Hello fellow gassers,
I’m going to build a monorator top for my gasifier from a 24" diameter water storage pressure tank my neighbor donated to science. I can make my total unit height 16" shorter using this tank and retain the existing volume of fuel loaded. I think I’m looking at a 2+ hour run time. We’ll see. Hopefully this will wring more water out.
Pic 1 Both ends have the same shape and a 3 1/2" crown.
Pic 2 This will become the new lid.
Pic 3 This will become the loading end since it already has a hole in it.
Pic 4 The plan. The monorator will bolt to the existing studs for the old hopper (last pic). There’s plenty of room to bolt it down through the large open lid. At least I’ll be doing something in the shop while winter plays out. Going to minus 10 F this week.
Yes the flanges in the last pic are not shown on the diagram, good catch, lol.
Pepe
