l'Artz !
« on: February 27, 2021, 04:16:58 pm »

Hello!
I am glad to present you my ARTZ !
There is not too much to say about her . This is an ORION Moulding hull that I have arranged in my way.
I did ask JPB to make me this boiler according to my drawing. There is 8 vertical boiler tubes of 100 mm long x 6 mm diam.
The burner is a tiny Bobino’s one 60 mm long x 14 mm OD that I managed to perform allright .
This is first time that I try such a small size. It is perfect with a N° 8 jet / 25/100 - 80/90 g/h.
I maintain 2.5 b pressure with my TVR : 7.5 cc @ 1000 Rpm in the H2O. I even need to slow down the gas rate with a gas pressure reducer. I removed the Liquid phaseous to supply the burner: no need .
That is also why I installed an electric feed pump to maintain the level and cool down a bit.
At the end, the equilibrium is fine and I can sail quietly while sipping my beer ! %)


As usual, I take what I have on the shelf , thanks to Ebay  or others supports and I try to build something with it.
And as usual again, the engine that I show at the begining is never the definitive one at the end.
But it is more fun to try, change and play.
Thanks for watching.
Regards.

Very nice build. Boiler and oil separator are fantastic.  Orion mouldings builds excellent hulls.
