This is such a cool experiment. I've always wondered what would happen

ilove it!

Could the difference be due to burning it in AIR with all that nitrogen versus injecting pure O2?

TBH the last 30s of the video were the most interesting. Maybe you could build some gas discharge tubes, or recreate the classic Crookes experiments.

really cool question , nice demonstration I think more variations and controls are in order , flame shaping theory is fascinating I would really love to see some basic as well as advanced porting ideas explored in burners.

I wonder if it would work differently if you used mixed the chamber 70% nitrogen and 30% methane. Just to make it the inverse of the atmosphere and presumably closer to the standard stoichiometric mix.

I like this alot! Thanks for for this great experiment!

Perhaps one could fly around on titan using a reverse jet engine.

Really good to see another video of something I’ve never seen before. Keep up the awesome work!

Thanks cody! You've just answered a question that's been buried in my brain since high-school (20 years ago!) my chem teacher refused to let us do the experiment on the grounds of safety! I ask, what could go wrong! (an educational question in itself).

Will oxygen bubbles burn under liquid hydrocarbon

No way I would touch this experiment with a 10 m cattle prod so glad you did it. The result is NOT what I expected - I’m pretty shocked that it worked at all! I was so sure the stoichiometry would be nowhere near what a normal flame would have.

Cody, how do you generate those sparks? Did you build your own device?

All you need is a NST (neon sign transformer). It puts out high voltage (usually 5-10kV) at a few miliamps. I regularly use such discharges in air as a source of EMI (electromagnetic interference) to check the quality of RF shielding on devices.

Really nice and well made setup!

High voltage in a vacuum looks cool. Radiation present?

Not likely. A few miliamps at 5kV should only generate very little soft Xrays. I use a similar setup (see reply above) and a Geiger counter using a very large and sensitive tube barely registers anything above background.
