАИ «Абляционный импульсный плазменный двигатель». Но такие двигатели крупные: струя плазмы возникает при сгорании пластиковой заглушки между электродами. А у двигательных плазменных панелей, где соединены вместе мини-разрядники ячеек (как у плазменных телевизоров), там рельсотроны уменьшены до размеров шариковой ручки, собраны в плоские панели, которые по конструкции напоминают плазменные панели телевизоров. Расстояние между контактами незначительно - до 1 мм - перемычкой между ними становится искра разряда. Работают ячейки синхронно: стреляют струйками плазмы - искрами электроразрядов, ускоренных силой индукции. Скорость большая, количество рельсотронов в панелях доходит до сотен тысяч - суммарный двигательный импульс в итоге огромен! Разряды идут с мегагерцевой частотой, каждый импульс ударяет о воздух, который завихряется в тороидальные кольца. Эти двигательные панели используются для летательных аппаратов в атмосфере: снизу и по движению создается импульсами плазменных панелей столб кольцевых вихрей - так и летает... В вихревой струе, за счет вращения воздуха, падает температура - влага из воздуха вымораживается снежинками, на которых искрится свет, созданный электроразрядами панели. Получается некий «твердый луч», который при покачивании аппарата изгибается за счет искривления траектории отлетающих вихревых колец. Впрочем, эта технология совсем не супер. Летают они быстро и маневренны - из-за легкости аппарата, но от импульсных плазменных двигателей - СВЧ излучение. Грузоподъемность низка. Радиосвязи нет. Узкая ниша применимости - редкие шпионские миссии. Сейчас вообще уже неактуальны. Потому и рассекречивают...
I love boomerangs, they have a fascinating history as a primitive weapon and object that was even found on tutankamons tomb. You should try some with 3D printing or making molds to make some of exotic materials.
Tiruliru is the best!
A boomerang with an ionic thruster!
He might come back to that.
It seems like one of the challenges of reducing the thrust to weight ratio is the fact that you can't miniaturize the capacitor that you are using. My gut reaction is that the tube/ring is undersized for the capacitor and needs to be scaled up to increase the thrust and maximize the overall thrust to weight ratio. Some experimentation may be required to determine the optimal assembly for your capacitor. One side idea that I had was what if you had a closed ring with these. Use the thrusters to continually accelerate the gas in the ring. Once up to speed, you would open the ring/divert the flow and allow the gas to flow out a nozzle. The benefit of this would be in situations like space where you need to conserve the accelerant/gas. The downside would be that the thrust would be in pulses. Overall, in space small, efficient bursts of thrust seem to be preferrable over a continuous inefficient flow.
The real challenge is voltage conversion. There are a few possible solutions. First is to use a ganfet matched to an air gapped transformer with high turns ratio. You could play around with ferrite doping, but core saturation and hysterisis become a headache and I think the most reliable/consistent design will be one designed to go coreless that will fit into the light weight category. Still, the coil profile will become an issue to prevent arcing between windings or into the primary side. This can be done, but there are some differentials we need to consider. We can modulate power three ways. Duty cycle, current cutoff, and voltage. For all coils, for any given current in them, they contain a set amount of energy. By calculating the time constant, we can derive what a half wave looks like. That gives us energy over time for power - the duty cycle being the ratio of time available for energy handling vs the time used. We can modulate power, then, by effectively modulating the pulse repetition frequency. The other way to throttle the design is to switch off the fet at a set current that is below the minimum voltage drop. This would not likely be necessary, but may have its applications if a low prf proves problematic and creates sparks or otherwise results in unstable corona behavior at low power envelopes. The third way is supply voltage. As time constants relate to the properties of components, not the applied voltage/current values, the power available to the circuit goes up as a square of the maximum voltate it is allowed to be driven at, provided the components can tolerate it. Incorporating all of that into a design shouldn't be that hard and then programming it with a profile for the physical drive would allow it to potentially optimize performance according to various scenarios. A more novel design would be the use of a standing wave multiplier in a reflex klystron tube with a power microwave circulator (or even direct microwave plasma production) for rectification and re-amplification. This is a novel approach, but it was what I used about 15 years ago in a proposal for a similar project. You might be able to use the same concept with a network of circulators and "resonant cavities" (using wires and innate capacitance to emulate a cavity) to make a microwave reflection charge pump... which is like having a klystron with a different type of headache than those caused by klystrons. Lc networks are basically the same thing but at much lower frequencies. We need high frequency, here, to get the most out of small component values that fit our weight budget.
@@Aim54Deltacan't tell if turbo encabulator or genius.
@@brynbailey5482 Well, obviously, I would insist genius, but my adult IQ scores don't quite hit genius (though I suspect my IQ in gradeschool was over 140 - they brought in some people to give me special tests - so, either extremely smart or extremely dumb and subjected to an experiment where I was told I was pretty smart to see what happened - which I like to pretend is the case for comedy's sake at times). I have ambitions to one day create a range of videos on this and to build designs to demonstrate various principles. I'm not there, yet - I can't really focus on projects and hold a day job well, but am getting a business or two set up so I can manage my income/time ratio a bit better, and do some of those types of videos. I do appreciate that you don't just jump to turbo encabulator assumptions, though. We live in a society that has been so competitive that word salad is everywhere - both from a "I know things" standpoint and from corporate jargon that uses many words to say nothing when not trying to convince you that sodomy with a metal file is fun and enjoyable. If you want an example of one thing I was talking about - look up reflections in variable frequency drives. Because of the difficulty in matching impedance in practice, using VFDs in real world solutions, the higher frequency switching used to create the descrete steps of a sinusoid propagate and reflect off of the coil of the motor, creating return voltage spikes which can be higher than the source voltage. This is the same basic principle of a klystron except it uses resonant cavities along a traveling wave tube to enhance the effect. You can often emulate transmission line lengths by using cpacitors and inductors, so it may be possible to use transmission line with attached lc tank circuits to emulate a klystron at lower frequencies than what is practical for a klystron. At some point, annequlibrium is reached between power in, component loss, and transmission despite impedance mismatch. We are using the lack of impedance matching to build up enough voltage so that what goes through the mismatch equals power in.... with potentially unacceptable conversion loss - but it's possible it could be more efficient than a boost, buck-boost, flyback or similar converter as those are usually only 85% efficient at best, and at these conversion ratios tend to be in the 60% range. That would be a lot of resistive loss for a set of resonant lc networks, so it might be competitive.
The concept of an ionic thruster airship has been in my mind for a long time, but I had no idea how to do it. Thanks for the video.
hay @Integza I have made one of these today but used carbon fiber strands for my crown part. I part copper plaited the dry carbon so I could solder to it. I remembered seeing an aeroplane lightning conductor at the wing tip it was like a carbon areal that was frayed at the last inch. I know you have access to carbon and plating you might want to try it as it gives hundreds of super fine ends for the corona to build up on. solder and then trim with scissors to get them even and then fluff them up a little.... my only Issue is the units want to blow up all the time need to be super careful with the voltage and amps... you may find it hard to plate a carbon cloth as the conductance will vary with it being loose try clamping the ends between two blank circuit boards/ flat copper etc or failing that plate each strand separately
knowing that you visited the liquid piston lab, what about axial flux electric motors???
👍🏻🆙🆙🆙🆙 good idea
😊
You should go down the corona discharge pipeline and try your hand at Kirlian photography. It looks similar to what you built here but instead of controlling the direction of the corona discharge to create thrust, the corona discharge covers the entire object with the same neon purple color. Combining this with the carbon spray paint and copper coating and you could have a very interesting photos!
Do you know if is this high voltage module dangeours? It is 400 KV, so I assume you will get a shock, but if the input is 5A at 6V, the output current should be something like 0.3 uA.
You're genuinely brilliant! I was envisioning an aerodynamic ring with a center spike that could be the aft-end of a fuselage body. Sort of like a prop-fan. (I generally dislike propfans for many reasons. But for EHD, it makes sense. As accelerated airflow over wings changes stability and control). There is NO WAY I would have so rapidly come up with a solution let alone a brilliant one. 3d printing and electroplating was genius. The serrated training edge on the ring is really good also. The future improvement will be larger diameter, longer gap, more voltage.
Love your channel. it's challenging, so here's one for you. When magnets repel, it is called the Coulomb effect. If you squeeze this down to milli metres like 0,3 and pass a current across a doubled pair of ring magnets, tap a second positive and common negative you will get more energy out than you put in, the gap is sparked with ball lightning that increase electron flow...it will solve you weight problem and drive your units
I would love to see this thruster scaled up to the size of your previous ionic thruster!
Scaled up, and layered like the first one for a multiplication effect, and if you put the whole thing in a shroud with a mild condenser at the end, this thing might actually be able to push a glider. Not very fast, but I bet it would at least work.
You could add a small cardboard (or 3d printed) elevator on the back to give some upward thrust. You could also add a small rudder so you can make it turn in circles.
TRIM TABS lul
Great use of Engineering and Science, nice to see. I have always wondered if it was possible to make a particle accelerator, which I used when I was in University while taking Engineering.
Wow....what a great demonstration....really happy to see this
A cool video idea would be to make a thrust measuring stand, seeing all your designs improving is amazing and need testing!
Try Magnetohydrodynamic propulsion next
You know? It's fun and joyful watching your podcast. Thak you, I learned a lot.
I’d like to see in depth where and how it’s generating thrust and how this process could theoretically be improved
I may be going out on a limb here, but I think you just produced the WORLD'S FIRST ION powered zeppelin. Well done!
*laughs in Antarctic German*
A balloon aint a zeppelin.
@@u-k shut up nerd
Doesn't have a rigid frame or steering so no. It's pretty cool, but it's neither a world first nor a zeppelin.
Get a life@@EldeNice
You should try to make a pocket-sized jet engine from a gas lighter.
Butane or propane, or some liquid fuel like kerosene using a venturi to atomise it.
thats fun idea
The needed current for galvanising is calculated by the surface, there is no general maximum. Also the electrolyte induces negative or positive tension on different currents, you need to find out with a very thin plate, where the optimum (tension-free) for your specific electrolyte is. The voltage shows, if you overload the part. Best voltage is 1-2 volts, but with small surface even this is too much. Go with the current calculation ( we use 2A/dm² ) and only mind voltage above 2 volts by checking the contacts
You are amazing.... this can for sure with modifications be used in space transportation
You know how superconductors float on magnets when cool? How about creating a small kind of magnet track that has a floating Ionic Plasma Thruster? Seems like a cool idea to me. You can even decorate it like a car or a train. I think it will look pretty cool with the thrusters visible. (I don't have a 3D printer nor have I ever won a giveaway, so if this comment gets the most likes, it would be pretty cool.)
Cool idea! Would love to see it in action. And hey, hope you win that giveaway!
@@SumitaRoy-hb7th I agree, but it may be a problem keeping the superconductors cool. You would also need some pretty big superconductors to keep it hovering. But if it happens, would love to see it.
@@subartaroy7080 I agree. But if anyone could do it, it would be Integza!
Желаю вам выиграть, хоть ваша идея и очень не проста в реализации. На данном технологическом этапе суперпроводник требует очень низких температур. Хотя об этом уже писали. Но я не об этом, даже если вы не выиграете, рекомендую вам приобрести 3д принтер, эта штука того стоит, ответственно заявляю, как 3д печатник со стажем 😉🍻
@@user-is3tn9mj4vHonestly, I don't really comment on videos and don't even normally participate in giveaways cuz I know that I am probably too late to win at that point. But integza is a growing channel, and I commented on this video pretty early, so it seems like I have a chance of winning. But of course, life is a gamble, so let's hope for the best 🙏. As for the impossibilities, maybe integza could get a superconductor cooled using liquid nitrogen and use it? Like, if you use liquid nitrogen, then it would stay cool for a long time no doubt.
Honestly a series of toying through nikolas old patents would be awesome!
You should make a ionic engine that is built into the wing not just placed on top of and the thrust should move with the natural flow of the wing to not cause any unneeded Greg / turbulence to improve efficiency.
Fighters jet with plasma thruster, you can also try using one voltage converter
You could try to build a mini rollercoaster track for a small levitating train, using a type2 superconductor for the train and magnets for the rails. What would make it really cool is the fact that it could go on loops and upside down since a type2 superconductor actually locks it in place in the magnetic fields on the y-axis(height) The superconductor would need to be cooled periodically but it would still e be VERY cool and fun to build
Yoo make it bigg for big fun 😂😂
You should print up a geared turbo charger or basically a pro charge supercharger closed loop thruster on the end of your plasma engine to see if it would increase thrust? It would definitely be a first!
ya but that would burn through the battery in 1 second you would need to have at last 6 batteries and then adjust weight for the engines to produce enough base thrust without needing the booster.
This was great teaching. You broke it down so well🤞✅✅💯
Make the emmiter out of a thin wire mesh. Bonus points if you can coat it with cvd diamond coating. Make the collector into a kind of reverse rocket nozzle with a spike in the middle. This way you maximise the surface area for a minimum of form drag. If you are seeing corona discharge , the electrodes are too close.
It would be interesting to see the effects of air pressure on the thrust of the ionic engine, ie. running in a vacuum or pressurized chamber. Also, it might be worth mentioning that ionic engines produce a bit of ozone, so a well ventilated area is a good idea.
WOW..... I have never heard of this miraculous technology and or the principle of Iconic Plasma Thrust.... Simply Amazing. Your presentation is informative and entertaining. God Luck for your future technological and inventive explorations....👍👍👍👍👍👍💐💐
really like the way you explain andmake it visual. Thanks very interesting.
Idea for future video - Since air is a fluid....could a ionic thruster be used in other fluids? Could this be applied to a submersible vehicle of some sort? The world's first ionic-powered sub? Maybe a torpedo to kill all the tomato-maids..... (Tomato Mermaids)
Perhaps a ionic driven turbine??
Wait...Does it work in water? That's actually an interesting idea....
♫♫ WE. ALL. LIVE. IN. IONIC. SUBMARINESSSSS. ♫♫🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
@@MrFunkyPunkie It depends, the whole idea is that the medium (the fluid) be non conductive. Water can be conductive.
@@MrFunkyPunkie Since water (at least salt or sea water) is conductive, the high voltages get shorted, there is however a related technology called MHD thrusters that does work under water for stealth drives. But its basis is not ions but electrolysis and magnetic fields
Future video theme : MHD thruster using stealth proportional with magnets
Yoo that's great it is used in submerine I guess 😅😅
Ya it is bro
I really liked it and I will explore this research to use in other projects. Very cool congratulations!!!!
Wow! That looks amazing! I wonder if this would work in outer space, where instead of pulling through air molecules and ejecting them out the back as propellant, it would do the same with whatever matter/dust/etc is in space.
I think quite an interesting model using this would be to attempt to hook the thrust rings in series, where you could potentially have a whole chain of thrusters powered off the one power source until the electricity lost it's ability to arc through the air. Maybe even with each ring getting larger. This might help to increase efficiency and thrust, and adequate testing would be cool to see along side various iterations of the series hoops. It may also look cool having multiple chained with multiple arcs. As for use of the thrusters I think attempting to make a glider would be a cool use!
The electroplating idea was really cool! Love the 3D printing combined with all the other tech
You should try combining these thrusters with a DWFTW-type device that utilizes the immediate thrust to accelerate the wheel(s) while utilizing the escaping thrust as extra thrust...
You could possible figure out a way to increase air flow through the build making: adding a turbo like rotor to maximize high speed airflow possible opening a opportunity for a light weight hover craft. Just have to find a way to decrease the overall mass of the batteries
I love it! Such a simple design! Video Idea: tomato cannon!
A remote controlled version of the ionic zeppelin would be awesome! Would make some epic camera shots if it could carry one!
I don`t know a lot about physics, only as an Applied Mathematics and Computer Science bachelor but here some thoughts after i watch this video. 1) Since you have figured out a best effective distance between cathode and anode( can we call them like that?) you can try to combine multiple pairs of cathodes and anodes in one tube. 2) As we saw in your video, cathode and anode tubes are not equal in diameter, so you can make each pair in the shape of cone, wrapped in light and thin isolating material, so you can stuck them more closely (like ice cream cones in the store, but with bigger hole in the center .). Maybe with this approach it will be better to use round- shaped wires for more compact solution. 3) Assuming that air molecules are bombarded by electrons, which, as we can clearly see from the video, move only on the "surface of the cone", there is no need to make big gaps between each layer of isolation a.k.a individual ionizer, because the air in the center is not affected by the electron strikes and in essence it seems to me to only slow down the flow (with individual ionizer) 4) perhaps when combining several ionizers, there will be some "air traffic jam" in the center of the tube. It may be better to configure the switching on of individual ionizers using a microcontroller. You will have to tinker with the configuration, but it will save energy consumption and "push" the air through the tube more efficiently. Thank you for the video it was very interesting, hope to see more updates on this project soon
Just recently discovered this channel. I love it! I think it would be cool to make a Stirling Heat engine and try to figure out to to get more power output from it
I think you should do a video on a coanda effect thruster and how it could be used. Whilst its more used in aerodynamica i think it could be well worth exploring how it can be used for thrust
I believe the reason why the 3 thrusters were not going faster in the water is because the board they were on top of was now almost fully submerged which caused more drag when moving, hence slowing it down Basically the system needs to be much lighter to for it to work
Yup. As others have found. Incidentally this is the air equivalent of an MHD caterpillar. Wonder if anyone has tried using my version yet? Seems to be very novel.
Maybe making it more efficient to be able to produce self-thrust (Keep it in the air/slow its fall) or as efficient side thrusters to a light drone type obj.
Theme for a future video: How about putting a remote control ionic "rudder" on the thruster and then flying it around the room on a balloon? Then could you host a "Balloon Bots" competition (sort of like Battle Bots) with just helium balloons and ionic plasma thrusters. Could have obstacle course races, bumper-cars, etc... maybe even play "Balloon Bot Football" where teams have to push a balloon into the opposing team's goal on the opposite wall. 🙂
You should collaborate with Peter and make a 3D printed jet powered plane or Maybe a ionic plaen
This would be cool
I wanna see this
Look at that smile 0:12 . Integza is happy af for making it that powerful hahaha, good job man!
Thank u very much for your perception it's amazing.I have some ideas I built a filter for any gas engine.that convert's carbon monoxide to No2
u can make a coil gun as when we press the button the iron bullet will oscilate around the coil and when iron piece come to the front postion attach a laser security with a bc transistor and attach a motor and when the laser will be blocked the motor will rotate and break the circuit and the the coil no longer be magnetic
I love that we now have entered a low-key race between Integza and Plasma Channel! 😂 Who will be the first one to build an Ionic Plasma Thruster strong enough to propell themselves?? Let the games begin!! 🔥🏆🔥
I have always been fascinated by Ion thrust. I hope you do more on this subject. I would like to see a scaled up version of the ionic thruster, a scaled down circuit and battery. Maybe Styropyro can help you with the circuit...
You could try injecting a small amount of helium into the plasma thrusted for more power (and heat probably) a small injector carrying 10-15 psi of helium placed near the edge of the nickel band
To help glide the boat you should try aiming the thruster to hit the surface of the water pushing the boat forward 👍🏻
Awesome! Imagine a ionic plasma skateboard, or a ionic plasma engine boosted remote control F1-style car! Can't wait for your next video!
Would be interesting if You could create some kind of potential differential between the ring and the thruster, maybe this can accelerate more the ionic particles and the air through the pipe, creating more thrust. Or modifying the Frequency of the capacitor to get more speed when the ionic particles are shooted.
ive never had the tools to confirm a theory about ion propulsion. thankyou
This is absolutely brilliant! I guess that in space, anything powered like this this would just get faster and faster. Next generation space travel!
8:40 watch out for f-22 raptors
Hahah nice one
Haha yeah
Awesome video! It whould be amazing if you could make and RC car powered by an ionic plasma thruster or someting like that.
I want to ask you something, the owner of the page he said i won the 3d printer and he send me on telegram and said send me shiping money , do you confirm that is him
@@mohammedaminmannsour5370NO! NO! NOOOOOO!!!! Also, NO!
@@mohammedaminmannsour5370NO, you are getting scammed
I immediately thought it would be amazing to make a Star Wars pod racer using the ionc thrusters somehow 😎
Can you incorporate your ION THRUSTER with a rocket stove, so you are forcing more air into the stove for much higher heat and you could power a steam engine? I believe with the burning pieces of wood and the low energy you input with your plasma fan, the steam engine would be much more output than input. So I say the "PREPPERS DREAM".............a steam engine powered electric generator , with the help of your plasma fan. What a way to make electricity off grid.
It would be neat to test out different nozzles for one of your jets or thrusters, seeing which produces the most thrust. Love your videos
id like to see you scale this one up as you have previous thrusters you've made as per usual your video keeps me interested from start to finish and i cant wait to see what you come up with next
Very interesting work! Can you make a submarine out of this thruster:)? To improve the thrust, maybe consider stacking them together and improving the shape of the nozzle?
I'd love to build an air ship that uses this type of engine and use atmospheric electric as power eliminating the need for batteries. ..love your work..keep it up ✌🏽✌🏽
A Maglev train would be awesome🚋!
I was just about to say that🙄
Would that be possible even sir?
Ofc why not? Just scale down to a small version of a maglev. But i am still interested in seeing how to approach such a project
Put the air thing up side down look if it fly
Tryed making a hot wheels track with magnets 🧲 on track a car didn’t work would be great toy idea 💡 a hover car using cheap magnets a car ran on track
This is the exact design I theorized when watching the plasma channel! So cool to see an idea I thought up was in the same vein as other AND actually built. Super cool.
It would be interesting to see a hovercraft that uses this kind of thruster, maybe you can use the same transformer to power multiple thrusters to reduce the weight.
i would attempt to use 2 transformers for 3 thrusters, it would be just a little lighter, but the transformer also wont be doing as much work if there was only one of them running 3 thrusters
A hovercraft needs so much more thrust and pressure. Ion thrusters have very low (specific) thrust. I mean you could put it on top of a hovercraft being floated by a fan, but then you may as well power the whole thing with a fan.
@@thorwaldjohanson2526at first the skirt of the hovercraft can be powered by a regular fan, but the moving of the hovercraft could be done with the ionic thruster. This way he could check and compare the speed of the hovercraft with different thruster models on a reusable machine.
This is so good and the colour of flames so nice. Will make bigger and fly faster with the ballon
It would be really cool if you combined the concepts of a turbojet, with an ionic thruster and an alternator to make an energy engine like in Starwars.
This is a really interesting concept that could apply to a lot of different areas. Maybe a future video could be trying to create a drone using the ionic thruster and high power energy converters in the shell of the drone. Another video idea is maybe creating a hoverboard with this tech. The platform for the hoverboard itself could be copper plated, and using the ionic thruster, possibly glide across the platform. It would be really cool to see how this can be applied in other areas.
If the thruster was strong enough to support its own weight it would be cool to have an ionic hovering vehicle. You could also have the boat, blimp whatever else race each other for IONIC GLORY!
Love the video and the accessible information. The suggestions of a compressor to make a jet engine is along the lines of what i was thinking. Also could a positive charge at the front of the tube help attract the electrons and a negative charge help expell them increasing thrust (and weight :( What happens if you turn the thruster around and point it at a sail?
Thank you very much for the great video and your detailed explanation! As the voltage used is many thousands of volts, I have the following question: Does this also produce dangerous ratio-active radiation?
hey! An physics major here. Would love to see you have a crack at a Hall-Effect Thruster. Take your ION thrust game to the next level! 💪🏼
For your next video try to make an acoustic or sonic thruster. There are videos of machines that use ultrasonic sound to levitate drops of water so maybe that principle could be applied to creating thrust?
I would love to see you explore ionics a bit more, could your ion thruster work creating thrust from INSIDE a large balloon sort of like a fully enclosed airship, a dirigible with internal drive?
I'd like to see how you would improve Plasma Channel's recent underwater thruster. Specifically, with electroplating techniques to minimize weight for improved speed. Thank you!
Video Idea : You should use a Cockroft-Walton Generator/Multiplier for generating the high voltage required, it's pretty simple and can be made very lightweight with little effort. And as you're electroplating the positive side with copper, why not try using LW-PLA lightweight pla filament for the electrode and the housing? And maybe use a ducted design? it's gonna outperform this version in many ways. P.S. Tomatoes are disgusting!
You have created the future mode of transportation, my friend. Plasma electric hover cars, airplanes and boats. Genius!
Can you to a video on atmospheric electricity? I'm working on a Hydroponic multi/ generator, and a 3Dprinter would make this much more possible.
