Hello ! Happy New Year to all the curious ...
Good yesterday I did some manipulations with my little pot of "vap poly comb"
I made some measurements and I made a plan that I attach to you. I modified the air holes as shown on the plan, (the 3 bottom holes are raised by 1cm.) All the details are on the plan.I measured the fuel consumption (gas oil + sunflower oil) with A kitchen scale gram close The measurement starts with all in steady heat regime I wanted to note the fuel consumption, the average power consumed by the compressor, the temperature of the pot.

Here are the measurements (hour, tank weight in gr, whether or not the air compressor, 0,35 Bar pressure (229v, 6,85a, cos phi = 08, Absorbed = 1255w):

15h38mn00s 331g comp = 0 (start of measurements.)
15 41 00 321g c = 0
15 41 45 316g c = 1
15 43 00 311g c = 1
15 43 40 306g c = 0
15 45 00 303g c = 0
15 46 00 299g c = 0
15 46 10 298g c = 1
15 47 00 294g c = 1
15 48 10 ........ c = 0
15 49 00 285g c = 0
15 50 00 281g c = 0
15 50 40 278g c = 1
15 52 45 268g c = 0
I conclude that in 885 seconds I consumed 63g fuel either (63: 885) x3600 = 256g per hour or fueled power consumption (10kwh / liters x 0,256) = 2560 watts(+ -)

Power consumed by the compressor: it worked 360s on 885s so 40% of the time is on average 1255w x 0.4 or 502w.

During this test I think I had too much air injected (the flames came out a little of the pot) hence the consumption of the compressor ...

I also think that holes are too close to the top of the pot ... These parameters are very important to optimize the operation. I will join some photos and video very soon ...

I enclose a plan ...

I promised photos and videos of the manip, here they are:









Note that I have a fire extinguisher not far! And you ?

Measured, 799 ° C against the outside of the pot, about 1000 ° C at the exit of the flames, although my thermocouple thermometer type k can go up to 1300 ° C, I did not want to go in the middle of the flame to not grill it ...

The videos are private, you can not access them.

If your work is very interesting, I will inspire me
of your system and inject the oil from the bottom rather than the side.

I'm surprised you do not consume more oil. But
the better.

Hello, I put the videos in public ...

Hello

post unearthing

how are you? zen are or ??

I will post news of the pool boiler one of these days
