Climate change: July set to be world's warmest month on record
Yellowtail replied to Social Media's topic in The Green Forum
And yet with all the silly alternative energy, social engineering and climate hysteria , we are continuing it generate more CO2 each year. Does that not concern you? -

No, climate science is not a religion. Climate hysteria is a religion. -
Again, I don't know what is meant in bold. A 300ft^3 bottle will hold 300ft^3 (~8500L) at NTP when charged. Knowing the actual volume of gas, you can approximate how much gas you need for per unit length of weld using the flow and feed-rates in the work instructions. A welder just changes out the bottle when it's empty or almost empty, I assume it's a bit more of a concern for the diver. Is Harbour Freight the UK version of Harbor Freight in the US? I like, and the guys typically prefer the floating ball style flowmeter.

The "Stay the course" was meant to be facetious. And you quoted me out of context such that you can pretend like I have said something I have not. Again, you attacked me for saying: "And with all the silly alternative energy and social engineering, we are continuing it generate more CO2 each year." And again, you can attack me, and call me a fool, you can claim that I am a shill for the oil industry, you can call me a troll, and you can get my posts deleted, but what you can't do is show that the statement I made is false. -
The bottle will only hold about 2 ft^3/cubic feet of uncompressed gas, you can compress 300 ft^3 of gas into the bottle. I think this is what you mean, correct? I don't think the gage on a typical MIG flow-meter/regulator even goes to 300 bar, but I could be wrong. I do not what you mean by 1 bar volume. As I understand, bar is a unit of pressure, not volume. I do not know, but I know the standard "full sized" bottles (what I think is the 6Q) in Thailand are about the same size as the standard bottles in the US, and that that those are ~9" in diameter and are ~60" tall for a ballpark volume of about 2 ft^3. The white coating on the billet is lubricant, and that is the project I worked on. Most of the process in not impressive, but the video just does not do justice to the moment the aluminum starts exiting the dies, it was amazing.

I do not understand what is meant by the bolded test above. The 300 ft^3 is the volume of compressed gas the bottle will hold, not the volume of the bottle. I think a 300 ft^3 argon bottle only has an actual volume of something less than 2 ft^2. Incidentally, I worked on a project that involved die lubrication for back-extruding aluminum bottles for scuba tanks and whatnot. The project was not very interesting, but watching the actual back-extrusion portion of the process was amazing.

If they instead described themselves as climatologists or climate scientists, you would think differently? -

Continue? I posted that a week ago, and here you are baiting me. What was your major? In any event, I have not seen anything of substance from you. And because you are not able to actually formulate a coherent argument you attack me. Why the dishonesty? What "fringe scientists paid by the oil industry" have I sited? None. If you had been paying attention, you would know that I agree with that the Earth is warming, that the warming is a result rising CO2 levels, and that the CO2 levels are rising in large part to human activity. I have stated this clearly any number of times. You attacked me for saying: "And with all the silly alternative energy and social engineering, we are continuing it generate more CO2 each year." Now you can attack me, and call me a fool, you can claim that I am a shill for the oil industry, you can call me a troll, and you can get my posts deleted, but what you can't do is show that the statement I made is false. -
You'll likely run about 30 ft^3 per hour I think the 6Q is a 300 ft^3 bottle, so you'd get 10 about ten hours of trigger-down welding. In production, this might run from 2 days to a week (or more) depending on what you are doing. Tacking and fitting, a bottle will last a week, once it's fitted up and tacked together and you're just welding, two days. You should be able two lay about 2m of weld bead in an hour. A full charge is considered (I think) 150 bar. I think the big bottles weigh about 50kg empty, and they are unwieldy.

That's not bad. If you go with the small bottles get two. The small bottles are certainly easier to handle. Make sure you get the caps, they are almost always missing....

I enjoyed the Thai horror movie "Home for Rent". -
Does that include bottle deposit and delivery?
