Shared On YouMagine – Stirling Engine by Alain Ducros

Stirling Engine by Alain Ducro

Alain Ducros has been sharing a couple of approaches to 3D printed Stirling Engines (check out his “Kit 1” version here) and this one is handy in that it can easily be dimensioned to suit the food containers that you select for the boiler cylinder.

Shared On YouMagine – Stirling Engine by Alain Ducros:

“Engine Stirling Gamma – KIT2 – The presented kit allows one to create a playful Stirling Engine in the spirit of a Lego construction set — working from printed parts, recycling classic food boxes, and a few off-the-shelf components….”

Shared On YouMagine – Conservation of energy / Circular motion by Keller Andre

Conservation of energy Circular motion by Keller Andre

Keller Andre from Switzerland has been sharing a series of interesting 3D printed physics experiments for students. The way they are produced and how they can be presented make them tangible, physical “infographics” as well, each constituent part clearly enough to also inspire ways to adapt the components to explore other fundamental principles of physics.

Shared On YouMagine – Conservation of energy / Circular motion by Keller Andre:

Task: Calculate the angle Phi, wherein the mass m2 just raises the mass m1. 1.) m1 = 200 g, m2 = 100g 2.) m1 = 300 g, m2 = 100g Solution: At a ratio of 2: 1 it is at 60 °, at 3: 1, it is at 90 ° The calculation is quite demanding for the students and can be checked on the model….
