THANK YOU SO MUCH, I rewatched the tutorial and your basics on vacuum engines, and I got it running. The only thing is the throttle is odd in that it does not increase throttle when I give it more throttle. Any pointers in that?

Production quality is insane! You did a very good job explaining :)

Nailed it. I was pleased to see that the displacement calculation part at the end is on point.

Yes! I have you to thank for helping originally on how to calculate it.

i already built one of his models and it works so well

To find the displacement, I just fill up the cylinder with water and calculate the volume of it with a measuring cup, because 1ml=1cc

This is exactly what I needed

I’ve come up with an interesting concept for a vacuum engine that I want to try, and it seems logical but idk. My idea is to make a multi-stage vacuum engine, in that the used vacuum from the first cylinder is “recycled” to the next cylinder. My logic behind this is because you need the exhaust stroke, there is still some sort of vacuum left in the cylinder. This means, by my theory, you may still be able to use that second vacuum to make power. Now with my knowledge of steam engines, I propose you may need a larger cylinder to get the same effort from a smaller vacuum power. I need to make a rig to test this but if it works it I’ll be sick af

I built an engine similar to this one and its indestructable, I've run it at max rpm for like 5 mins and at idle for like 20 mins with no issues.

LVE’s can be fairly reliable if you build them right, so nice job!

To be honest the only lego vacuum engine I've ever made was a steam engine piston type design, it worked just fine, however, I truly never really properly designed a proper throttle body valve.

Silicone lubricant can also work! People use it all the time for modding LEGO pneumatic pistons

@KFPlusLegoMastery

2 жыл бұрын

Yes! I probably should’ve mentioned that in the video. The best type of lubricant is either silicone based or graphite based. I mentioned olive oil or veggie oil since those are much easier to access

Can you teach us how to build a vacuum engine, but with a supercharger? Making a system with gears for the supercharger to rotate more than the engine and thus be able to push air to the piston, making it go down faster and increasing its final rotation thx from Brazil!

Since we are working with vaccum, and not combustion. This would result in a net loss. You could only get energy out of the engine that you put into it via the vaccum. So it wouldn’t really be a supercharger. It would just be more friction

Ok, I have a vacuum engine that has been adjusted for 2 and a half months SPECIFICALLY for available part I own ,and I plan on adding a turbo, yes TURBO and I might record it… so be looking for it.😉

I am building one and was wondering if the vacuumed power changes anything?

I have made a I4 engine and it has a SOHC valve system i am going to lube it because it will improve performance

I am thinking of buying the parts for this but the vacuum part a simple vacuum cleaner which takes air in or out

do you need a two sized stroke engine? or is there a alternative? i dobt have one but me want make dis

im building my own engines and i have a few questions about vacuum enginges. So first things first, does the engine need to be free(without oilpan)? And i have trouble with building intakes. I Always loose the power of my vacuum in the intake.. Do you have tips for that`?

I have a question do you need the holes next to the valve

What kind of vacuum do you use?

my gf got me the ducati build for Xmas one year. I wonder if hooking some kind of intake (in this case vacuum) manifold up to it would have a similar effect 🤔 although idk how u could build valves into the cramped space.

i made an big I-4 Engine(without tutorial). I had a look at all rules, what you told me here and it didnt work. Well..is the cause probably the long way from the intake to the piston?

Does the vacuum need to blow out or suck in

My Piston blew up after lubricating it and running on full throttle cuz I hadn’t glued it I just reinforced it with more pieces lmao. I just glued it though, hopefully it won’t blow up Update: After making a belt chain from a very old lego Star Wars set. I’m attempting to make a centrifugal supercharger.

Olive Oil is the worst thing to use because it gets Sticky.

How do you make it run tho?…

It doesn’t necessarily require one, and it’s not going to hinder the performance whether or not you add one. It just gives you more control over the speed of the engine without having to move the vacuum nozzle up and down the intake port
