INSTANTANEOUS SOLAR WATER HEATER HOT WATER
This video was shot on a cold Florida Day. 46F. The water was 56F. and reached a source temperature of 135F. After the 2 feet drop and outdoor leaching the collecting temperature was 97F. The purpose of this video is to illustrate how a fine mist can create some instant steam and hot water. If the flow was .25 of this, solid steam would result. Too fine of a stream and the Leidenfrost Effect would prevent proper absorption. I will do a video illustrating the effect soon. This is an alternative idea for more efficient steam production. You gain the small SPI of the hose and flash steam volume. This would need to be modified to do that. Video on that soon too I hope:-)

You have a very nice camera. I have watched most of your videos. I found a couple of fresnel lenses to goof with and nearly burnt my eyes out from looking at the bright light while burning ants. (Vaporizing ants) It was better than any magnifying lens I have ever used… Good times for sure.
Do you have plans on scaling this up if so how? What are your plans for storage for evening uses ie showers or baths? Cool I’m always looking for some new ideas. Thanks
first clip I’ve seen on Youtube that has acceptable music. Great slo mo what camera did you use?
I imagine you had this setup just to demo the principle it could be a closed system and actually supply water to a home/business
What is your point?? Yes copper is a great conductor with the suns heat, you warmed up a glass of water…….try running you house on this….
Well don video. Green is the way to go.
Fascinating!
I’m just wondering what the practical application of this would be. Obviously you get much faster water heating that something like a solar panel water heater, but you’re limited by the tracking of the sun, as I presume this device has a rather narrow focal angle?
cool project!
by seeing this clip make my mind relax the way water flows and really nice clips i am new here.. gonna see more clips about solar coz i wanted to have one too… maybe i can learn some thing from here thx for sharing..
I like the morse code at the end
You know, your videos are pretty cool and all. But that loud Morse code type beeping at the end is annoying and almost makes me not want to watch any more.
I’m not hating, just giving some constructive criticism.
I liked the background music without the voice. It was informative and fun to watch at the same time.

Thank you:-)
The video, the music, the invention, all is beaultiful !
Yeah, but so is watching a sunset or going to an art museum.
Why should information be presented in a way devoid of art? Balance is the only truth. If Da Vinci never mixed science with his art then where would we be today? If Einstein never let his creativity run wild would he have been half the scientist he became?Its like chocolate and peanut butter.Both are good by themselves,but together they make Reeces Penut Butter cups!! Ok so the last example was a bit lameLOL! The others worked though!

can you tell me what music u are used for this video
the artist atleast 
but they are beautyfull
lol the miror look convex cuz of the camera effect
hey that is great. thanks
ok but isn;t is inconvenient to be moving the mirror to follow the sun?
Some good information but the slow motion scenes are needless.
Belle video artistique avec son generique de fin en Morse !
buy her roses with the money saved on hot water bill, she wont laguh at you again.
Very artistic presentation!!
No but you can reverse heat it.
