Mounting 100% pantone on large generator
published: 16/02/06, 00:48
hi, well i will attack a first assembly on a declassified generator of the army.
It is a model based on a car gasoline engine so big consumption. At the price where gasoline is, it seems essential to run it on diesel.
Here are some pictures:
the beast :
the engine and the location for the reactor:
As you can see here, the intake and exhaust manifolds are one above the other glued so as to heat the carburetor, a configuration that will make my job easier for my installation!
As for the reactor I plan to build it from a steel rod 14 mm in diameter, 15 cm long with a clearance of one mm with the tube in which the gases will circulate.
Regarding the intake of gases that will exit the reactor, I still hesitate between drilling directly on the intake pipe and between installing a venturi above the carburetor:
As far as bubblers are concerned, again it's quite a program!
A bubbler for water and one for fuel oil or recovered vegetable oil. For both the principle will be the same:
Already it seems to me essential that the system be as quickly operational as possible to allow current use of the thing. It is for this reason that I chose to heat the liquid in the bubbler with exhaust gases.
a thermal probe (a beast ctn should be enough) placed in the liquid gives me a resistance which interpreted by a simple electronic assembly will command me a valve on my bypass to the exhaust according to the temperature of the liquid. To simplify my mounting it will work in all or nothing, the mounting will allow me to adjust the threshold at which I let the gas pass. To control the valve I will use a solenoid for opening / closing the car door.
I think bubbling is optimal when the air passing through the liquid is preheated. After considering external preheating, I think the easiest way is to use the heat present in the bubbler to heat this air, so everything will be at the same temperature.
The level of the bubbler will be kept constant by an Austin mini carburetor needle tank which has the enormous advantage of not being integral with the carburetor itself.
To minimize the risk of admitting drops of water in the reactor I plan to install a foam at the outlet of my bubbler.
to see a little more clearly a shema of principle (certainly a little ugly, I am very bad designer) or nothing is proportioned!
So much for today. I keep you informed of developments.
