[Gasification] Horizontal

[Ian Vincent]

Hi guys..mostly...!

I have a vehicle. What I would call a Van. Names for vehicles vary with 
culture. It is a Toyota Townace Diesel. It is sitting in my shed..it has a 
cylinder head leak that causes it to blow its water and overheat..BUT

If I take off the cylinder head and fix the leak..and at the same time put 
in some threaded holes for spark plugs..then it could be a candidate for a 
gasifier conversion. But I have never seen such a vehicle used with a 
gasifier. Hence why  I ask your collective comments.

There are two problems..maybe more. As I see them.

Problem one
One is that there is not enough height for an primary gasification chamber. 
The bigger the better..More Km. There is plenty of room..but horizontal room.

Problem two
Is  is that the gasifier device is inside the van..and the potential for my 
own personal gasification. CO!!..I am not suicidal at this point in 
time..so why. It is an easy problem to solve. ie just die!!

Solution
BUT!! there is a possibility..that collectively all of our brains and minds 
can solve these problems..hence

If I put a barrier between the drivers compartment and the unit..then 
problem two goes away. Right?

Next is the height thing.! My reasoning says that a conventional gasifier 
delivers its fuel using gravity, vertically.

Yet the rocket stove principle delivers it fuel horizontally. And it has a 
distinct advantage over conventional ideas..right?

(hey! is know the rocket stove is about the temperature gradient) ..this is 
about gradients..In gravity..right

My question is this!!. Is it possible to have a gasifier chamber that is 
horizontal? A ninety degrees change in gradient. From vertical to 
horizontital. (Orthogonal perhaps).

Ideas are what is wanted here..imagination..engineering..etc


Regards

Ian

PS. Allow your art become your engineering!..or vice versa...and if you 
cant understand it try tesla.
