[f-AA] Ohio Water's Boiling point 190 F

[Kyle]

Rich, good grief. I just Googled that up. You are right. Sad part is, Grandma was wrong. "Add a pinch of salt, and it will boil faster" Hmmm, gonna have to re-do my bachelor cook book. Maybe Grandma meant that it gave a dummy like me something to do, while watching the water heat up. One of those "Time compression" activities?? :) Kyle

  Close, but I am pretty sure that a little salt in the water would make it boil at a HIGHER temp ,not a lower one.

    Mike, I am showing my geographical ignorance, here, no doubt...But what about your elevation, and barometric pressure? If you are at 3-4000 feet, and in a low pressure system, you might see numbers in the 190's for boiling. A little salt in the water, would do the same thing. I don't know about Iron. Here's a link I found, with a simple calculator for boiling points at altitude. Good luck! Kyle

      hmmmm...isn't it Ohio where the rivers catch fire? Might be a significantly lower flash point ;^) Don't drink that stuff Mike.

        My two oil temp gauges show that Ohio Water with alot of iron seems to boil at 190 deg F, If I buy a new one can I get closer to the real # or do I need to go far north or south?

        Both gauges that I have start at 100 F, all I find with Google is 100 or I could go 0 deg C any thoughs or is 190 close enough??

        Mikek having to but two of everything since I got two champs one flying the other a project.
