16 KW Chinese diesel water heater
มุมมอง 5K8 หลายเดือนก่อน
So here's my current setup utilizing a 16 kw Chinese diesel engine block preheater. This whole idea came about after the -14 degrees lows we were having last winter and the smaller 5kw heater not being able to warm the cabin up fast enough after work. this system is able to warm the place up much faster and is far more convenient with the addition of a smart thermostat which i can switch on an ...

    These are kind of toys. Electric engineer told me that if u wan't 24 volts and 250 watts u have to 2 meters long blades and mechanical brake to it when it get too windy. He had one made centrifugal adjustment for blades angle of attack. He calculated blade and wind speed and when wind got too high the blades angle of attack changed according to that with centrifugal force And there were a centrifucal brake too, all made from car brake waste parts.

    Hello. Voltage at Maximum Power (Vmpp)= 34.5 V Current at Maximum Power (Impp)= 9.59 A Open Circuit Voltage (Voc) = 40.2 V Short Circuit Current (Isc) = 10.1 A I have 2 monocrystalline solar panels worth 330W... How can you connect these 2 panels to this MPPT 60A solar controller? With serial connection or parallel connection? Because I looked at the device information, it is 12Volt. It says that the highest 80Volt input can be connected for the battery (VOC). (my 12.8v 200Ah I have a LiFePO4 battery) So should I use it only with parallel connection? I was confused and wanted to get precise information... Thanks.

    • @TheWickerShireProject
      @TheWickerShireProject 6 วันที่ผ่านมา

      Open circuit voltage is zero load on the panels. So lets look at Vmpp 34.5V we can x2 and get 67 Vmpp well under 80v max for your 12v system. Connect the 2 Panels in series.

    This video save me, my heater was starting to make a lot of noise and it was the bearings, completely toast. I bought a new motor and followed your instructions, working like a charm. It took me 45 minutes taking care of not damaging the fragile centrifugal fan. The black one came easily. My gauge for the centrifugal fan was 0.28mm, for the black fan I pushed it as much as it would allow me without rattling. Good as new.

    Forget 400 watts. You're lucky, to get 40 watts out of it. A turbine generator like that would be a better match with a 3 blade rotor with a shallower pitch, so it can run at higher speed, with less torque. You can increase power by allowing a higher voltage, at that highly limited current. A pulse width modulator can be used, to turn the high voltage low current into a voltage suitable for your battery, at a much higher current, than is produced by that turbine. The problem with that 5 blade rotor is, it can never achieve the RPM, and it produces MUCH more torque, than those tiny magnets can ever hope to use.

    I want to do this on my CDH , but I'm thinking of using a full ceramic bearing . These same size bearings are used in many applications like roller skates, skate boards, luggage wheels , and so on ... There's a rating for these bearings called ABEC . So an ABEC 11 bearing would be a good replacement . Hopefully a full ceramic bearing will make the heater even more quiet .
