A Hundred Years of Firewood-Powered Vehicles (documentary)

Описание: The documentary film "A Hundred Years of Firewood-Powered Vehicles" explores the history of gas generator transportation, specifically automobiles powered by wood. It covers the origins of gas generators, the golden age of wood-powered vehicles when 75% of cars worldwide were powered by wood, and the increasing cost of oil over the past 50 years. The film delves into the history of gas generators and how the idea of using wood as fuel for transportation came about. The film discusses the invention of the gas generator, which was originally used by metalworkers to save on coal costs. It also touches on the difficulties faced by early inventors in making gas generators practical for vehicles, as well as the resurgence of wood-powered transportation during the 1973 oil crisis.

This documentary film tells the story of the emergence and development of transport gas generators, specifically about cars that ran on wood. The film begins with an introductory speech about the golden age of gas generator cars and how oil prices have increased 100-fold in the last 50 years. Then there is a discussion about antiquity and how people used a blast furnace to smelt iron, which later became the first gas generator.

The film then takes viewers back to the 19th century when metallurgists began using gas to heat air in furnaces. At that time, there was a rapid development of technical thought in all industrial sectors, and the first industrial gas generators were built.

The film also tells the story of an important historical event that occurred in 1840 when engineer Ebelman in Austria discovered a completely different way to turn peat into gas - the principle of reverse combustion. Thanks to this discovery, it became possible to use gas generators for cars where there is little space to place gas-cleaning filters, and the gas must be as tar-free as possible.
