Sectioned 4-cylinder engine - rpm

Engine cut in half to observe the mechanical movement. To facilitate the mechanical effort of the motor, an induction electric motor has been added, driven by an inverter.
The camcorder, due to the high rotation speed of the moving parts, is not able to capture all the frames, therefore the vision is distorted.

Seeing this really makes me wonder how we don't see more people throwing rods after knowing how neglectful they are with their maintenance.

Truly a marvel and gift to humanity that we use these cars everyday and travel thousands of miles without any headaches. The mechanical, electrical, tires, brakes, etc etc. We truly are a blessed generation in this regard!

The years these engines go through this and more is honestly amazing.

Thanks!

Really neat to see a real demonstration rather than one of those animated videos!

[MageDubs]

The fact that the engine reached 1000 RPM really felt like a car idling.

I'd like see a timing light on this display turned on and off different times..long live the marvelous marvel of the internal combustion engine, the engine that has driven the world to amazing heights at amazing speeds, with amazing results! We owe every achievement of modern life to this machine!

Excellent video... Best sectional engineering cut through I've ever seen... Total respect guys....

That complex system and all it needs is just timely maintenance of oil change. Thank you engineers!

[Almighty_cornholio]

Amazing that the engine is working that hard and all it takes is regular maintenance to keep it going

[Loxomotiva]

I can't imagine what happens in an F1 engine that reaches up to 15, 000 revolutions per minute.

Просто прелесть ! Наиболее наглядное пособие для учеников. Да и для водителей...

[KeystoneScience]

Not sure how I missed this one, this is an awesome video! Great work!!

[MIKO_MDG]

Cool as HELL!!! I always try to visualize the internals when I hear hi-perf engines. Whether it's an inline 4 or a V-twin, when a 4-stroke is idling @ 1k, I keep in mind that for every 'BANG' I hear, the piston and crank moves/turns twice. It's AMAZING to me how fast everything spin, even @ relatively low RPM's. And as already mentioned, the reliability is miraculous, given the crazy loads and forces generated.

It blows my mind that the intake and exhaust valve keep up so flawlessly

[AlbertDongler]

Wow! This just shows just how amazing it is that an engine works at all! Excellent demonstration, thank you! :-)

[MasterPeaches]

This demostration just blew my mind. It is absolutely amazing what engineering has brought us and the life span of engines (especially when properly maintained).

Can someone explain to me the lights when the cylinder things hit smack the recieving part of the engine?

[gilberto]

Que coisa incrível, difícil acreditar que conseguem trabalhar a essa velocidade. E na verdade os motores vão além disso. É realmente fantástico.

[JohanFerreiraKPSZAR]

Wow must say the sound is hypnotizing. Well done, it is beautiful work of art👍🏻

[schoolofgreatness]

I drive@ 1500 RPM, its amazed to think crankshaft @25 RPS and piston moving up and down 12 times in seconds😢, man these pistons hard working to make us happy

[andrewclarke]

My head is reeling at the idea that almost every car I see has this happening but faster

[leodavis]

To be completely honest, I'm doing my driving lessons currently, and obviously I know that engines can do several thousand revs per minute, but seeing ~1750rpm is mental. That's the approximate rpm you set the accelerator to before moving off, and I didn't think it was quite THAT fast. This was really interesting to watch, and I'll definitely be showing my parents this, because I think, like me before today, they've never actually seen what, say... 3000rpm looks like
