So that makes a maximum heat leakage of 3160/24 = 132W However that would likely be on a temperture difference of (say) 70C versus a plausible difference of (say) 40C. Also the size for the cylinder might account for (say) 40% more than a
1050x450 cylinder.
I allowed 100W in the back of my mind when making the earlier posts. Seems I was probably a bit generous.
I don't think this is the case, IMHO. ISTM that Paul argues for his opinion [1] , when someone disagrees with him I have yet to see a reply along the lines of: .... You are an ignorant amateur. ...
IMHO it is not principally the initial content of IMM's posts that are especially objectionable. IMHO the problems are:
1) The suggestions are put forward in absolute terms, there is usually no hint that it is one approach from many, that has _some_ validity in _some_ situations.
2) When debate is encountered he tries to defend the initial matter in increasingly strident terms. If he offered either more coherent debate and/or 'cut some slack' for other posters opinions less antagonism would occur. Indeed he might gain support for _some_ of his suggestions as people would not find themselves having to support the indefensible.
3) When attempts at reasoned debate expire the posts descend to personal attacks on the other posters.
[1] Which in this matter I agree, but that is beside the point.
