Just finished another siphon nozzle gun burner for the boiler. Now working on a vertical siphon nozzle burner for a shop heater. No Pump but with a forced...
All us WVO burners know that when we get a properly emulsified oil - in the right ratio of oil to water, it burns hotter and burns cleaner. I also know that...
This is pretty standard on diesel trucks with a lot of boost. Helps drop the egt's about 250f. I never thought of it for raising the temps. Cheap neat idea if...
Hello, I'm new to the group. I'm looking to convert my 32 year old oil furance to a used oil furnace. Has anyone done this? Can anyone point me in the right...
Call randy at simple centrifuge in Morgan Washington this is what they do. Visit www.sevtecexplorer.com On Dec 4, 2007, at 12:09 PM, "veronica_galeano1"...
Is the use of water in a motor engine not in a spray/mist injection and used to reduce the temp of the cylinder to allow a higher compression ratio? memory is...
It is sprayed in. Both gas and diesel use the systems. There are two types I know of. The first came stock on some foreign cars such as datsun. It was what...
I think you could be right on that one. He did give the impression that at the high temps of a racing motor there was a certain element of water splitting. ...
I am burning daily. I just had a disaster tonight. I got a batch of emulsified oil and two 40ltr barrels burned great - hot and clean. The last 20ltrs of the...
Hi Jerry hoping to find some time soon to experiment again with the protos design, also had a couple of blokes with biodiesel glycerol by product turk style...
Chug So your burning the glycerol by product. Is that the fats filtered out when making biodiesel? Looks like you have a good clean burn judging from the...
There has been so much posting come and gone I can't remember if my idea has been tried. My inner burn pot with holes has burned out and this time I want to...
Hi William If I'm picturing your plan correctly the idea has been tried and has had a fair amount of success. I look forward to hear your progress reports....
... I agree with Dale. Your idea sounds very similar to what myself and Dale did last season. Mine is up and running reliably now. I think the end of your air...
The three "T"s of good combustion are Time, Temperature and Turbulence. Two other good high temperature insulations are Rock Wool and Vermiculite. Ron...
is it possible to use BD in a a Turco Villager 20000(BTU)Kerosene Heater, it has a 2050w output. If not B100, would a mixture of BD and Kerosene work? Thanks....
I am not know about the Turbo Villager. Biodiesel will not work in wick type heaters. Some folk have converted Salamander style heaters. I believe the nozzle &...
Geez I hate asking questions like this cause there is no way this has not been covered in here before. But I've done lot of searching both here and on the net...
I think injecting water into an oil burner will cause a reduction in efficiency. It takes energy to convert water to a vapor, energy that would've been used...
You may have a point, and the physics is plain. However emulsified oil does burn hotter if the water content is low enough and the burn is hot enough. I will...
My 2 cents. It seems to me it would be a good idea. If dripped directly onto the hottest part of the burner, the vapors would help convert the conversion of...
Stephen, Do you think it is because the droplets assist in breaking up or adding more oil surface to be vaporized? I have done experiments with water also and...
You might well be onto the true explanation. Its not unreasonable to guess that water splitting is going on at the elevated temps achieved with forced air...
