LPG = Liquid Propane Gas  ...  now that SOUNDS like  it is  an oxymoron.

Just grinning over my morning coffee ..

Our "big"  LP corn dryers  tap into the  LP,  in its  liquid  state   from 
the bottom of the 1,000 gallon tank.   The smaller corn dryers  that we 
used 40 years ago:  those little 3,000 bushel "government bin" size corn 
dryers  tapped in to the upper "vapor" side.     The reason for taking the 
LIQUID  LP all the way to the burner , is to assure that  it is never 
starved for fuel.  I  never thought much about it before, but there "must" 
be some sort of  carburetor just  prior to the ignition spot on  the corn 
dryer burner .
