Default Alternative power Refrigeration

I kind of hate to tell you this, but maintaining the liquid fill in the
generator (you called a burner pot?) is actually pretty simple.


yup, I think I said that right from the start, as long as the boat is rocking
around a bit, but NOT in an RV parked off level more than a few degrees.

it will function properly at
latteral loads to 1g


more than 1 g actually. much more.

Wouldn't that would be
close to a 45 deg heel?


no. lateral loads and degree heel are not interchangeable terms in this issue.

The last people that called me about this project a couple of years ago
bought consulting time


ah, THAT proves you are knowledgeable, doesn't it. someone paid you money to
hear you talk.

They were looking at a system to include in
powerboats.


then they were wasiting their time. powerboats have excess power available
compared to the power needs of a reefer system.

Ventilation became a serious issue. That would still be an
issue in good boats.


nah, a propane reefer has such a tiny flame is hard to tell the unit is running
unless you hold your hand over the chimney for upwards of thirty seconds or
more.
