Science: Massive 2D Rubens Tube Of Over 2500 Holes Driven By Sound and Music

From the site:

Rubens’ Tube is an awesome demo and here we take it to the next level with a two-dimensional ‘Pyro Board’. This shows unique standing wave patters of sound in the box.

The pressure variations due to the sound waves affect the flow rate of flammable gas from the holes in the Pyro Board and therefore affect the height and colour of flames. This is interesting for visualizing standing wave patterns and simply awesome to watch when put to music. Thank you to Sune Nielsen and everyone at Aarhus for sharing this demonstration with me! And thanks for having me at your conference.

Music by Kevin MacLeod, www.Incompetech.com “Ice Flow”

 

Pretty sweet!

    you can make a lot of money with that. djs can use in a club and parties

    what is the name of the first song

    Music and fire!

  5. J GAMER X

    this is awesome

  6. David Alan Gilbert

    Very very nice 🙂

  7. Jonathan Pedersen-Bjergaard

    Yay, Denmark! I’m planning on studying physics in the future, so if you get
    here in 5 or so years I’ll be happy to help make a video 😀

    A group in my engineering projects class is making this

    i want this as a decorative piece outside, like high tech fire pit.

  11. Missa Jae

    This is way too cool. Fire is mesmerizing enough without it dancing to
    music!

    Go Denmark! (I live in Denmark)

    This is AWSOME .W.

    yoo check out my mixtape

  17. The 5th Ace

    LIKE FOR DENMARK :3

  18. DazmoTube

    ok so next obvious step is a big spinning rubens sphere . . . . or would
    that explode?

  19. shayneeb Gokool

    wowwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww ;D 😀 antinodes and nodes

    Nerd notes. At :41, aren’t the high-pressure places, corresponding to tall
    flames, the places where the velocity is smallest? What’s shown might be
    the opposite.

    The guy explaining it says that the flames are higher some places because
    of a higher velocity gas coming out, but this is the result of high
    pressure locations inside the tube, which corresponds (counterintuitively)
    to low-velocity locations along the tube.

    When your mixtape is fire

  22. orange vanim

    this is awesome XD would be cool in front of a dance floor left and right

  24. KingofRock943

    Yes, but can it djent?

  25. Chase Ramos

    song name?

  26. benjovi55

    My mind keep’s wanting to hear “Rubic’s Cube.”

  27. 이로아

    it use a gas?

  28. Viktor Hofer

    My fav soundtrack by Kevin MacLeod : Ice flow 😀 😀

  29. Raymond Lee

    i guess it would be the next gen speaker and fireplace. LOL

    Pyro Board — это необычное приспособление, работающее по принципу «трубы
    Рубенса». Через множество отверстий, на поверхность прибора поступает газ,
    а звуковые волны исходящие из динамика, повышают или понижают его давление.
    Благодаря этому получается невероятный эффект танцующего пламени.

  31. xInsanity

    You could say that mixtape was on FIRE!

  32. Browse My Gear

    Music + Fire = Awesome!

    *Watch what happens when they pump some music into the board, for science
    of course :-)*
    A Rubens’ tube (also known as a standing wave flame tube or flame tube) is
    a physics apparatus for demonstrating acoustic standing waves. Invented by
    German physicist Heinrich Rubens in 1905, it graphically shows the
    relationship between sound waves and sound pressure. But, this is taken to
    the next level!

    A fun way to make BBQ

    You guys don’t think thats how UFOs can detect if we’re in danger? Now
    let’s record the sound of the sun.

  36. Nick Lo Faso

    That guys mixtape us actually fire

  37. Sy Bernot

    100% this is going on my list of things to do, I wanna BBQ with one of
    these.

  38. Lexi Bartosiak

    I hate this thing because it gives me nightmares of it.

  39. Shaun Jones

    Song is Ice Flow by Kevin MacLeod for anyone that didn’t know the song name

    WoW! Cool I want one 🙂
