Wood Gas Generator Gasifier / Biochar #18 (part 3 of 3)

[HoffmanNicholasA]

Would like to know how much bio mass you use per a specific load on the gen set... Need more video of April!!! LOL

[joshuaburks]

Just curious, how many hrs of runtime do you have on your generator now?

[jab0805]

I love how April high tailed it back a few step when you adjusted the intake valve. LOL!

[jcornelius215]

Yes. I put valves on the oxygen and Woodgas line. Then set to the RPM.

[heliarche]

Looks great, both the generator, and April.Seriously though, you remove the carb and just pipe it right into the intake?

[jcornelius215]

I think the nabors thought i was making Meth.LOL

[wolf13011]

i wonder what the neighbors think when you crank up the rpm's and it gets vary loud it probably is exciting its max rpm's so i wonder if it can take the rpm's

[CharlieCheapshot]

Pretty good set of vids, a little dark at times but thanks for being pretty thorough.

[fishcake1235]

nice work - thanks for vid

[HolleyWood001]

running good my friend and you have a nice family and thank yoiu for all the info and i love your design

[turbomoore]

Cool. I'm going to do a stationary unit too after I'm done messing with my WG F150. Cheers

[jcornelius215]

The valves that control the wood gas and oxygen can be adjusted to run at any speed.

[kbert63]

How do you control the speed of the engine?

[jcornelius215]

Plans can be found on FEMA wood gasification.

[Phillipscreates]

where did you get your plans? how small of a combustion chamber would I need for a small 1000w generator?

[mytickets]

I see the truck in the photo,Now but the wood gas machine on weels hook it to the truck and with a little added HHO gas you will be driving for FREE

Thanks AAAAAAAAA++++++++++

[the404man]

yeah john your gonna blow that motor if you keep running it at so high of a RPM !

[energiaregia]

Very good work my friend, I congratulate you, it seems that you will very soon, power generated in your house with wood, Saludos!

[jcornelius215]

LOL, it want blow up. But it may out gas threw the lighting port during start up if there is left over gas in the burning chanber during start up.

[gaaraandsasukeluver]

it doesnt blow up? thats wut u wuz waiting 4.....

[jcornelius215]

The motor speed can be adjusted. But i think i figured out the problem. It has a bad ground fault switch. I have it working right now. But there is a shortage of wood pellets right now and i haven't ran it in a few weeks.

[NOBOX7]

hellow friend ,your a luky man

any way could you tell me where to get the plans for something like this,thanks

[joekirklin]

Well done, man. I haven't quite started on my gasifier yet, but I've learned lots watching your vids. Thanks for your contribution to us woodgas geeks.

It sounds like that engine is running too fast - maybe the generator is shutting its circuits off due to overspeed of the motor?? I imagine the generator needs a pretty constant RPM to maintain the 60Hz AC.

[jcornelius215]

I built this for my hunting cabin and do p[lan to buy a battery cell pack. I also have a wind mill and soon will get some solar panels. The wood gas generator will used for an emergency back up. Yes I have thought of using it to heat the water at the hunting cabin. But first i am going to make a ram pump to get water to it. I still have alot of project to do and not enough time to do them all. But it is fun when i can work on them.

[kmdental36]

Awsome.  Good Job. Now to put a box around it to soundproof it so it might set in the garage and produce power. Are you going to invest in a Battery Cell pack to charge? I am envious. Are you going to harness the heat to boil water or use on a hot water heater?

[jcornelius215]

I use wood pellets and wood chips that are about 1 1/2" and smaller.

[OVAT131174]

what is the maximun size of the wood chips that you gasifier can use

[benknefelkamp]

only if my girlfriend was half as supportive of my stupid tinkering projects...

[radicaldan0]

Good work friend. Cheers to you and your family.
