You have basically the same setup as the oil fired boilers back in the 30's/40's. Only we would use steam to pre-heat the oil and spray it out as a fine mist from a nozzle in the center of the turbolator and only air would flow around the turbolator.

But good job, nice setup.

@memadmax69 Thanks. The overall structure is similar, but this doesn't use any nozzles, so it is very different functionally.  Do you have any drawings or know of where I could see details of these nozzles? I'm always experimenting with these things.

@billygotgrove have a look for GOOGLE PATENT #us2863499 . pressurized water steam is then burnt with oil at 50/50 ratio. economical and well worth a look

@neiallswheel Nice. thanks

how many oil use for 1 hour ????

[billygotgrove]

@zaycew1 That a hard question to answer as it all depends on how much flame you want. Set up like that, I would guess about 1/2 a gallon per hour.

Good burner info, I'm converting a regular wood stove, lots of surface area.

I'd like to know who the band is too.

@atomrocketcar Thanks for the comment. It is a real word- Anything that induces turbulence. Be sure to watch the other videos of this burner.

@KoolFJ40 I checked, but they updated the titles available to put in these movies. It might have been by the "12 Stones" its a very similar sound.
