Default Guestion about Pots

All of the pots I see are (basically) cylinders open on one end.

I was thinking, why don't they make "caps" for the top?

Something like a funnel, that makes the opening at the top a bit smaller.

I realize that too small would impede on the heat escaping, there must be a point where the heat escape is not hindered and the coolant loss still would be lowered. ( I also assume that is why people insulate their pots too...well that and to avoid getting hurt between freezing or heating it up to remove it???)


LOL

At what point does heat exhaust exceed coolant loss, and do you guys have little "lids you place over your pots between runs?" or... is your cooling medium so free flowing is does not matter?

Or am I over thinking this?

(Sorry trying to prepare for making the plunge to real clocks )


Edit: If not a single funnel up.. why not one up and and one down, to allow exchange...


EDIT: Ohh or if evaporation was not enough... you could actually stimulate with a smaller intake and a fan to make the dual tipped single exhaust super flow... (perijet design.. lol not taking credit for that)
