Thermodynamics & Alien-vision -- How I Done It --

[DXX]

Prices of professional equipment have tumbled. Used in the offshore/shipping industry for thermographic surveys of electrical installations, find the hot spot before the fire starts!
Also used to find casualties in dense smoke and in man overboard situations.

You need to point it at the house from outside to see where you need more insulation.

here you go:

Adding more thermal vision to the thread!

Checking leisure battery install


Ctek 240v charger



AGM Leisure battery and ctek dc dc, running nice and cool


Checking thermal insulation and carpeted panel

Vs bare metal


That's with the van sat there all day so pretty reasonable difference I'd have thought

 

[Spaghetti]

I cracked out my FLIR the other day when I had the wood burner on. Guess where the flue runs!

 

[RedUn]

All as mad as each other then!

so comment below and lets see what we can get together. =]

Now winter is here, I'd love to see your van in the middle of the night when you've got heating on inside, to see where the obvious heat-loss is coming from. Naturally the pop top if it's up but I'm curious what the heat loss is like from the walls, windows, windscreen. Also the difference between external windsreen cover and none etc if you're up to it. Might be interesting too to see what's happening to underslung water tanks etc if they're in place (mine's internal). Finally what's the effect of exhaust from diesel heater. My heater exhaust points in the area where my grey water waste comes out which means that at night my waste bucket is heated by the Webasto exhaust which should prevent freezing on a very cold night
