Hi, Mike, Ron and Greg! Thanks for the accepting comments! The upper (nozzle-tip-circle) area vertical imaginary velocity is as natural as the imaginary...
Mr. Max; I am sorry I didn't get back sooner. I did not sleep very well last night thinking about what I think you said. To me it appears to be the most...
My home a/c unit isn't continuous. it cycles on and off with a thermostat. My car a/c runs for 8-10 hours at a time on trips, and has over 1000 hours per year...
Steve, Figuring an average speed of 50 mph that is 50,000 miles of AC per year and as you are somewhat up north, that might mean 120,000 miles a year. Do you...
I'm in SC, and drive all over the south east doing renewable energy projects. Steve Spence Renewable energy and self sufficiency http://www.green-trust.org ...
Hi Steve, I think I checked out pictures of a project of yours with all the horizontal panels over a walkway around a swimming pool area in SC. After I...
Finally got around to uploading a video from the Arkon Workshop of Any's truck flare on Saturday evening. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JdkQ3cjd2_4 Haven't...
I do have a place in NY. My kids use it. It's 1100 miles one way, so that is another source of my miles. I run a diesel suburban that gets 20 mpg on veggie...
Hello, TomC! "We need to get Tom Reeds book that talks about this type of construction and any other information and study that as much as we have studied the...
Hi Max, I sure hope you don't feel that somehow there was a reason your knowlege, expertise, or opinions were not desired all this time. I remember when you...
You put that many miles on a car in a year? 1000 hours is the equivalent of a 20 hour/week job. I feel your pain. I used to put that many, but don't drive much...
FWIW, I experimented with using an automotive A/C unit to cool the GAS before the engine.... NOT with the standard chunk in the heater, rather, I used a coil...
Mr. Max; I know you are not on here for long winded conversation,so I am just going to say "thank you" again for pointing us in a different direction and...
I guess Mr Wayne prefers questions here, or anybody just jump right in. As I try to understand how this technology works, I've downloaded the entire contents...
Hi Mike, Given the use of the Ford rather than a converted diesel(as I assumed) I better understand your response. So much work(and cost) to set up and...
Hello Norm. Sorry i haven't answered your email. I am way behind, right now I have 45 unread and many more than that unanswered and just put in a 13 hour...
I uploaded a few pictures, if any one is interested. I put them in Wayne Keith WV Small Farm Conference folder. This may not be perfect gasification test...
Hi Ron, I think we got that right ? Mike L BTW, I was in the refrig business for years. too bad all those old belt drives took a hike. Guess I could say I've...
Mr Wayne, My wife has over 200 unread emails on her iPhone, I would just delete the first 200 and start over, I don't have the patience for that much email. ...
Hi, TomC! "In a single throat, the area of the "nozzle circle" would be approximately the area of the "hearth tube"?" ¤¤¤ Nozzle length is not the criteria...
With the help of some info I gathered from this group, I've been working on my first gasifier. Nothing fancy, nothing efficient... just something that'll...
dharris, I like it. Nothing like seeing your dreams turn into reality! Planning on burning wood chips? Anything bigger and you might have bridging issues with...
... Thanks! And no doubt. My neighbors seriously think I've lost it. I had to borrow a 7/8" bit for the ports in to the side of the hearth, and the machine...
At the top of your tube your fuel should be original size. As the blocks move down to the nozzels and heat, thats where they start to decompose. If you can...
Hi Norm and welcome to the group! Instead of trying to figure this stuff out from the emails you will probably grasp it quicker if you read the Woodgas Bibles....
TJ, It looks like you're getting ready to belt them together and make electricity. Cool! That can't be the Generac you were talking about before, what is it? ...
Max and entire group; PLEASE DISREGARD ANYTHING THAT I HAVE SAID ON THIS THREAD!!! I have miss understood what Max was saying from the first post and I am sure...
