It seems like these are legally binding only for public buildings.<br /><br />In 'non-public' situations I believe my principle would apply. ie, You can go against code, but you need to be able to defend your method and calculations to your peers if something goes wrong.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-326167780677397310.post-87259135577185710712016-05-16T13:12:08.943-07:002016-05-16T13:12:08.943-07:00Jed, I actually based the calculation on the (old)...Jed, I actually based the calculation on the (old) 52 ecat setup.

They are mandated by law, and spelled out in detail. A boiler of this size must be regularly inspected, and the inspection includes a measure of efficiency.<br /><br />An engineer who does whatever the hell he wants instead of the mandated inspection procedures will lose his license and his livelihood.<br /><br />See:<br /><br />http://www.myfloridacfo.com/Division/SFM/BFP/BoilerSafety/documents/CHAPTER554.pdf<br /><br />http://www.myfloridacfo.com/Division/SFM/BFP/BoilerSafety/Jed Rothwellhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00179077151947615762noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-326167780677397310.post-68236234989412656212016-05-16T10:42:28.379-07:002016-05-16T10:42:28.379-07:00"Why is Jed Rothwell going round saying there..."Why is Jed Rothwell going round saying there would be 100's of KW of waste heat? <br /><br />It's ridiculous"<br /><br />No, it isn't. Mats Lewan, the people from NASA and others who observed public demonstrations of these units reported they were quite hot despite the insulation. A video shows a woman accidentally brushed against the unit and jumped back because it was so hot. There is no doubt they radiate a lot of heat. There are 52 of them in the reactor, so that is a lot of surface area.<br /><br />The insulation was the same in all photos I have seen.<br />Jed Rothwellhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00179077151947615762noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-326167780677397310.post-14689807573260955412016-05-16T01:46:55.570-07:002016-05-16T01:46:55.570-07:00DB, you are right

Think of them as out-of-date-bare-minimum-best-practice. <br /><br />Engineers can do whatever the hell they want, following the code is just a handy way to limit liability for them. <br /><br />As long as a (certified) engineer can justify a different, or even a better way of measuring heat, they are free to do so, that's between them and their liability insurance provider, if the worst happens.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-326167780677397310.post-358421921347311952016-05-15T20:53:41.579-07:002016-05-15T20:53:41.579-07:00Why is Jed Rothwell going round saying there would...Why is Jed Rothwell going round saying there would be 100's of KW of waste heat? <br /><br />It's ridiculous.<br /><br />Any fool can look up the thermal conductivity (K-value) of, say, PIR insulation.<br /><br />They you can estimate the external area of each 250KW ecat module.<br /><br />Then, knowing the temperature difference between the steam and the interior of the shipping container, (approx 90C) you can calculate how thick the insulation would need to be to limit any heat loss to 1%... Which is about what the air-con unit in the shipping container can handle, according to the photographs.<br /><br />Hint: It's around 70-80mm. And you can buy PIR sheet at a hardware store.<br /><br />You don't need to be a HVAC technician to work this out, it's called Fourier's Law, and it's pretty basic stuff.<br /><br />Losses through pipework are similarly negligible if lagged properly.<br /><br />Comparing it to commercial boilers is daft: They burn gas. Gas burns at high temperature. These high temperatures are harder to contain. The e-cat is easier to insulate, both because it works at lower temperatures, and because there's no combustion to ventilate.<br /><br />With a normal boiler, a large amount of waste heat is going out of the flue. That's a major cause of their crappy 70%+ efficiency.
