1997 movie *The Edge* Charles Morse/Anthony Hopkins : “Did you know that you can make fire from ice?” (Anthony Hopkins makes a lens out of ice and uses it as a magnifying glass.) Well, now I know how to make fire from ice and now steam as well. Two ways of getting fire from water. Of course electrolysis can make hydrogen. But that’s not as cool. 😎 Good video my man 👍

The induction idea is pretty good. Don't set your turbine on fire!

The homemade induction cooktop turns out to be real useful for making steam. Never thought I would use it for this process.

That’s gotta be dangerous as hell

Excellent content as always 😎👍👍

Wow i didn't know that .Thanks for sharing with us !

Superheated steam is a monster. Most people don’t understand what it is or how dangerous it is.

Yeah my science teacher actually taught that the steam age engineers wouldn't consider what most people refer to as steam to be steam rather its water vapour, steam is actually super heated water vapour as demonstrated here ... he said basically if you can see it then it technically isn't steam, its water vapour

Great video idea. I'm new but I love your work ❤

Would have been better if those objects where held 1-2 inches away from the copper pipe to avoid its contact. Looks like d/t the contact made with copper… thing’s went right

super heated steam is what ships boilers produce........in WW2, the US Navy was running 450psi of super heated steam pressure.

@@BrianDhvTinkerer scariest thing I have read about is the nuclear powered scramjet engine for Project Pluto. At Mach 3.5 and tree top height above the ground, the air coming into the engine was already at 1000C and passed through the fuel rods and heated to 3000C, making equivalent 250,000hp . Amazingly they tested the full sized engine at full power for 20 minutes.......using days of preparation and 53 miles of large diameter oil pipe casing to store the compressed air, that passed a series of heated steel silos to reach the 1000C temps needed to simulate actual flight conditions. Pluto was designed as an armored heavy cruise missile, that was impossible to shoot down, and could almost single handed destroy the USSR with a magazine of 12 heavy multi-megaton H-bombs.

@@BrianDhvTinkerer They got to the stage of testing the engine in the air frame and had discussions about putting it on a large tether. There was also the problem of the engine discharging large amounts of radioactive fallout in flight........and that the supersonic shock wave would have killed people on the ground. Everyone breathed a sigh of relief when the ballistic missiles (rockets) became reliable and established as the preferred nuclear weapon delivery system. Its is a truly amazing engineering story.

Suggestions: Stick a thin wire, type K thermocouple right at the tip to measure temp. Some low cost Chinese multimeters can measure type K thermocouples. Probably a meat thermometer with a small diameter tip would also work. See if the superheated steam can melt eutectic lead-tin wire solder. Insulate the discharge lead with loose fiberglass or refractory fiber to prevent energy loss.

looks like it's not the steam but the super heated copper pipe that ignites the match as well as burns the paper.. well at least how it looks to me

It is the steam. You just cannot see the steam as it has been super heated. It turns into dry steam AKA 100% water vapor. It can reach temperatures over 1000°

@T2D.SteveArcs

GOOGLE, question: "is steam visible" Answer: Steam is produced due to evaporation or as a result of boiling. Saturated or superheated steam is invisible, but often 'wet steam' is visible due to liquid water droplets forming as water vapour condenses. Steam can be seen
