    In the UK ages ago, houses relied on heat from a real fire.
    Most fireplaces had a BACK BURNER, which heated water, which filled a tank by convection current.
    The hot rank was strategically located to act as a radiator.
    With just these simple devices, the whole house was kept warm, and had free hot water.
    We got all complicated when gas central heating took over.

    This is literally how my radiators and hot water work in my house in England from a coal fire,
    I’d point out a couple of safty and efficiencies you can make.
    A header tank with a float (ball) valve will give you continuous hot water, with the added bonus that you can put a vent, allowing pressure release so it won’t burst the main tank under heat.
    Also, cold water should enter the BOTTOM of the hot water tank, just lift the tank higher than the fire.
    Hot water rises as you know, so if you take the hot water from the tank at the top, you are always using the hottest water in the tank.
    It’s worked here for 150 years or so! Excellent video!

      Another brit here, glad to see that others are keeping these traditions going! Funnily enough I want to do a self build and asked a load of people of they liked my idea of having a wood burner to heat the whole house and use hot air that's heated by the burner to ventilate the property. They were like 'that'll never work or pass building regs you need solar panels, an air source heat pump and a mechanical ventilation system installed'. It'll only cost an additional £25k but you'll save money in the long run, what a joke! We need to embrace some of these older technologies that are probably more eco friendly than all this new tech.

      @@relaxingsounds3952 Burning wood is one of the dirtiest fuels we can use. If everyone switched to wood, or coal, no one would be able to breath and cities would turn black and you would never see the sun again. I am not against it for a cabin, or rustic homestead, or antique home. I had an "Oyster House" in New Haven, Connecticut and loved it. It was wood burning, then coal fired. It had an amazing Victorian boiler system. I used wood. The stoves and ovens were also wood burning.
      I think geothermal is the way to go for climate control. The drilling is not expensive and the equipment can be made yourself with common hardware.
      The best way I have seen to heat water for showers and baths is the electric coil, instant hot water heaters, like the shower heads in South America. Without electricity, then, this method above. But, tanking hot water is such a waste. Feed the water thru the coil and right to its point of use. If you want to store the heat, build a chimney/stove/oven with a lot of mass with secondary coils in the mass.

    Our household hot water was heated by our wood burning kitchen stove in the same way. The system was pressurized but the actual circulation of water between the heating chamber on the side of the firebox and hot water tank was convection. We used to feel the side of the tank and you could clearly tell the exact level of water in the tank was hot, that's how you judged if there was enough to take a shower. Early internal combustion engines also relied on convection, our old two cylinder John Deere tractors had neither water pump nor thermostat.

    This is how my dad made hot water for us when we were camping, fishing, hunting even in the winter. Just made a 2 or 3 rap coil of 1/2 inch copper tube attached to a couple of lengths steam gun hose to a 20 GB metal barrel with 2 through hull fittings one high one close to the bottom. Just put the copper coils in the bottom of where your camp fire will be fill the drum up with cold water from the lake or stream keep it topped up from time to time. Just take the lid off. Dip a pot or ladle in remove some hot water replace the lid to keep falling objects out. This system can boil water quite quickly. So don't let the water drop below the lower or outflow from your water drum. Before that happens remove your copper coils from the fire or top up the water. If your lines to the fire go dry you have a very good chance of damaging your copper coils and your steam gun flex lines. Possibly even melting your copper coils.

      James Cookston consider getting a "portable LPG water heater", just get one from ebay, you can get a good unit for under $200. They come as a kit with all the required fittings and a small 12v pump you can run off your car battery, if you don't have a car, buy a 12v battery and a cheap 12v solar charge kit.
      I used one for several years before I built my rocket water heater and solar thermosiphon combo system. From experience these little LPG systems are a must have for anyone going off grid and setting up as they go. Used a 9kg gas tank every 6 - 8 months, showering everyday and using it to wash dishes etc, so it was only costing me $40 a year in gas.
      Unless you have all the tools and knowledge to build a wood burner right away, take the path of least resistance and make life easy on yourself.

    @atomgonuclear 10 років тому +16

    This is a pretty cool idea. I have to say though, if you made it out of stainless and made some baffles to slow the exhaust down you could drag a LOT more heat out of it. The modern boilers are 90%+ efficient with this design. The exhaust gas temp leaving them is so low you can run it through PVC pipe, however the water vapor extracted from the flue gasses is corrosive so you need to make your chambers stainless. You were measuring the outside of the boiler at 570-580 degrees. High outside temps mean all those extra BTU's are going to waste. Wrap it in fiberglass insulation and it will help.

    • @zstick
      @zstick 10 років тому +1

      I was thinking the same thing about wrapping everything up. Especially the tubing from the coil back to the tank could be losing a lot of heat. I love the idea, though. With just some minor modifications this would be great for SHTF or off the grid living.

It was so pleasant sitting around fire with her and drinking the tea and listening to her stories. She also made bigger volume of hot water by using her big copper pot for washing dishes and other use. She also had samovar, which is a Russian made very decorative boiling tool for making tea. It was made out of solid copper with chimney in the middle, encapsulated by water in the copper shell. I kinda like my grandmas !!!

    This is awesome. I saw one other guy do this but instead of using a water heater he used a big pot and an open "t" in the copper pipe in case the pressure built up. The water heater has the advantage of having a normally closed thermal expansion valve so you're not losing heat all the time but you still have protection in case you build up too much pressure.

MEAPY THEY SAY ITS BLACK BECAUSE ITS A NIGHT TIME HUNTER. I DONT REMEMBER IS IT NIGHT TIME HUNTER OR NOT BUT IF ITS: HOW WOULD EVOLUTION KNOW WITHOUT INTELLIGENCE TO PUT BLACK COLOR? HOW WOULD EVOLUTION KNOW TO PUT RABBIT A WHITE COLOR WHEN IS WINTER AND BROWN COLOR WHEN ITS SUMMER WITHOUT INTELLIGENCE? THEY PROBABLY SAY EVOLUTION DEVELOPS ANIMALS WHERE THEY LIVE: WHY THEN WHALES HAVE LUNGS AND FISHES GILLS? AND THEY ALSO SAY LEGS DEVELOP TO FISHES AND IT WAS FROG OR SOMETHING FINALLY:
      THEY BRAKE THEIR OWN LOGIC WHEN THEY SAY THAT! AND HOW ABOUT FISH GILLS? FISH GILLS SHOULD ALSO TURN INTO LUNGS. ITS INPOSSIBLE AND THEY BRAKE THEIR OWN LOGIC AGAIN! AND HOW ABOUT PLANTS: THEY SAY PLANTS DEVELOPED IN THE SEA! HOW THOSE PLANTS AND TREES THEN CAME TO LAND? I HEARD SOMEBODY OF THOSE EVOLUTION THEORIST TOLD: PLANTS AND TREES WALKED. HOW COULD THE EVOLUTION ALSO DEVELOP FOOD TO ANIMALS, LIKE BERRIES AND PLANTS WITHOUT INTELLIGENCE. EVOLUTION DONT HAVE INTELLIGENCE BUT IT DEVELOP EVERYTHING WHAT WE, ANIMALS AND THIS WORLD NEED! ONLY GOD CAN CREATE LIFE AND EVERYTHING WHAT WE NEED❤❤❤❤❤❤❤🙏. I WAS SO SICK AND I WAS SURE IM GOING TO DIE BUT AFTER MY MOTHER SAW THREE VISIONS OF JESUS AND ONE ANGEL VISION MY HEALTH CAME BACK VERY FASTLY❤❤❤❤❤❤❤🙏. e..l is running now and try to destroy us all! hell is real and I saw how terrible those horrible e...s are and dont give. US ANY MERCY. GOD AND JESUS WANT TO SAVE US😥❤❤❤❤❤❤❤🙏. AFTER I STARTED TALK I HAVE LOST SO MANY FRIENDS😥. THIS IS HOW YOU CAN CALCULATE evolution is a lie.

      TO GO IN FACEBOOK AND I CANT COMMENT TO UA-cam TOO. FINNISH NEWSPAPERS ALSO BLOCK MY STORIES. THOSE HOW BELIEVE IN EVOLUTION TELL WE ARE ABOUT 2-2.5 MILLION YEAR OLD. THEN EXPLAIN THIS THEY ALSO TELL EARTH HAD 252 MILLION PEOPLE WHEN WE START TO CALCULATE OUR TIME 2019 YEARS AGO. HOW THEY CAN KNOW THAT ITS INPOSSIBLE! DOUBLE THAT AMOUNT EXAMPLE EVERY 100 YEAR. YOU ARE GONNA SEE ITS INPOSSIBLE. AND THIS IS ONLY DOUBLING THE AMOUNT OF PEOPLE. MY FATHER TEACHED IN SCHOOL AND CALCULATED THIS VERY QUICKLY: 252X10POTENSSIIN6X2POTENSSIIN20=2,64×10POTENSSIIN14 250 MILLION 500 1000 2000 4000 8000 16000 32000 64000 128000 256000 512000 1024000 2048000 4096000 8192000 16384000 32768000 65536000 131072000
      AND WHEN WE TAKE 131072000MILLION÷EARTHS POPULATION 7530 MILLION=17406,6 TIMES HIGHER WHAT WE HAVE NOW. THOSE EVOLUTIONIST LIE TO US. e..l is working and try to destroy. us. PUT SMALL NUMBER EXAMPLE 10000 AND CALCULATE HOW THAT EXBLODES. OVER A THOUSAND SCIENTIST HAVE APPEALED THAT THEY NO LONGER BELIEVE IN THE THEORY OF EVOLUTION. THE LIST JUST GROWS ALL THE TIME. YOU CAN FIND THAT VIDEO ON UA-cam:
      ua-cam.com/video/xQgOjHsMEeE/v-deo.html
      WITHOUT GODS GUIDANCE I WOULD NEVER UNDERSTAND CALCULATE THIS. I PRAY AND HOPE YOU SHARE THIS OTHER PEOPLE TOO❤❤❤❤❤❤❤🙏. PLEASE READ ISAIAH 24 IN THE BIBLE BECAUSE ITS HAPPENING NOW!

      @TheMrTape Рік тому +2

      He makes a mistake, in lifting the outlet above the tanks water level, because that makes thermal siphoning impossible, the very thing he's purporting to show. What's moving the water here is steam, because the water inside the coil is allowed to boil from inability to move. The water in the coil being so hot, means a much lower temperature differential and thermal exchange, and it's not really moving in the first place, just gargling from the boiling. A proper thermal siphon creates continuous circulation, and is probably over 20 times as efficient as this.

I run the heater hoses through it. anytime I'm traveling, I got hot water, but you have to be careful. It will get to about 190 degrees(engine temp) instead of 120, like with propane or electricity.

    This coil version looks great for outdoor camp situations, the parts are portable and the burn method is powerful and efficient…great demo.

      And outdoors require room/tent/space heating as well. The fire can thus serve 2 purposes of heating the air near the folks and water for the folks :)

    While there may or may not be a more efficient way to do this, given what is available or free on the road side. The majority of those that commented with questions on this post are the selected crowd. It is that cycle of life that will control. It was clearly stated if power goes out or off the grid use. It is so simple to understand in that if you don't you are the ones who will be the first to die. Young children are not simply suppose to draw their own bath water or have access to anything like this...and as for elderly that can't take care of themselves, they either have someone to do it for them just like now, or in the event of "needed" use for this device, will succumb to natural selection. And for those not given the intelligence of thought...gravity...simple gravity will give water pressure. God gave you a brain people..perhaps it's time some of you use it.

      NOT SURE but this might work. Change plug on phone line from phone to network plug then buy dongle that goes from USB to to network plug than double female connector to plug everything in.
