I *think* this will be the final version of this video that will go live in a few hours, so here's early access for Patrons. If I end up having to upload a different copy before the video goes live I apologize in advance if your early comments get deleted. Either way I hope you enjoy having the first look at the video! Thanks for your support

Acoustic Energy & Surprising Ways To Harness It (Intro To Thermoacoustics)

Here I introduce a series of experiments culminating in how to make a thermoacoustic engine. Check out my sponsor Brilliant for a great way to keep your mind sharp and learn something new: https://www.brilliant.org/nighthawk Below are some sources I found helpful in my research for this video: BladeAtilla was very helpful in troubleshooting issues with the thermoacoustic engine design: https://www.youtube.com/user/bladeattila Wiki on thermoacoustics: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thermoacoustic_heat_engine Wiki on acoustic resonance (great animations for understanding sound waves): https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Acoustic_resonance Modeling a driven thermoacoustic oscillator: https://sites.google.com/a/umn.edu/mxp/student-projects/2017_spring/s17_thermoacousticlaser Various experiments with a standing wave engine: https://labs.wsu.edu/matveev/acoustics/ In depth study on a thermoacoustic refrigerator: https://www.researchgate.net/publication/318648198_Study_on_A_Standing_Wave_Thermo_acoustic_Refrigerator_Made_of_Readily_Available_Materials A special thanks to my top Patrons: LVE, Enzo Breda Lee, Jon Hartmann, TheBackyardScientist & Eugene Pakhomov!
