Hi, I've built
rmh for my
workshop but I have a problem so I hope that you can help me.
when it burns without the barrel, it burns great, no smoke is coming out of the riser, just hot air. but, when I put the barrel on it starts to smoke and fire dies in a few minutes.
feed tube is 11" high, burn tunnel is around 12" long and the heat riser is 35" high. square tubes are 4x4" and heat riser is 4,3" in diameter + 2"of isolation (stone wool). between heat riser and the barrel there is 2" of space. barrel is 23" wide. exit pipe, for the gasses is 5" in diameter.
I was reading on this forum and I saw that feed tube is too high and it
should be 8". Is the barrel too big and the exit pipe too small? what do I have to change so I can get
enough draft with the barrel on? will it help if I put exhaust 3 meters high?, because now I have only 1m height.
This is my
rmh
