Ive read several different opinions on water tank size... I want too see what your burn times and cycle times for 24 hrs on equal size stoves..water tank capacity... with water temp up to temp..... not from cold start....about the same btu requirements.... I am fixing to build an OWB to heat a 2500 sq ft house and 900 sq ft garage....
Here is my thoughts about this subject... If you have a large capacity of water you will have long burn times but less cycle times..
With small capacity you will have shorter burn times but more cycle times..... I think in the end you will still burn the same amount of time...
My stove I THINK will be 1/4 thick fire box 36 dia x36 long and water tank 60x60x36... Still have to figure out tank capacity....
Have to see what dimension the metal comes and have it bent....
I will post a pic soon....
