    Optimizing Hydrogen Combustion Catalysts for Efficient Stove Design

    I am interested in build a hydrogen stove for cooking and wish to use a catalytic stove. I cannot find much information about this anywhere, but only that nickel can be used for hydrogen rather than platinum. 1) Can I just use stainless scotch brite scrub pad as catalyst assuming it...

    What Is the Optimal Twist for 3D Printed Micro Wind Turbine Blades?

    I was never using constant angle because this is obviously not going to work well, but I was using a constant twist by twisting linearly which worked pretty well but is not optimal. Now I have done it piecewise and use the twist angle of atan(1/(tsr*x)) where x is from 0 at hub to 1 at tip...

    What Is the Optimal Twist for 3D Printed Micro Wind Turbine Blades?

    I am 3d printing micro wind turbine blades (5-10 watts output in 30mph wind), but anyway I am using naca foil shape twisted to make it. This is not technically a propeller (cannot be efficiently used to push air) because it is generating power from moving air: it is a repeller, but regardless...
