Small Engines Charcoal Gasification
#701

Hi Koen
I would like to know the order of magnitude of depression of a gasifier the engine intake?
How H2O ", and cyclone gasifier and filter?
Thierry thank you.

Hi Thierry,

I hope i understand correct: you mean the vacuum from the engine and all parts ?
Up to now, i build them as “easy breathers” so low pressure drops for the small engines.
The use of small, soft charcoal , helps a lot to keep it “easy going”

Two more little projects to build a gasifier with.
The white little pickup is a “Tuk Tuk” with a 3 cylinder 659cc gasoline engine. It has a EFI :stuck_out_tongue:

The green trike is an electric driven, need to build it with gasifier-engine-pmg to battery charge and drive.

Hi Koen
You know the compression ratio of the engine of your truck?
It is a small-displacement engine and a square.
You do not miss crainds power?

Thierry,
The engine is a 3 cyl , EFI , 598 cc, Daihatsu
Common used in Thailand Tuk Tuk and Japanese little trucks

CR = 9,5, Bore 68mm Stroke 60mm
On gasoline it should have 43 Hp @5900 rpm

I don’t need the power, i just need it run and move the car with some reserve power…

Just got informed. The minister of energy from Myamar is coming to visite my work here next monday… damn, going to be another long weekend to prepare things, but sure will give some good pictures to post…
Even possible without the flip flops this time… :wink:

Nice comparison on the truck sizeing,how fast them trucks drive on regular basis.Looks about like the ones the deer hunters use trail rideing,and they go about 25 mph.The tires look a little bigger than the trail wagon transit.

Koen; I am so happy with the work you are doing there. The fact that you have the attention of the Minister of energy is just amazing. Keep up the good work.TomC
