Regarding the ice formation at the bottom of the dimethyl ether tank

2011-05-11View Original

Thread Content

A friend of mine uses dimethyl ether as a fuel source; one gas cylinder is sufficient to power one stove. However, freezing occurred at the bottom of the tank, making it impossible to use dimethyl ether gas. I asked the manufacturer, and they said that a gas cylinder must be connected to several stoves through a distributor in order to avoid this issue. I would appreciate the guidance of all teachers: 1. Why does freezing occur at the bottom? 2. Are there any solutions? 3. Is it true, as the manufacturer claims, that multiple stoves must be connected through a diverter in order to use it?

This situation only occurs when a large amount of gas is used, I guess.

Reply to 1# zxx0877: It’s likely that the amount of vaporization occurs very quickly; as vaporization takes place, the temperature around it drops, which leads to frosting and freezing~! The solution is to pour hot water on it~!
