In this video we put the solar scorcher to the test, to see if it will melt metal. In this solar scorcher experiment, Grant Thompson takes metals to the TKOR solar scorcher. Grant wanted to test the limits of which metals he could manipulate with the TKOR solar beam and if sunlight would melt metal. What do you think will happen? The steps Grant Thompson covers for using a solar scorcher are super easy.
This TKOR solar scorcher project is also great for those wanting to know how to make other cool things: fresnel lens, solar scorcher project, giant magnifying glass, solar furnace, solar death ray, weld the sun, how to weld metal with the sun, welding with magnifying glass, random experiments, cool science projects and more! Let us know what cool and amazing magnifying experiments you create!
If you’re looking to try something new or for an activity such as: DIY solar beam, DIY solar scorcher, magnifying glass projects, cool science experiments, fun weekend project, or just a fun project with the family, watch the video to learn more.

@EFG_DuCkstersLab 7 лет назад

What would happen if you added some other lenses to the solar scorcher on the "laser side" of the lens? Could you make a more focused beam? Would it be more powerful? Could it melt more things or the same things faster? Other things that you could tinker with that involve this idea: Where is the best point to place the other lenses? Would putting them on the sun side make a difference? I feel I have to say, I think that I know how this would turn out but could be REALLY fun to try and experiment with.

@MoHaGames205 7 лет назад

Ian DuChene Nice idea

@EFG_DuCkstersLab 7 лет назад

Sure, but the precision may result in faster melt times. I understand the physics of it hence my statement, "I feel I have to say, I think that I know how this would turn out..." but I do also think it would still be cool to see.

@kvineet631 7 лет назад

Ian DuChene nah, i don't think more lenses are gonna get it more concentrated as its already making a point. what i think would help will be multiple lenses capturing more sun, if he can place them side by side and somehow concentrate them all at it, it may work.

@keters159 7 лет назад

But, putting multiple lenses on the sun side (not stacked but all around) would bring in more energy no? like a concentrated solar plant which uses mirrors?

@drizzitdude 7 лет назад

This part is true, for instance if he created a mini array of panels like that each one would have its own energy being absorbed and its own focal point. However keep in mind there is optimal positioning for this sort of thing, ideally it would be elevated more so more lenses could draw more sunlight from the best angle possible

@teaartist6455 7 лет назад

No, most of the world uses Celsius, it's taught at american schools (Fahrenheit is mentioned once or twice where I went to school but nothing more and I think it's much the same in most other places) and it's what is used in science so, if anything, they could be in fahrenheit on screen or in the subtitles. Plus it gives you a taste of what it's like to constantly have to convert measurements from documentaries and informational videos. It's a thing that's a constant annoyance for anyone not living in america so if we manage to do it for pretty much everything you can probably survive it if it's just in a few videos of some channels.

@yournuubgod 7 лет назад

Well doesn't it separate when you spin it around in one of those things? I forget their names but ya. I feel like this would create a different result because the force of the spinning is pulling the different stuff apart, but with the vacuum chamber you are straight up removing the air. I wonder if it would make the blood get thicker/thinner etc? I think it could be interesting and would love to see more likes to see it happen! Haha

@Jordad 7 лет назад

Hey! I'm not sure if it's the exposure of the camera, but the beam of light at the focal point looks around 1-2 inches in diameter. You should try to take a magnifying glass from that, and try to focus the beam even more. Something even smaller and more concentrated! That would be awesome to see what you could melt with that!

@whynot5027 7 лет назад

The rays can only hit on one spot all together. It is not possible to focus it even more :) Maybe direct the rays into the focuspoint with different angles, but it would not get more concertrated or even hotter

@samverleye8039 7 лет назад

so you can't like put an extra magnifying glass in front of the focal point so the beam is more accurate?

@trippymccube8735 7 лет назад

thats not how it works you need a bigger scorcher or a big mirror reflecting on the scorcher

@Jordad 7 лет назад

Sam Verleye if he focal point of that big lens he is using is 1-2 inches in diameter, you should be able to use a more precise and smaller lens to focus it even more, but I'm not 100% sure. I'd love to see someone try it

@samverleye8039 7 лет назад

I know you can't focus a focal point but like get the beams that were already there and just making it better idk sounds legit anyway

@TXFDA 6 лет назад

@andrewevenson7798 7 лет назад

So, dark colors will absorb more heat than other colors. Can you build a black container to melt the metals in? I'm sure your losing a ton of potential heat because the shiny metals are reflecting the heat. Create a black heat resistant container to hold the metal in, and heat up the container.

@trent5807 7 лет назад

A black, heat-resistant container would keep a lot more of the energy for itself. I think he's better off doing what he's doing.

@fact-o-logy7665 7 лет назад

Andrew Evenson No. He shouldn't do it because if the container is black, then it will absorb the heat which will lead to less heat in the container. When the inner surface is shiny it reflects the heat, causing conservation of heat energy. And, Your Welcome !!!

@TheCaptainNick 7 лет назад

I think that you should see what the upper limit is of how hot you can get something using the sun's light. For example,you could try doing the same thing, but with mirrors pointing into the solar scorcher to have more light going into it. You could also use a black painted muffin tray to absorb more heat energy. I would like to see a sequel, because this is a very interesting episode.

@ExperimentalFun 7 лет назад

The light has no temperature, heat is only produce if the light is absorbed by a non-reflective materiel and the potential momentum energy of the photon being absorbed creates heat, so the more reflective the metal is then the less it will heat up. If he used a gallium mirror which melts at a temperature of 85.58°F/29.76°C and he placed it in the light beam it would reflect most of the light and likely wouldn't melt. for the aluminum to melt you would need to reduce the reflectivity of the metal.

Keep in mind, light Energy emissions are proportional to the fourth power of the absolute temperature. That is why you must enclose your higher melting metals in a black box oven. Try these experiments. You will have success.

@stevelindsay3643 2 года назад

You can reach temperatures around 3000 degrees Fahrenheit if you get the lens focused properly. It can easily melt steel. You have to get the right density of the focal point. If you get it focused inside a crucible you have a solar foundry.

@misterman3187 7 лет назад

Brandon Ali if he used glass with a higher melting point, yes, it would concentrate the heat further. that would probably make the focal point similar to a laser

@jasonhardman1770 3 года назад

Oldie but a goodie. I made the solar scorcher five years ago and was able to melt pennies and put spots of "glass" in a brick. Most interesting of all was trying to melt the platter of a disassembled harddrive. It didn't even get hot! If you've never seen the platter of a harddrive, it's made of glass, aluminum or ceramic and coated with some magnetic material and coated with carbon. It's also polished and highly reflective. It didn't even get hot, and I'm wondering if it's simply reflecting the energy away - it is light, after all. I'm wondering if that's why Grant's metal isn't melting like he expects. Is the metal reflecting enough of the energy away, preventing it from getting hot enough?

You should mess around with ice with the solar scorcher. Giant ice blocks or little ice cubes. That would be super fun to watch!

@s.moorefilms3760 7 лет назад

you should try magnifying the beam of the scortcher with a magnifying glass you could probably get the beam really focused

@mrchordstriker 7 лет назад

@s.moorefilms3760 7 лет назад

kind of. more like looking at the sun with a telescope.

@andrewdailey9646 7 лет назад

Try putting a mirror in front of a laser or the solar scorcher - will it melt or not?

@jeppeguldberg2967 7 лет назад

Andrew Dailey This is great

@MasterMayhem78 7 лет назад

Andrew Dailey Mirrors reflect. They are commonly used with lasers to redirect the beam.

@nicholassontag4312 7 лет назад

Ultimo D at a certain point, even lasers will cut through mirrors.

i appreciate you for using celcius. can you verify that video that living fish remains alive after dipping in liquid nitrogen ?? love your videos Grant brother

@jonpon240 7 лет назад

siddharth sahu I think the fish would be alive, but the brain cells would die. Either that or the fish just dies

@siddharthsahu7123 7 лет назад

TheDiamondBattleAxe may be but in that video fish started to swim normally and i believe to swim fish need a living brain.

@jacobgomez5608 7 лет назад

Can you try to melt stones to make DIY lava

@TheRolemodel1337 7 лет назад

wont happen since it requires 700-1300°C depending on the rocks used

@moki2093 7 лет назад

TheRolemodel1337 although he has melted obsidian

@gogo311 7 лет назад

He could make salt lava then

@brenenfisher9324 7 лет назад

He has like 3 years ago in his arc furnace

@luuk777w 7 лет назад

He has already done that

@adiadi5948 6 лет назад

Try using a graphite crucible, the reflective aluminium is reflecting a lot of the thermal energy, the dark crucible will absorb a lot of heat and also insulate the reaction so you will melt aluminium quicker.

@jacobopstad5483 6 лет назад

Aluminum is a thermal conductor so it will dissipate the heat. Maybe if you tried it in arc furnace brick to further concentrate the heat, it might work.

@andresbaez1009 7 лет назад

Aim the solar scorcher at a solar panel and see if it increases the amount of energy produced.!.⚠️⚠️⚠️⚠️⚠️⚠️⚠️

@mrsial05 7 лет назад

Itll ruin the solar panel

@GoblinKnightLeo 7 лет назад

It would increase the energy produced because you're focusing more sunlight on the panel - but it would also heat up faster.

@emiraces 6 лет назад

Definitely liking the use of Celsius. Never understood and will understand Fahrenheit.

@HowlsInTheDistance 7 лет назад

You're probably losing a lot of heat because of how reflective all of these metals are. Maybe try some sort of heat-resistant black container or coating?

@florianfranz8931 7 лет назад

You should try adding more smaller lenses to the solar scorcher, from biggest to smallest to focus the beam even more.

@slapdatslime2615 7 лет назад

Can you bounce the solar scorcher beam of a mirror?

@simloverify 7 лет назад

SlapDatSlime or burn something in a glass vacuum chamber

@alexricewakeboader5692 7 лет назад

SlapDatSlime it might melt the in side because the reflective part is metal

@alexricewakeboader5692 7 лет назад

@user-ts9tz9og4q 7 лет назад

@Jackson-mm3qb 7 лет назад

Why don’t you try to melt sand in each furnace you have and see which one works the best to make glass. Even though since sand has many impurities, the glass will look very cloudy.

@thecodster9112 7 лет назад

Jackson Graham did u get that from minecraft

@Jackson-mm3qb 7 лет назад

The Codster and what do people made of blocks have anything to do with smelting glass?

@Jackson-mm3qb 7 лет назад

Wondering if you could also use 3 lenses, the second and third lenses could refract light but make it more focused..... And the other materials could create some gases that make you lightheaded don’t use tempered glass kids

@ronfish8375 7 лет назад

place another magnifying glass in the focal point focusing to a much smaller area, like laser beam status. then try to melt some incredibly high melting point items like inconel x.
