dish bottom vessel question
My kettles are jacketed steam kettles. They are round, but have dish/round bottoms, not flat. How would I go about adding these pieces of equipment? I understand the heat loss process, and I know the volume of each, but the equipment inner-face calculates the volume based on entered information. Does anybody have a suggestion or a fix for this?

Re: dish bottom vessel question
After adding the dimensions, adjust the volume to your real volume and BTP will adjust the height; while it might not 'technically' be correct, it will be your average height, and I'll bet that the rest of the information isn't going to matter anyway -- even heat capacity and transfer coefficient since you're speaking about a kettle rather than a tun. I think it should work just fine like that.ThomasHart wrote:My kettles are jacketed steam kettles. They are round, but have dish/round bottoms, not flat.

I don't have any calibration done, but the type of equipment I think should come with the software in a default database would be your most common equipment types. You would include 5, 7.5, 10, and 15 gallon pots as well as 15.5 gallon keggle. The most common sized mash tuns would also make sense. 5 gallon, 48 quart, and maybe one larger. The one I have is a 16.5 gallon cube cooler, but I don't think that is as common. Heat sources could be Standard Propane burner, electric stove, and gas stove. I think that would be a good start, the user still has the ability to customize and calibrate their equipment, but including the most common styles would be a good idea.
