DIY Vevor Diesel Stove with Free Energy Sand Battery

[@brandonheller8266]

I exhaust into my wiseway pellet stove. So far I've added 120lbs of stones, cobb and tile that absorb alot of heat.

[@matthewyabsley]

@@RickardsGarage- You mean like try to break physics? Physics that’s widely understood for decades? And how do you propose we get past that physics problem of not having a pressure differential in the exhaust to push the gases through properly so the burn chamber can run efficiently? Maybe there is some heat that can be recovered, that much heat and extra friction in the exhaust (along with narrowing) is to be laughed at. Not just a little… but a lot.

[@PainterD54]

There are several videos of people running the exhaust thru a hot water cast iron radiator to capture most of the heat, which I thought was a good idea. I may run mine thru a long baseboard water heat tube with the fins on it to radiate the heat before it exits the room.

[@RickardsGarage]

I will make a new version soon, myabe that can give you some other ideas 😉

[@geauxherd762]

That’s a good idea too to capture more of the heat. The difference between that and the sand battery though is that the cast iron radiator baseboard will give you the extra benefit while heater is running but won’t store the heat like the sand radiating heat for hours after. Each is a great option depending on needs.

Amazing work on this project . I just got one of these heaters and I'm in the process of getting ideas for tapping all that wasted energy . My plan was to use a heat exchanger system like an EGR cooler, tapping the heat from the exhaust (obviously) and using a light weight oil similar to what's used in home radiators thereby avoiding it boiling over or over pressurizing the system,plus the oil holds in the heat pretty well, better than water alone .My plan is to use a holding tank,a 12 volt pump, a car radiator or an old home radiator ,a thermostat and a fan to drive off the heat from said radiator . I definitely like what you did with the project . Excellent work !

[@RickardsGarage]

Thank you! It sounds like you have a good plan so o wish you the best of luck with your project. I will build a second version of this soon.

[@janines4314]

Not entirely correct, Note -> No other liquid has a better heat capacity than water!

[@pa_maj.MARTINI-van-MAN]

@@janines4314 I was just to reply this when I read your comment. I only found this out myself a few days ago... The heat capacity of oil is about half that of water. Oil is thought of as hotter because it can be heated to higher temperatures than boiling water, but at the same temperature, water moves more heat into your hand than oil does. Harvard University 👍

[@stevebriggs732]

I run the exhaust from mine through an old towel rail to capture the heat

[@noelburke6224]

​@@janines4314well said it has the highest specific heat capacity. The best way to capture and transfer heat and won't boil tell it reaches 100 degrees centigrade in an open vessel at sea level.you can also pressurise it to conduct more heat above 100 degrees

[@randomnamehererandoname1727]

As soon as i heard about these heaters i bought one. I immediately wondered how well it would heat up a sand battery. Someone could charge a mint building these things for rural people. Now you just need to build an appleseed style biodiesel processor and get a few businesses to let you have their used oil. Then you'd really be ahead of the curve. Thanks for the video! Subscribed.

Good point. It’s going to eat the metal away inside the tank heat exchanger and leak CO into the house . He needs to neutralize the exhaust water.

He could do something as simple as add some baking soda in the line to cure that issue.

Baking soda would block up the line and only last for a short period.

The problem with this set up is that it will be corroded in some time from the inside out due to the acids formed within the heat exchanger. In this type of heat exchanger stainless steel is usually compulsory

[@CRYMEARIVER-S4]

[@dougle03]

Might want to give it fresh air into the combustion chamber to prevent it sucking air out of the room that will be brought in by outside colder air. This would make the internal air more efficient. Also, might want to secure the exhaust output from the heater to the tank coupler as the resistance in the tank could mean the lose fitting might blow some fumes into the room.

A suggestion to add to the build to make it Nobel prize level would be a peltier element to generate electricity for the heater and charge the battery. To make the heater completely self sustainable in a off grid cabin for instance, only diesel needed.

The instructions included with my heater warned against extending the exhaust pipe too much. I guess the extra exhaust length restricts the flow and can cause combustion problems.

[@A2J_Tim]

simply increase the exhaust pipe size if that is your worry.

[@A2J_Tim]

another thing you could do if you are worried about it, If you are running the exhaust through a heat exchanger like that, the exhaust is cool enough that you could put a fan inline with the exhaust sucking he exhaust through the pipe to help flow, at 4 degrees c you could use a computer fan to do this.

[@glennr9913]

@@A2J_Tim You'd have to be mindful to not create a lean burn, by pulling too much air through the combustion chamber. I'm not sure what problems that might cause, but obviously the fuel/air mixture needs to be within a specific range to burn efficiently.

[@A2J_Tim]

@@glennr9913 its a heater not an engine, your not going to damage anything, the whole point of a heater is to make heat, lean burning makes heat. also a computer fan is not going pull a massive vacuum on it enough to change what the heaters forced air is putting in, you are simply assisting the exhaust.

I watched a similar video where someone took an old electrically heated oil heater and took out the elec components and emptied the oil and ran the exhaust through the oil cavities and then had a fan behind that. Effectively creating an additional downstream heat source with the captured waste heat. I think your idea will work to save money

[@reloadnorth7722]

I have an old 100 gallon propane tank that I want to do nearly the same thing with. I will set the heater near the bottom and run copper pipe in a spiral and vent through the top centre hole where the valve once was, then fill with sand. I will probably weld heat fins all around it with a small fan blowing the heat away from the cylinder.

The condensate is acidic. Soon the copper coil inside the cylinder will be eaten by the acid and it will leak into the sand. The sand will get into the coil, block it and give back pressure, killing the heater.

[@alonsoiniguez3183]

How would you prevent that?

[@ChristianBHough]

@alonsoiniguez3183 you just can't use a metal pipe as it won't last very long. Plastic isn't really an option either. I just wouldn't bother with this sort of thing. When you start trying the heater to do something it wasn't designed to, you start introducing extra points of potential failure and hazards.

[@dantronics1682]

I bet you £100 this will never happen

[@blutorlz3]

Wonder if you could build one of these around a used electric hot water heater and pair it with a solar panel. Wire the panel to the existing restive heat element and then you could pump heat into the sand through all of the daylight hours.

[@RickardsGarage]

That's actually a great idea.

[@vociferonheraldofthewinter2284]

It didn't all 'click' for me until the end, then my brain put it all together. This guy just recovered all the heat from the exhaust and probably achieved almost perfect efficiency.

[@gaetanoroccuzzo]

Have you considered to swap around the exhaust of the diesel heater and the outlet of the exhaust fumes connections? In other words, the hotter fumes enter at the low part of the heat exchanger and escape from the top. We know that heat tends to rise, by inverting the flow you warm the low to middle part of the room primarily, which is where heat is needed most. I know there could be some condensation issues but they can be overcome.

Every build i see with theese heaters you use indoor air to feed the heater? and then you put the exhaust throu a heat exchanger and went it out of the building? wouldn't this create a ever so slighty under pressure in the building? Under pressurised buildings tend to draw in cold outside air.

En fantastiskt bra idé och konstruktion med enkla lösningar. Bra att du gjorde en ordentlig prototyp. Min tanke är att den kanske kunde ha varit lite lägre. Sand absorberar ju värmen väldigt bra. Skulle den vara påslagen en längre tid så det börjar att komma varma avgaser ur utblåset, så borde även ”tanken” få en behaglig värmande temperatur. Det va min tanke. Tack för ordet. Heja Richard.

Great video.What is your solution for the exhaust trough the wall going to be?

[@To-Mo73]

Sehr schönes Werbevideo für RYOBI von Hammerhenning. Die Überlegung die Abgase zu nutzen ist auch klasse, geht aber auch einfacher mit flachen Heizkörper an der Wand.

[@RickardsGarage]

Thats true but you don't have to worry about water leaking. Thanks 😃

[@gluttenglutten]

snyggt, jag hade dock lett in avgaserna och den varma luften utifrån för att slippa ljudet :)

[@stefanek4119]

Helt grymt intressant. Mycket bra gjort

[@jvsyoutube3298]

riktigt smart att ta reda på energin i avgaserna där, sånt man annars bara har som förlorad energi av dieselförbränningen! ja, sen upp med lite solceller/vindkraftverk/vattenkraftverk för å ladda upp batteribanken, guld

Amazing work mate.

Thanks!

Good stuff, I have a old solar water heater that I wish to repurpose the one with the vacuum tubes and copper head conductor's. Your idea and a RV battery switch "charges between two batteries. With peltier junction will eliminate power supply, perhaps even battery with ultra capacitors. Still going down the road on design. I am was worried about peltier junction getting to much heat your design resolves that issue.

Really love this. Thanks for the video

Why not use water isted of sand, Waters heat capacity is 5x higher than sand ??

[@frankkroondijk586]

you can heat sand higher than 100'C and this setup does not need expansion tank, pressure valve etc.

[@crazysnarfy861]

Awesome work! I was concerned the extra length of exhaust pipe your build uses might be constrictive? No issues with the heater after using this set-up long term?

[@RickardsGarage]

Thanks! I haven't been using it as much as I wanted so I cant say but as a prototype im very happy with it.

[@victoryfirst2878]

How long does the sand battery put out heat as if the diesel heater is running ???

[@RickardsGarage]

I will come back with those figures

@@RickardsGarage Lite besviken måste jag erkänna, inte över videons innehåll eller din kreativitet, för ditt bygge har ytterst liten energiförlust. Men den är gjord i samma stuk som många andra typ "indier i tå-tofflor som coldweldar ute i skjulet-videos" som dyker upp på tuben och stör blodtrycket acceptabla nivåer... 😁😂

@@RickardsGarage vill du få mer spridning på din video, så dela den i kommentarerna där andra grejar med sina dieselvärmare. Det finns en uppsjö med videos där man testar diverse grejer med dem. Jag ska försöka dela den så mycket jag kan. 😊👍

Jag sprang förbi denna videon: kzbin.info/www/bejne/b6C3mGqKpLSLfbc @Rickards Garage Känns som något liknande kan vara något för denna kanalen?

[@RedFlyerMedia]

I like this idea!

[@Pmz604]

Curious..Would it be better if allowed the heat to rise up , rather than to work its way down ?

[@jojje1986]

innovativt som sig bör :) även om jag personligen nog hade använt vatten istället för sand(billigare och skönt med varmvatten, om än mer ineffektivt). En tanke bara, har du något kolmonoxid-larm eller liknande i stugan? självdrag osv i all ära, men vill ju inte att du ska kola och sluta ladda upp nya videor 😉

[@mikaelica]

Håller definitivt med gällande avgaserna. Var försiktig, vi är oroliga för dig. Jäkla finurlig och klurig idé för övrigt 👍🏼🤩

[@mcg6762]

Vatten håller mycket mer energi per volymenhet och grad än sand. Problemet i denna installation är nog frostrisken. Jag tror inte denna stuga är uppvärmd alltid på vintern.

[@jojje1986]

@@mcg6762 aah ja det har du ju faktiskt helt rätt i, tänkte inte på det 😅
