I've been mentioning that I'm interested in a WVO setup, and had an idea on how to do it on my IDI. Some people were interested in seeing a diagram of my idea, so I finally got the chance to get one drawn up.
Any comments? Does this look feasible? BTW, the coolant going with the WVO between the tank and the Racor would be in one of the Greasel "3-way hose" setups that they have.
Thanks in advance! [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/cool.gif[/img]

They're all expermenting with creating homebrew anhydrous ethanol for the BD production, and got carried away with sampling. [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wink.gif[/img] [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wink.gif[/img] [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wink.gif[/img]
The diagram is actually pretty hard to follow. I suggest using standard engineering process flow icons for the various components. I stared at it for a couple minutes before I realized the tank selector valve was a valve and not a tank, which made the filter plumbing pretty non-sensical.

Anyhow... Back to sampling... [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wink.gif[/img] [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/laugh.gif[/img]
I agree on it being hard to follow; I whipped it up pretty quick.
Where can I find a description of the proper engineering process flow icons? I haven't taken any engineering classes at school [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]
The diagram's also not complete; I meant to add in a couple of valves (to run the fuel from the main tanks through the diesel filter, so that I could run regular diesel in them if needed) and such...
