Thanks Jim;
That IS a help. As far as the actual mixing goes there must be big
variances from one design of pump to another , in just what type of
impeller is used and how close the tolerances are. For my part I find
my pump mixes things up very nicely in fact I can see the change in
color
Thanks Jim some good info, but I couldn't find the building an orifice chamber you mentioned on the JTF website.
Could you provide a link?
ThanksMichael LuichNow if you go to the hardware store and buy a bag full of SSteel washers
another of 1 PVC Couplings, 4 tees and 4 elbows you can increase
Hi Joe,Hi Jim,
My reactor is pump mixed too,but I am using two
pumps of different types-one SS from the food brand
and the other is clear water-cast iron case and
turbine.As far I am controlling carefully the both and
I didn't`t noticed any changes,the pumps are in fine
Michael,
Here are the links,

I use a 1 dia PVC Coupling and a ss washer that just fits inside. the
hole in the washer is about 1/2dia.

Hi Joe
How come you're so metrically challenged? You're a Canadian, not an
American, no? Cross-border pollution by sheer osmosis? LOL!
Hi all;
I looked in the archives for info on pump size recommendations. I found
a few messages relating to the clear water pump but what I am after is

Hi Joe,
The Clearwater Model 01479 is rated at 330 gallons per hour or 1249
Liters per Hour when it has to lift Water no more than 0 foot before
expelling it. It will lift water as much as 10 feet but you can expect
the GPH or LPH to drop exponentially when you approach that much lift..

Hi all;
I looked in the archives for info on pump size recommendations. I found
a few messages relating to the clear water pump but what I am after is
does anyone have a rule of thumb on pump throughput versus reactor
size? I know variables such as reactor dimensions, tall vs short
location
What is the pressure that those gpm ratings are taken at? I suspect
the 1/2 horse pump is rated at a much higher head than your 1/20th HP
pump.
Also, are you sure you are getting 5gpm through a 3/8 fitting? It
seems a little high for that small of pipe.

I am thinking the
clear pump is actually 330 GPM not GPH.
Joe , I just bought a 3/4 HP submersable and the well driller says it
will put out 10 GPM

The suggestion would be to continue the reaction for ~1/2 hour beyond the
point where your glyc cocktail volume stabilized.

Between all the exchange between some of our members, I lost sight
of the ideal pump size strength for mixing a 45 gallon drum of
home brew (filled to 30 gal)
Right now I have a 1/3 horse 1 pump. I am about to connect to my
reactor.
Is this in-/overly/perfectly adequate?
