Dear Rajiv Gupta,
I am one of your gasifier user. According to my experience, when I load
the Charcoal bed too high (obove the Nozle) or when I forget to rotate
the combrotor to remove the charcoal, the charcoal will ignited infront
the nozles and the nozles are burned (disappeared) in 5-10 minute.
I wonder if the Nozle can stay for how long when you burn coal?
Regards,
Darius
