A9. Our old boat " Seas the Day " was a single engine 8,000 pound boat that went about 25 knots. It burned about 15 gallons an hour at this cruising speed. Bigger dual engine boats range 20-40 gallons an hour. The Nordhavn 43 is about 55,000 pounds. Yet because of its design and slower speed, it consumes only about 2.5 gallons per hour. Slowing down burns as little as 1.8, speeding up can burn 3+. Said another way, we get about 2.5 to 3.

oil - also referred to as Bunker C. To atomize (see next question) properly, the fuel must be kept hot, so steam pipes are routed through the fuel tank in the tender to keep it at 130 degrees F. 1522 did not always burn oil - she was originally built as a coal burner but only stayed that way for a year before being converted. Wood, while burned on real old steam locomotives, does not put out the heat needed to operate larger locomotives like the 1522. See similar questions...

The stove can burn most any fuel: methanol, anhydrous isopropyl alcohol, Coleman white gas, gasoline, kerosine, etc... It has, however, only been tested with methanol and anhydrous isopropyl alcohol. Take appropriate precautions when testing out your stove with new fuels (test outside away from building, etc...). See the disclaimer at the bottom of this page. Methanol can be purchased in at your local hardware store in the paint / solvent section of the store. See similar questions...

Yes! The big difference is that wet fuel may take 80% more air than dry fuel. Operationally, you may wish to meter the wet and dry fuel to create a consistent fuel blend or you may want to exhaust the least merchantable fuel before using a more valuable fuel. With the controls designed for this scenario, this can easily be accomplished. In general, any time there are continuous variations in fuel quality, it is desirable to have an operator near by the steam plant. See similar questions...

The Luminarium Outdoor Hearth was designed and built strictly for use with Fire Designs Hearth Fuel. Burning anything other than Hearth Fuel could cause damage to the unit or your property and would void the warranty. See similar questions...

Both will burn less at slower speeds and Moonglow will use more fuel (as all boats do) at higher speeds. Both vessels are powered by diesel engines. See similar questions...

No test can accurately predict fuel economy for all drivers and all driving conditions. Driver behavior, driving conditions, vehicle maintenance, fuel characteristics, weather, and other factors can all affect fuel economy significantly as explained here. See similar questions...

The fuel is poured into the hole in the center of the stove. Take care not to get any fuel on the outside of the stove or overfill the stove. If there is fuel on the outside of the stove walls when the stove is lit, a person runs the chance of the stove bursting into flame. The stove should not be filled any higher than 1/4 inch from the rim. See similar questions...

It is true that PowerCard only adds fuel. We designed it that way to keep it simple and affordable. Our belief is that in almost every situation, addition of fuel is what modern fuel injected vehicles need. In order to meet stringent emission standards, fuel systems are mapped by the factory to be lean in cruise and everyday driving conditions. See similar questions...

No, diesel fuel is not approved for the M601 engines. Use of a un-recommended fuels may cause serious damages to the Fuel Control Unit seals which could result in fuel control problems and loss of power in-flight. See similar questions...

Since burning fat is such an important aspect of supplementing with CLA (Conjugated Linoleic Acid) we have dedicated an entire article to the subject.

This depends very much on which prop it is, which fuel you use, and how you use the prop. Our regular sized poi wicks has a burn time of at least 4-5 minutes with good flames, the larger props considerably longer. A big factor is the shape of the wick: A larger surface area and thus more exposed wick gives bigger and more dense flames, for example the knotted rope wicks we make. A larger volume can hold more fuel, so the more unexposed wick there is, the longer it'll burn. See similar questions...

Night Vision Devices (NVD's) were developed over 40 years ago by the U.S. Military. The first NVD's were "Active" IR (infrared) devices, meaning the viewing device could "see" infrared light focused on an object, similar to the way the eye sees a conventional torch beam. The difference is that the IR light beam is invisible to the naked eye, so the viewer could observe the subject undetected. The user would focus an IR beam, then "see" what the beam illuminated with their scope. See similar questions...

All Turbo flame lighters use 'Clean Flame' technology which means that the flame does not deposit carbon residue on the item being lit. Unlike most lighters, Turbo flame will not leave unsightly black marks on candles or discolour wax and fibreglass when repairing skiis and other outdoor equipment. See similar questions...

The laser that is used for PDT is not a burning laser. It produces a thin beam of red light; this is not hot, and not even warm. The laser light is very carefully directed onto the tumour, so that the photosensitiser is only activated in the tumour. See similar questions...
