In this video I play with a fire driven Rijke tube and try to get some interesting slow motion shots. I've decided not to charge patrons for this video since it was fairly low effort and the second video this month.

Fire Driven Sound Waves in a Quartz Tube

In this video I take a break from the heavy technical side of thermoacoustics to play with a giant propane powered singing tube. This is also called a Rijke tube, and you can find another great video explaining how they work from Bruce Yeany here: https://youtu.be/hMf8Rn4bdME Also check out the other videos so far in my thermoacoustic series: Part one, thermoacoustic engines: https://youtu.be/abswNCqnMRQ Part two, thermoacoustic refrigeration: https://youtu.be/kkBBkQ8jFRY A special thanks to my top Patrons: LVE, Enzo Breda Lee, Jon Hartmann, TheBackyardScientist & Eugene Pakhomov!
