pop-Pop Candle Boat Toy - Silver 

Product : Candie Boat

Description : 

A pop pop candle boat, also known as a putt-putt boat or a pulse-jet boat, is a small toy boat powered by a simple heat engine. The engine operates on the principle of heating a small chamber of water, which creates steam pressure that propels the boat forward.

Here's a brief description of its components and how it works:

1. Hull: The boat typically has a lightweight hull made of wood, plastic, or metal. It's designed to float on water and accommodate the engine and fuel chamber.

2. Engine: The heart of the pop pop boat is its engine, which consists of a small chamber positioned at the back of the boat. This chamber has one or more tubes extending from it. The chamber is usually made of metal, such as copper or aluminum.

3. Candle Holder: At the back of the boat, there's a small platform or holder where a candle is placed. The candle provides the heat necessary to generate steam in the engine.

4. Water Chamber: Inside the engine chamber, there's a small reservoir of water. When the candle is lit, the heat causes the water to boil and turn into steam.

5. Steam Jets: As the water boils, steam is expelled through the tubes extending from the engine chamber. The force of the steam escaping creates a series of pulses or pops, hence the name "pop pop boat."

6. Propulsion: The pulses of steam shooting out from the tubes create a series of small bursts of propulsion, pushing the boat forward through the water.

7. Rudder: Some pop pop boats have a rudder at the rear, which can be adjusted to control the direction of the boat as it moves.

Pop pop boats are simple and fascinating toys that demonstrate basic principles of physics and engineering. They're often used for educational purposes to teach children about steam power and mechanical motion in a playful way.
