    That is not a 200 percent efficiency at all. The exhaust gas can only heat a small section of your radiator, the bottom remains cold, indicating the hot exhaust gas flow is small. Yes, you are recovering a little more heat, but certainly not the amount you hoped for. To achieve a 100 percent increase over the 5 kW initial output would require another 5kW of exhaust heat, they do not waste this amount ever.

    if anyone wants a cheap super simple way to extract heat from the exhaust, just buy a pack of scotch bright stainless steel scrubbers. You can expand them from the middle and slip them onto the exhaust pipe. They have a ton of surface area and conduct heat from the pipe really well. they work pretty well already by passive heating, but you can add a fan to help a little. You can buy a 16 pack for $10. Thats all you need.

    If there's something you don't want to do with a combustion heater, it's to obstruct the exhaust. Smothering the exhaust can lead to disaster sooner or later. You must ensure that exhaust fumes can easily and without restriction exit the building. If you wish to recover some heat, attach a vertical chimney to your diesel heater. Do not reduce the diameter of the chimney!

    🤔 pluming it through the top and exhausting at the bottom. You are losing 90% of the heart Plum the entry to the radiator at the bottom and exhaust at the top. That way way it heats the entire radiator before exhausting.

  • @camillosteuss

    not per se... if you put it at the bottom, and have a forced air from the furnace, then the inlet at the top forces the hot air to go down the radiator due to increasing pressure, thus extracting more heat from the air... If the inlet is at the bottom, then the hot air just naturally surges upwards to the exit hole, extracting less heat from the air... Generally what you say is true, but not categorically...

  • @daveunderwood6498
    @daveunderwood64983 ай бұрын

    I have to say that this is one of the best ideas I have seen on KZread. Of course condensation will form in the rad, but being cast iron and the exhaust low, it will drip out the bottom. Those heaters burn so efficiently that you won't have to worry about soot collecting in the rad. To test for this possibility, when it's new, record the temperature drop from top of rad to the bottom. After running it for months, or years, keep testing the temperature difference. If soot is forming on the inside of the rad, the temperature difference will become less. The exhaust temperature, at the floor will increase. The soot will act as an insulation. I can't see that happening though because of the burn efficiency. I only thing I would do differently is a more positive, sealed connection between the iron pipe and the heaters' flex line. Easy fix. As for the haters in the comment section, these people are shocking ignorant to basic science. You can tell they have done nothing in life. Nice job. It has given me some ideas.👍
