Next question as I am about to place an order for the firebox steel.
Can the firebox be TOO big? What is too big? 150% on the calculator? 125%? Is it better to go bigger? Id like to be able to put standard cut wood in my box but my tank calls for a smaller firebox. I was thinking of...
Next question.
When calculating the size of the exhaust stack. Does the part that hangs down into the CC count as part of the length or am I only considering the length that sticks out from the CC? Also, should the stack be on the end (im using a compressor, so it is round, not flat) or can...
Radius= 8.75
Segment height HD = 3.2
CALC
CHORD AB = 13.529
Apothem OE = 5.55
Central Angle = 101.27
ARC AB = 15.465
circumfrance = 54.9
segment area = 30.116
triangle area =37.
sector area = 67.59
total circle area = 240.53
So in this example, the width of the RF plate is...
Dave, you the man. So essentially, I come up with 3.2 for line ED. So if I am understanding this correctly, my RF plate will sit 3.2" high from the opening into the CC or another way of stating it is the widest part of the opening will be 3.2". Then whatever 3.2"in height corresponds to will...
Dave, that helps a lot. Using that, here is what I come up with. It is pretty close to the other calculator as well.
Volume = 7696
FB/CC opening = 30.78 square inches
area under RF plate = 30.78 square inches (is this then the actual size of the plate?)
area at end of RF plate = 30.78...
Please review my work before I start cutting things up! I also have a few questions if you do not mind.
Currently I have a big green egg and a weber smoky mountain. I like the egg for grilling but I am not loving it for smoking (I know it can be a great smoker, but I prefer traditional). the...
