Thermo Accoustics, the science of hot tunes.

Ah! Even without part two I can see how this can be used for cooling! Awesome video! To get power out of the coil you should try smaller wire, more turns, and an iron core. Or maybe go bigger with the design. 😉

I highschool over 20 years ago, I found this out using a 6 ft cardboard tube and a bunsen burner. It was so loud the windows vibrated, and was heard through the entire school. Sounded like a fog horn. And thus ended our "free period" in advanced chemistry class

Super cool! They also use sound waves to cool the camera sensors in the James Webb telescope.

Really nice demo! Looking forward to the refrigerator!

Not gonna lie, when I saw "thermoaccoustics" I was hoping there was going to be a saxophone flamethrower

I generally hate "sponsor ads" in the middle of videos. This is an exception. I love the way you introduce them and I empathise with your reasons for liking them. Some people can suck up a formula and regurgitate it. They'll go far in their careers. Some folk Can't. BUT with the right teacher, they'll see the "THE WAY" is not necessarily the only way. Those people will go wherever they wish. I love your videos. You educate on my level and I'm a Chartered Engineer with a Master's Degree!

If your looking for a decent voltage from your magnet, you'll need to use much smaller wire, so you can have more turns. Also try not to let the thickness of your coil exceed the thickness of your magnet. Lastly, keep in mind that when one magnetic pole travels in two directions rapidly, the energy produced from any coil around it will be alternating current, which you would need to build a bridge rectifier for if you want DC current for running led lights. A small capacitor hitched to the positive end of the rectifier would also help, as it smooths out the pulsations in the wavelength.

Interesting!  I read somewhere they installed special clay vessels filled with mercury into a castle's air ducts to create occasional "ghost" sounds when the air was quickly cooling or heating...

Your presentation skills are spot-on. "This is the phenomenon we're talking about. It works roughly like such and such." demonstration of what you just talked about "Building on that, we can use that phenomenon to do cool things." demonstration of the cool thing Thanks for teaching me something neat today!

I've never seen a video from you that would have been boring. Your style of narration, your own fascination on the topics, your way of showing the working principles in detail without giving me the feeling that I'm a dummie. You are in the list of my absolute favourite content creators, each one for their niche. Keep up the good work 👍👍👍

Seen many Youtubers explain a lot of stuff. You're currently in my top 3 best teachers of science in Youtube. You make learning fun, easy to understand without jargon. Simply amazing work. The world is a better place with you on it for sure 💯😎👍

This man is a wizard.

When you turn the tube sideways, it looks and sounds like you're pouring a big glass of disappointment.

I woke up this morning and learned something totally new. Never heard of thermo acoustics in physics or engineering classes at uni (NZ) but there it is on YouTube. Thanks and I hope you realise that you are really good at this teaching stuff.

Why did I not have a teacher such as yourself when I was at school… Amazing! Please keep up the great work

Who cares about actually generating electricity, I have never seen such a good looking engine

Holding a bird so people will watch the sponsored part is more brilliant than the sponsor

Wow...you are a WONDERFUL teacher! Not only do you get the information across succinctly but you also make it simple enough for those of us who are not mechanically inclined. Thank you! 💗
