Changing the oil in a car engine is one of the dirtiest jobs. Judge for yourself - when dirty mining is drained from an engine warmed up to 80-90 degrees, its hot jet gets anywhere, but not into the container substituted for it. Meanwhile, it is enough to make a simple device, and working out all to the drop will be in the canister intended for it.

In the simplest case, such a device will require a rubber hose, a standard hexagon wrench in the crankcase plug and a plastic 4-liter canister. At one end, the hose is fixed in the neck of the canister, in the upper part of which it is necessary to cut a pair of drainage holes. A hole is made at the other end of the hose with a punch - its diameter should be such that the key is inserted into it with some effort.

Easy engine oil change

To drain the oil using this tool, first unscrew the crankcase plug one or two turns, and then cover it with a cut of the hose (the key will fall into the plug hole). While pressing the end of the hose against the crankcase with one hand, continue to unscrew the plug with the other hand until the oil flows through the hose into the canister.

A somewhat more complicated, but also more convenient device, in which a tip from a plunger is fixed in the upper part of the hose. It is only necessary to make through holes in the tip - for the hose fitting and for the hex key.

Energy from space for Starship 08.05.2024

Producing solar energy in space is becoming more feasible with the advent of new technologies and the development of space programs. The head of the startup Virtus Solis shared his vision of using SpaceX's Starship to create orbital power plants capable of powering the Earth. Startup Virtus Solis has unveiled an ambitious project to create orbital power plants using SpaceX's Starship. This idea could significantly change the field of solar energy production, making it more accessible and cheaper. The core of the startup's plan is to reduce the cost of launching satellites into space using Starship. This technological breakthrough is expected to make solar energy production in space more competitive with traditional energy sources. Virtual Solis plans to build large photovoltaic panels in orbit, using Starship to deliver the necessary equipment. However, one of the key challenges ... >>

New method for creating powerful batteries 08.05.2024

With the development of technology and the expanding use of electronics, the issue of creating efficient and safe energy sources is becoming increasingly urgent. Researchers at the University of Queensland have unveiled a new approach to creating high-power zinc-based batteries that could change the landscape of the energy industry. One of the main problems with traditional water-based rechargeable batteries was their low voltage, which limited their use in modern devices. But thanks to a new method developed by scientists, this drawback has been successfully overcome. As part of their research, scientists turned to a special organic compound - catechol. It turned out to be an important component that can improve battery stability and increase its efficiency. This approach has led to a significant increase in the voltage of zinc-ion batteries, making them more competitive. According to scientists, such batteries have several advantages. They have b ... >>

Alcohol content of warm beer 07.05.2024

Beer, as one of the most common alcoholic drinks, has its own unique taste, which can change depending on the temperature of consumption. A new study by an international team of scientists has found that beer temperature has a significant impact on the perception of alcoholic taste. The study, led by materials scientist Lei Jiang, found that at different temperatures, ethanol and water molecules form different types of clusters, which affects the perception of alcoholic taste. At low temperatures, more pyramid-like clusters form, which reduces the pungency of the "ethanol" taste and makes the drink taste less alcoholic. On the contrary, as the temperature increases, the clusters become more chain-like, resulting in a more pronounced alcoholic taste. This explains why the taste of some alcoholic drinks, such as baijiu, can change depending on temperature. The data obtained opens up new prospects for beverage manufacturers, ... >>

Simple greenhouse gas sensor 30.07.2020

Researchers from the Case Studies Department at Linköping University have developed a simple greenhouse gas flux recorder.

Until now, measuring instruments have been so expensive that society has had to rely on crude models to map greenhouse gas emissions. It is extremely important that scientists and enthusiasts be able to take as many measurements as possible at different locations. This will help to check if emission reduction measures really work. The scientists hope that their simple and cost-effective recorder could enable more of these measurements.

Methane, CH4, is one of the most important long-lived greenhouse gases that contributes significantly to global warming. Since the 1750s, its relative increase in the atmosphere has been greater than for other greenhouse gases. There are many different sources and examples, including incomplete combustion, natural gas and biogas processing, and microbial production in agriculture, wetlands, and lakes.

However, the large number of sources, which can vary greatly in ways that are not fully understood, makes it difficult to quantify gas flows. This further hinders the development of new strategies to reduce flows. In addition, the discovery that lakes, rivers and flooded forests are major sources of methane, by David Bastwiken and colleagues back in 2011 and later, shows that scientists do not know all sources of greenhouse gases.

The scientists built and tested a simple recorder based on the open source Arduino hardware. Parts are available at many electronics stores; they can be ordered online for about 200 euros. Scientists have also developed more accurate ways to calibrate the methane sensor. This will allow greenhouse gas fluxes to be measured at very low cost.
