What happened to the Hindenburg?
Переглядів 8,809,965
День томуThe Hindenburg met it's fiery death in the 1937. This video show the inside of airship and then the events leading up to accident.
The Hindenburg is a largest airship ever built. Unfortunately it caught fire and was completely destroyed. There is still debate over what caused the accident. This video shows the inside of the Hindenburg: the A Deck and B Deck, the crew areas, control car, cargo areas, and engine cars alongside of the ship. The 16 gas cells held the ship up but were filled with hydrogen which is extremely flammable.
There are many myths surrounding the Hindenburg: www.airships.net/hindenburg/d...

@@AngelLestat2 ehh no, with helium the number of customers would be reduced but still would be rentable. maybe you are assuming that it would not be able to cross based in usa investigations and copy attempts, but these where a total failure and coudlnt even survive cross wind. also, von zeppelin was totally against nazi germany, but he had to get that swastika on his precious bird because usa didnt want to send HIM helium, this was because germany was the only country capable of cross the atlantic, not only passangers, but also with mail service, so it was a commercial block, nothing to do with nazi germany, that, before the war, was a potential ally to usa.

@@santiagoperez2094 I dont get your point. To fully understand mine I recommend you to read my answer on quora. When I said that if the hindenburg would not be able to keep the range it had even with zero payload (no cabins, no passengers, no bed, nothing), I am just taking into account common sense in airships operation. All the lift that is lost due 12% less buoyancy, plus the lift lost due to start with lower inflation because you can not vent helium because is expensive, not being able to counter all the weight lost of the fuel mass consumed meanwhile you are in travel or inject hydrogen into the engines to extend range and other helium drawbacks. Is not just a matter that "it would not be so rentable", it can not cross the ocean so it would not be rentable at all unless it would be used just for short range trips, but what is the point to travel on land? for that you used a car or something similar. At those times the benefic was the speed of airships vs ships. About cross winds not sure what you mean, Zeppelings (from the zeppeling brand), had a lot of experience and they was well constructed (mostly due the extra buoyancy margin you get with hydrogen that can be used for reinforcements), they were in many storms and no passenger die.
@santiagoperez2094 5 років тому
it isnt a plane, it doesnt consume fuel to generate lift. it didnt got in any storm, in fact its perfect score was also there thnx to its tripulants, search about them
@AngelLestat2 5 років тому
@@santiagoperez2094 I know everything about them.. they consume fuel to move... unless you are considering to be super lucky to have the wind with the direction and intensity to where you want to go :P They were in many storms.. some lighting hit on them (I am speaking of the last models of zeppelins) and they were ok. If you are gonna to discuss, try to make it with facts. Don't make me lose my time with internet trolling. I read several books over airships in different languages.

Makes me wonder, if we could make the hazards irrelevant when constructing an explosion and fire proof passenger cabin with todays materials (aerogel-coat for fireproofing, carbon fibre for the walls etc.) and adding sensors and other preventive measures. A few autonomous cargo airships are currently in operation, but I think airships have a so bad image, that they wont be re-adopted for passenger transport anytime soon. And helium is not future proof because of rising prices due to it's supply being limited.

The reason the fire started from the back was because the captain was pushing the Airship to its limits. That caused one of the control cables to snap and puncture the body of the airship. This combined with the static electricity phenomenon described in this video is what led to the spark that ignited the Hindenburg.

No, the static electricity built up between a hydrogen vent flap and the hull. Venting hydrogen was part of the docking procedure, but there was not supposed to be any static electricity. Someone must have used unsafe paint.

The fire was caused on the skin of the ship due to static electricity; the ship was one giant capacitor. When the hemp rope got wet from the rain, it became a conductor.

Yes.
@klausrachuy6411 Рік тому
That can’t be. The ropes went down quite a while before the explosion.
@sixstanger00 Рік тому
I don't think a static discharge would be strong enough to conduct that far. Rope is a very poor conductor, even when wet. It would require a fairly high voltage jolt to travel the length of the hemp rope. My speculation is that the ropes were dry, but served as a ground wire. The hemp ropes would've been anchored to something metal at both ends, and the ship-end would've connected to the metal frame somehow, which is far more conductive than than ship's skin. The rain in the storm(s) are probably what caused it to be positively charged inside and out. That's the thing -- just like if you were to stand on a power line, you wouldn't know there's a massive charge passing through you until you grounded yourself. The second the hemp ropes hit the ground, the charge has a pathway to the ground.

I never knew the hindenburg was a passenger ship and never knew how it crashed. I always thought it was a war ship used for supplies and was shot down by americans. It baffles and at the same time intrigues me how the interior layout and design were constructed so meticulously around the necessary components. This was definitely a marvel of engineering at its time, and now explains to me why the germans have always been at the forefront of design and innovation, especially in the transportation industry.

@q.e.d.9112 4 роки тому
Matthew Morycinski Until we start running fusion reactors, then we’ll have heaps of helium. But weight will always be the issue with airships. Another disadvantage, they operate at levels that subject them to a lot of weather, whereas modern aircraft cruise well above the weather. They could probably use dehumidifiers to capture water. Like you, I don’t think they’d be suitable as cruise liners, but maybe some billionaire might like a private Airyacht. Great platform for viewing things like the America’s Cup, or F1 Grand Prix. I’m afraid they’re always going to be unwieldy things, close to the ground, in turbulent weather. Severe wind shear could spin one out of control, though modern vectored thrust would help mitigate this. Sorry, just rambling. Must be time for bed.

There are forums on the net that talk in depth on steam power and how it works. As Oscar said "It would take a lot of typing to tell" I would suggest one of the steam car clubs for information.

The technology for its time was amazing. Less than 50 years earlier and the main forms of transportation were the horse and buggy, and maybe a steam powered locomotive or ship if you were able to afford the price.

Excellent reconstruction. Try adding the release of water ballast. Footage shows the crew had difficulty maintaining a level pitch as they were trying to land; the tail kept declining. So they released water ballast several times prior to landing; you can see streams of water being released from the tail. This adds support to your rendering where you mention there was trouble in the tail section, perhaps a gas leak.
