Napier Deltic spawn engine with Cgears

Postby Gent » Sat Sep 26, 2009 6:21 am

Hi all, this is a new version of my Deltic engine.
Credits to Conundrumer and Kilinch for the gears.
The engine is fully throttleable, instructions in the scene.
Any help or sugestions on how to improve this will be appreciated.
I'm working on a new version in Algodoo, the grid is VERY helpfull.

Hi all, Drum Roll Please
My algodoo version of the Deltic is finaly ready to show.
I'm not sure why it doesnt make much power?
Any suggestions on improvements would be appreciated ;)

That looks epicly cool, I think it does not make much power because of gear ratio? that's usually the problem... otherwise its cool, and with what you have in the scene im headed to rate it 10, since its so cool, and has such a sweet speed, without bugging.

Hi minyman60 and all, thanks for the nice comment! I have found that if you increase the sim.frequency
it makes a lot more power and is even more reliable at the expense of severe lag :( At 200hz it will top
out in exess of 300 rpm and pull a 10nm load at 200 rpm+. I know the thing is complex and realy strains
the physics to keep up with it but thats part of the beauty of it :lol:
