Hey Guys, |
|
Glad I found this site. My name is Dail, live WV, facinated |
|
by anything steam.I've watched all the steam vids, n must say |
|
that I think you're on to something with the flash monotube |
|
boiler.That has been the trouble with steam,, the boiler. Tank |
|
boilers , even small ones are not to be trifelled with.This in |
|
my opinion is a much safer approach. I've spent my working life |
|
around boilers in the lumber / plywood industry, and ran a |
|
boiler for GGeorgia Pacific that dried about a million ft of |
|
lumber a week. |
|
Now the questions. What size are the engines(bore n stroke) |
|
in the vids? They appear to be PM Research engines , but not |
|
sure. How does the water control work? I see the spark plug,, so |
|
must short the circut when gets under water. Not very good with |
|
electronics here.Eould it be practical / safe to up the preasure |
|
a bit ,,say to near 100lb? that would increase power quite a bit |
|
, as well as efficency. Pretty sure the tubing would stan it ok. |
|
Have you considered adding a bit of larger tune at the top of |
|
coil , inside casing to act as a steam dryer??? would sure make |
|
engines happier |
|
I would love to work with you on this some, as a tool for |
|
emergency power , as well as off grid use. |
