"" I've seen World War II tank heaters that were just a fractional horse power Clinton engine with a heavy cast iron cylinder on it, a squirrel cage blower was monuted on the engine shaft and the blower drew fresh cool air across the hot cylinder and blew it into the tank. It was mounted outside and could be regulated just like you regulate your lawn mower engine. Indeed nothing more or less than a heat pump. Stan Wilder "" Lemme see, the Clinton engine is the one with the 5-cycle combustion process, right? 1. Suck 2. Squeeze 3. Bang 4. Blow 5.
