Smokeless Shops

Creating a vortex


An Iforgeiron visitor to my shop remarked that he didn't smell smoke in my shop. I am posting this topic to explain the lack of smoke in my shop. If you look at the forge pipes going up the side of my barn/shop, you will see at the top of both smokestacks turbines like you see on the top of exhaust hoods at restaurants, which act like sails,catching wind and creating a vortex inside the pipes which suck the smoke right up the pipes.

  1. they work by creating negative pressure in the pipes, which occasion a force differential, and under the Law of Inertia, precipitate upwards motion of air
