Hello Everyone. Thank you of watching, I hope you found the video interesting. If you did or if you didn't let me know below. For those of you who are new to my videos subscribe and go and check out my first video on the biogas digester I mention here: ruclips.net/video/Z9MTCFWTpyo/видео.html
Hi John. Yes there would. I was a bit nervous to do that as I was unsure about the thermosyphon. If the pipe is directly heated by the flame and the water doesn't flow the pipe would get too hot and could melt. With a bit of mass between the two the chance of that is reduced. Now I have it working altering the chimney is definitely an option to increase the temperature of the water. Cheers
Very nice, I like this. Thanks for sharing. I was caught up with finding clay, and the sand works just as well! A trick for bending the copper pipe is to fill it with sand - prevents any accidental "close bends" when you get a bit rough on it
Thanks. It held up for the time I used it. But the chimney wasn't big enough to heat up the water quickly so I changed the design a bit with some suggestions from a viewer. You can check it out here: ruclips.net/video/X3n7POMqS_c/видео.html Cheers!
Just an idea, using an earth battery with a jewel thief circuit to run a fan and use a rainbow burner in a small furnace to heat your biogas forced air furnaces don't take much fuel to run.
Well spotted! Yeah, put tape on to ensure they did stay in place while the sand was being poured. It was only scotch tape so will burn off when it is all in place. Cheers
se voce colocar a bobina pelo lado externo é melhor, porque o carbono gerado internamente inibe a temperatura voce tem perda de calor ba bobina de cobre. Se voce colocar a bobina em volta do tubo ceramico e envolver com manta termica ou mesmo barro, como proteção, isso irá manter a temperatura!

Would you get better heat transfer if the flames came up through the coils, rather than just picking up from the central metal chimney?

The "Bollocks" expletive towards the end split me up 🤣🤣🤣

Sand works great, you just have to find something to be your inner, to hold it in place. Thanks for the suggestion!
great video
Thanks!
I like that idea. Has the tin chimney held up with use? Mine always seem to melt. Two different diameter clay pipes might work .... I might try that.

Nice idea!!
Thanks 👍
The copper tube how thick is?
10mm - its in the description ;-)

I like that idea, especially the forced air furnace. I'll have to do some research on those. Cheers
Nice
Thanks :-)
the video sped up around 6:45. It looks like you put some kind of silver tape around the can seams..?
Well spotted! Yeah, put tape on to ensure they did stay in place while the sand was being poured. It was only scotch tape so will burn off when it is all in place. Cheers
Did you just chip a hole at the bottom of the stack for the pipe to come through?
Even more basic than that. Just sat the stack on top of the copper pipe, supported by a few fragments of tile and then sealed the gap later with sand.

Great idea
My volume's all the way up; but, I can just barely hear you. :( Otherwise, it looks like a great video...
Thanks. Sorry about that. Is that at a particular point or all the way through?
@@GetMeOffGrid_ All the way through, unfortunately, For comparison, I can hear other videos just fine; so, I know it's not my speakers.
Sorry not rainbow, ribbon is what I meant. Sorry again.
No worries. Just found a cool video explaining them here: ruclips.net/video/f8mYUzButFQ/видео.html

Is this what you mean? en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Joule_thief
@@GetMeOffGrid_ That's it yes, Joule Thief (energy unit).
