Previously, I build an easy to make, simple propane burner. It worked, but not great. Today, i'm making it great. Not only do I modify it a bit so i can adjust the air/fuel ratio, but i do something stupid and duck tape a hair dryer to it. Why? because more fire. That's why.
Turns out when you need more air, you can force it down the burner's throat. Who knew. Forced air propane burners are officially awesome. Also scary. But awesome.
The biggest improvement is capping off the back, and making some kind of sleeve to adjust the air hole openings.
Want my advice? I assume you do, since nobody except truly dedicated viewers ever read this far into the comments. My advice is don't do forced air propane burners. Stick with the normal kind. Forced air is just lots of over complication for what I assume isn't an appreciably hotter flame. I love rube goldberg devices as much as the next guy, but the thing is powered by gas. You don't want to plug the thing in, too.

A simple 90 degree bend just after your air intake helps the cas and air mix much better, it will also cause the gas and air to roll. Take a look at how some of the more experienced smiths set up air forced forges and you will see they all have a 90 degree bend on the burners.

I did a similar thing with an air matress inflator to push the temperature high enough to melt copper and brass. My flare was a 1 1/2 inch to 2 inch adapter like yours, however I used a 2 1/2 inch car exhaust coupler with slits cut in one end, hammered in a little to meet the 2 inch black iron adapter, and tack welded on. Makes a great flame holder. Pulls a little extra air in through the slits. It glows red hot when operating.

@PaulsGarage
@PaulsGarage 7 лет назад
+Home Built By Jeff thanks! Same to you! I actually got into the foundry stuff hoping to cast some replica/custom car parts, like knobs and handles that are cast, and some engine parts (assuming I can get machining them figured out). The car projects don't start until the toy jeep is done though. Wish I had something like a 911 to work on!
@HomeBuiltByJeff
@HomeBuiltByJeff 7 лет назад
Casting is something I haven't played with at all yet, but maybe in the future it could be worth playing with. One of those torches could come in handy on car projects though. I have often needed to heat something up (like with dent removal) and I don't have an Oxy-Acetelene torch. That could do the trick.
@PaulsGarage
@PaulsGarage 7 лет назад
+Home Built By Jeff yeah the propane burner is super handy, I can heat treat stuff, cast stuff, temper/anneal stuff. Propane has a much cooler flame than oxy-acetylene but the flame in mine tends to be much larger, so lower temps but higher heat affected zone. Also my burner will not melt steel no matter what I do, so it's less likely to accidentally burn a hole in something. As a bonus a propane tank is less likely to blow my garage up. Acetylene scares the crap out of me.

@darktideryezing
@darktideryezing 6 лет назад
Paul - Thank you. This was an issue I was currently having with my design and you helped me figure out how to alter it to make it work properly. It's a bit of a different design that uses a welding tip as a propane nozzle (so it could technically be changed out if I needed to alter the AF ratio). The only major downside is that it lacks a cut off valve at the torch, but it has an adjustable regulator with a flow gauge at the tank (and the hose is only 4' so I'm right next to it regardless)
@PaulsGarage
@PaulsGarage 6 лет назад
glad i could help! 4' is a pretty short hose, i'd want a longer one. The shutoff valve being so close like mine isn't a great idea, the heat could potentially screw it up. So far mine is fine, but that doens't mean it will be fine forever.

I have heard that inserting a cup shaped piece of fine mesh, the same diameter as the inside diameter of the burner tube, into the end of the burner tube, just before the bell end of the burner will prevent the flame from travelling back down the burner tube. Of course you will need to ignite the burner at the hot end for this to work. If several pieces of mesh are used, the propane / air mix will be evened out and a more effective burn will be achieved. The principle is the same as was used for mesh covered miner's lamps in coal mines around the turn of the century (and probably before that.) As I said, I have never tried this but it sounds like it would work.

At a bronze casting foundry we made drilled 1/4" black pipe "shapes" with 2 feeder pipes that were attached to adjustable natural gas and compressed air sources. Each drilled hole became an individual touch and the "shape" corresponded to the shape of the casting mold we wanted to pre heat.

Maybe this has already been said but I think if you have the holes in the side of the pipe you would want to plug the hole at the end of the pipe. It's letting air mix with fuel right at the point where the gas is coming out. You want the air coming in after the gas, your set-up has air coming in before the gas as long as the end of the pipe is open.

@davidj9729
@davidj9729 4 года назад
its the speed of the fuel air mixture.. thats why industrial burners have diffuses.. they dont do it for the cool swirling effect, the flame is always trying to burn back to the nozzle you need the speed to feed more air and fuel into the flame before the flame can outrun the source. the "normal" versions of these types of burners are mechanically tuned the jet of fuel from the orifice creates a vacuum and the cone shaped intake (reducer coupling) facilitates the correct air volume, changing the flow rate through the orifice changing the vacuum and the air volume giving you a mechanically tuned dynamic mixture based on the supply pressure. the flared burner end (reducer coupling) causes the the mixture to slow down and burn in a controlled manor.
@archangel20031
@archangel20031 5 лет назад
On mine, I added a plenum with a caged fan to push the fuel and air out the front of both burners with some serious force (a lot more force than a hair dryer can supply). Even so I get the same thing out of the air suction holes happens, and I just place my finger over the hole and POOF, the air being forced in pushes everything with force and the flame shoots out the front. The issue is some of the mixture is back flowing out the holes, if you stop that it will have to shoot out the front and forcing the air (with enough force) through the pipe is the best solution.

Drill your primary holes around the circumference of the pipe on the angle as you did on a line just forward of the nozzle outlet. The three holes in a line disrupt air and gas flow, the air should ender the combustion chamber from the same position around the circumference of the inside diameter slightly forward of the jet (orifice)

"Why does it keep doing that." There was no question mark at the end of that sentence. You're clearly an intelligent individual. Who, perhaps more clearly, has a lot more theories than answers. Simply put, "I read about propane once, and I have no idea what the hell's going on. But I'm gonna just keep doing shit until it works" I watch your videos because they are so similar to how I figured these things out (exceedingly low budget and nearly no experience with common tools in a regular setting) , and occasionally I derive ideas from your attempts. Like me, you seem to have an attempt to success ratio that is far out balanced. Combined with the incredibly drab rambling, I really enjoy watching your shit. I love it. We're friends now.

@dogsarebest7107
@dogsarebest7107 6 лет назад
Hey, the reason your burner wasn't running right is because you have far too low pressure and made a screwy design. It could still work, but this type of burner doesn't run off a BBQ regulator. I didn't see what the reg you were using was, but based on sound it sounded like a bbq reg, or at least under a psi or two and possibly a much too large propane orifice. These types of burners usually run 20psi+ with a .023" or 0.030" orifice. The reason it kept sucking back into the tube is you simply don't have enough velocity to push the propane out the end and suck air in the ass end.

@josephlieberman5324
@josephlieberman5324 5 лет назад
Using a refractroy fibre behind a screen just after the air gas but before the flame, this can act as a flame arrestor to disallow your flame from going backwards into the air mix chamber.

I have a torch that was having the same problem, flames going back down the pipe and creating a terrible racket and very little heat. I solved it by increasing the length of the pipe. For me the problem was that the air and propane was not being mixed sufficiently and backfiring down the tube a dozen times a second. I went form a 6" pipe to a 12" pipe and the mixture coming out the end was then sufficiently mixed and the flare at the end stops the flame from traveling backwards due to the low pressure zone it creates. A well mixed flame produced a sufficient sucking power that you wont need any forced air to push the propane down the tube.

+Andrew K is that the "popping" noise I hear some burners making? I always wondered what caused that.

u should try to put ur just at the end of a 1" black pipe in the center of a 1.5 to 1 reducer and make an small flat threaded washer to adjust air flow like Alec Steele does with his burners

+Daryl Gardiner that's more like a reil burner, this is an Oliver upwind burner so it's a totally different design. The reil burner is probably better though.

Last video I commented that that looks A LOT like a Bunsen Burner... well, now it's even more like a Bunsen Burner. But yeah... over-complicate it to be awesomer... it's the only way to go!

I added an air regulator from a paint gun and fed forced air from a compressor and can fine tune my air fuel ration

“This will be temporary” “By that I mean permanent” I’ve been watching you not to really learn anything but to have a laugh. Great videos 👍 Hilarious that you wear a suit jacket while building things.

Ive seen guys run the hair dryer. It looked good to me.. even if you keep propane low the hair dryer should still make more heat?

I thing you have to make holes in the cup perpendicular to the flame stream your problem is solved but with the blower you need swirler to avoid yellow spot

I could help you! I suffer from of the same disabilities and experienced the same problems. Forced air is without a doubt the idiots way of dealing with these problems put a big reducer(bell end) on the end and hook up a shop vac with a Harbor Freight speed control. Oh shit you figured it out!! Anyways, you should be a saftey officer for OSHA. Next video wear roller skates. Keep em coming, good stuff. 👍

I had another video on building the burner, but really i'd suggest building a "ron reil" burner instead. This one has proven to be tricky to use, though i've figured it out since i made this video.
