    Standard Reverse Flow Smoker Calculator... by DaveOmak and others... Ready to use.. rev5.. 6/19/15.

    Question on that Center Feed Double Reverse Flow concept of mine. Will it work if I bend the 2 opposite ends of the RF plate down 90 degrees, lets say 2 inches in length? This will create a sort of heat pocket below the RF plate to even out the heat distribution and flow?

    Center Feed Double Reverse Flow Smoker Build

    Some design drawings of the CFRF build. Had some questions regarding the stack diameter and length. 3 options shown on drawings. Might just go with the 5" or the 4". Still waiting 100% confirmation from forum wizards.

    I think at this point I'll refer you to my build thread for further Q&A's. I don't want to hi-jack this thread with my build Q&A's :emoji_end::emoji_sunglasses: Link to my build thread: https://www.smokingmeatforums.com/threads/center-feed-reverse-flow-smoker.286000/:emoji_white_check_mark:

    Center Feed Double Reverse Flow Smoker Build

    Maybe my understanding of the Exhaust Calculation is wrong? It seems like the called for length is +-36" by adjusting the diameter in the formula. I get a 2.65"ø @ 36.5" calculation? I've also read a thread on here that as a rule of thumb, the stack should not be much longer than the diameter of...

    Some screenshots from my drawing design. You'll note I've included the 3 types of exhaust stacks as discussed previously. Note that CC size is slightly larger than noted on drawing. Gallon size is actually 39.6258 (150L) (I have to convert everything from metric to fit pit calculator...)

    I keep on coming back here, recalculating things and adjusting design drawings...should be a pro soon :emoji_sunglasses: 2 Questions. 1. Assuming I have a center feed FB, with FB/CC opening center on top of FB (cylinder type), will it be okay if the lower air inlet and upper air inlet sit on...

    Thank you Dave. That made sense to me and I've adjusted drawings accordingly.

    Hi all. having a look at the pit calculator and have a question on the "Volume in cubic inches X 0.004 = Area under the RF plate in square inches" step. Is this the area when looked at in section view? In other words, the area between bottom of CC and bottom of RF plate?

    Will this calculator work for a center feed FB (cylinder) reverse flow CC (cylinder) design? https://www.smokingmeatforums.com/threads/center-feed-reverse-flow-smoker-throat-size.286000/

    Center Feed Double Reverse Flow Smoker Build

    Good day all. Need some assistance with FB/CC throat measurements of a Center Feed Reverse Flow Smoker design that I’m busy with. I’m using 2 donated tanks for the CC and FB so I’m working with what I have. The CC dimensions are 16.14in (dia) x 41in (L) = 36.31gal and the FB is 18.9in (dia) x...
