    Your setup has a lot of constriction and resistance to air flow, which favours static pressure over air volume. This tends to mean impellers are better than propellers. It might make it a bit less noisy.

    The server fan I ended up using was rated fairly high on static pressure. The trick with this build was that too much air caused an issue. I required just the right amount of flow down the blades. Too little and it didn’t travel. Too much, and it blew the arc out light a candle.

    Pro tip for blade handle shapes: don’t make perfectly round handles. You can’t feel the edge alignment of your blade with them, and they’re more likely to rotate in your hand, further messing up edge alignment. Ovoidal and rounded rectangular are the best cross-sectional shapes for handles.

    If you want to eliminate the spark getting "stuck" at the top, try removing the sharp points at the inside of the top gap. If you curved them away from each other, widening the gap at the top, the spark should extinguish as it is forced to the end (where the gap would get bigger). Round all corners and edges near this point. If you want to have sharp "stabbing" points, put them on the outsides of the blade where the point-enhanced electric field would be less (due to distance). The electrical field is related to the inverse of the curve radius, so any sharp points or edges need to be considered as arc-producing spots.

  • @InvaderX32
    @InvaderX323 ай бұрын

    I feel like you could help the problem of arcing at the tip by having the gap between the blades get wider there, like in Allen Pan's design - that way the arc has less "incentive" to stay at the top instead of restarting from the bottom. Also you should try and find a fan with the highest possible static pressure rating, to overcome the restrictions on the intake and exhaust.

  • @KonstantinDx

    Cool weapon! The upper part of the blades is very sharp, so the electric field strength is maximum on them. It was a problem on a first test. I guess the sharpest places should be placed further apart so that the sparks form more evenly along the entire length of the blade.

    I love the design. I would consider copper plating the inner edges of the blades to provide better thermal and conduction edges. Copper plating is super simple to do at home. You can even do pen plating, this is where you use a pen with like a felt or wool to apply the plating to the specific places you want. Its very simple to setup, copper sulfate is cheap and you can use solid wire as the source of copper, but a small pipe is generally a little better. I think the inner 1/8" of the blades copper coated would make for a nice 2 tone color design as well. Just my 2 cents. I have a few of those 10kv power sources from ebay, i haven't figured out a project for them yet but this is great inspiration. Keep up the great content

  • @jacobmajorana3307

    Two suggestions: first, try using a small drone motor to enhance airflow. Second, consider adding air holes just below the fan for increased efficiency. Additionally, plating the inside of the blades with a more conductive material could improve performance. Another idea place two clear pieces of plastic on both sides, just below the sharp part of the blade, as the lower end isn’t currently useful. Love the project keep up the good work!

    A cathode ray tube (CRT or old style TV screen) Runs at about 27,000 V. It can arc about an inch to 1.5". One time I had a TV that was putting out to much flyback voltage to the CRT (like a capacitor / battery) , and as I was explaining this to someone, I pointed to it, and it arced to my finger, about a 6 inch flash. I had on rubber soles, so nothing happened, lol, or it would have hurt. So I came away with a charge. Reminds me of a tesla plate.

    An easy method is to reconfigure a Tazer. The popping noise, a major deterrent. The noise would vary, as it traveled up blade, like a Jacobs ladder. It might not travel, if previous pulse is not fast enough to catch the last ionization trail, that is drifting up or away from start point. Tazers are notorious for strong brief pulses, with pause between.

    Great video! One tip for the blade shape: a higher primary grind is better for cutting. That knife uses a saber grind but it's a very low grind, resulting in a very obtuse angle. If space wasn't a constraint, the handle could have an oval cross-section to help blade alignment. Of course, if this is not used for cutting it's a non-issue.

    The FS Blade is very good but as we all saw that the plasma did't went up after a certain point. My advise please narrow the distance between the blades to about 5 or 4 mm and use a more conductive metal while increasing the 2 transformers to 3 and switching to the old handle but the same fan. This would do a lot better I think and can also be an great idea for a version 2 of The FS blade and if worked will shurely help in the actual Energy Blade.

    Something to remember especially with this design, is going bigger on fan size isn’t necessarily a factor here, but static pressure rating is what should be focused on, because the focus point you’re creating to it while also having tight and obstructed intake space, is making getting that air flow rather difficult.

    This was cool. I understand that air flow is an issue with putting out the arc flame. I think you should experiment more and refine this blade to get the plasma to be a solid field from root to tip, maybe some how enclose it. The look was great but more refinement for both aesthetic looks as well as functionality. I liked your idea for the future as well. Maybe have the plasma run along loops that are shaped as the blades some how filling the middle. If there is away to make the orange flickering fire not as prevalent or nonexistent keeping the brilliant purples whites and any other plasma looking color. Good luck!

    I have done this type of thing. If you create a surprisingly small B-field through the blade gap, then the arc will shoot right down the blade by the Lorentz force. If the blades were each magnets (axially) magnetized (PM)...or, alternatively, incorporate a couple of thin turns of tiny magnet wire (EM). No need for a fan, and you would also have the choice of shooting a capacitive discharge down the slot. --dALE

    You can make a sword based on this, changing the plasma generator with x2 40kv high voltage converter, x2 6000mAh lithium batterys, and a semi-turbine like fan for the plasma between the blades, and for the blades you can use tungsteno and silver, the blade that you made is so cool

    I really think before the next iteration, you should reach out to some of the knifesmiths and swordsmiths (the skills involved are slightly different between the two, enough to be important) on KZread, or the ones in your area if you can find them. I was kind of wincing about the short tangs on those blades, and I'm not even a Maker. My immediate suggestion would be the Tod's Workshop channel, but he's over in England, so physical assistance would be tricky.

    If your going to make the full blade i would think you should go with a backpack with power supply and all your components even including fans with piping/wiring to the wrist. With the blade being pretty much impossible you could make the glowing part of the blade in plexiglass and case it in wiring to make it visually as cool as possible in the dark also sandwiching the ionized air in-between the plexiglass to help with the air flow to the end of the blades.

    ANY CNC machine that I have sent work to had nozzel that dispensed a water base lubricant - aimed at the cutting bit, that would have prevented the very expensive bits that you showed from "melting".... As an air stream will disperse the cuttings, it will not provide any appreciable cooling that a CNC MUST HAVE.... Just say'in.... To help the arc start to travel up the blade, the use of a STRONG, circular magnet at the base of the blades, WILL help push the arc. I added a small magnet at the base of my home=brew Jacobs Ladder and it works like a champ....

    I use those same transformers with small zvs drivers I build to run on 12 volts and they can produce thick arcs 15-20 mm long with the higher zvs current. I bet if you change out your driver board the results will be even more impressive.

    So I said as much in the comments for Integza's recent video "This knife will change jet engines forever. But combing this sort of tech with the kind of metal 3d printing he was showcasing in that video seemed like a natural combination to me, and might allow for the creation of a plasma sword. I would also lean towards a belt mounted power pack similar to the StarWars Proto-Sabers.

    I'm not reminded of an Energy Sword from Halo but what I AM reminded of is a V'orrn Shock Sword from Eric Ban Lustbader's Pearl Saga. These were weapons that were just as fascinating if more obscure but essentially were described more or less like this: a pair of cutting blades with a plasma channel down the center. The difference was that the plasma arc travelled down the blade laterally like the discharge of a Jacob's Ladder rather than horizontally. That was my first thought: He's created a Shock Sword.

    Well, the first thing I'd do is add a grip of some sort. Yeah, it looks cool; but it can potentially slip out of your hand. So, I'm thinking that it can look similar to that of a light saber handle with the button at the end just exposed enough to push it in and out. Along with a threaded cap for it, and a custom hilt to cover the fan. Hope this helps
