Zastanawialismy się kiedys na tym forum, jak pierwotni mieszkancy Azji
wykonywali termodynamiczny aparat, czyli 'fire piston'.
Teraz juz bedziemy wiedziec, bo na filmie to widać.
Okazuje sie, ze zreczne rece Malajczyka, tylko przy pomocy maczety i
wkretaka tworza to cudo pierwotnej techniki,
ktore zainspirowalo wynalazce silnika wysokopreznego :)

Tekst pod filmem:
''Jamri, a native Semelai, demonstrates the lost art of firepiston
construction.
The firepiston creates fire by rapidly compressing a column of air, and
thereby sufficiently increasing the temperature in the chamber to ignite the
tinder placed in the cup at the head of the piston. (In excess of 430
degrees C)

In the early 19th century European explorers began encountering the native
peoples of South East Asia and were astonished to see them utilizing a fire-
lighting device they could not comprehend.
In 1877 Carl Linde gave a lecture in Munich in which he demonstrated a
firepiston.
Rudolph Diesel was in attendance and this experience later stimulated him to
designing the diesel engine.
Unfortunately, amongst its original inventors the knowledge of its
construction and use is almost totally lost, replaced by the trappings of
the modern world.

The process took approximately 2 hours, the gasket is made from fibres
extracted from the bark of the Terap tree (Artocarpus Elasticus), the tinder
is extracted from palms such as the Fishtail palm (Caryota) in Malaysia or
the Apiang palm (Arenga undulatifolia) in Borneo. It is scraped from the
layers which surround the palms heart.

Filmed in Malaysia by BOD and Stuart. ''
