[Stoves] Modified traditional Mongolian stove - pictures

[Crispin Pemberton-Pigott]

Dear Friends

 

Due to my poor Mongolian verb conjugation skills I have had to tune the name
of the stove and settle on Shatalt. It is the name as well as a reference to
the lighting method. Shatlakh is a verb meaning to build a 2 x 2 log stack
the way Boy Scouts do when they have big meets round the fire.

 

The direct link to the modified traditional stove is therefore changed to:

I have added a high resolution .AVI file showing the flames and smoke being
drafted into the pipe at the back - 12 MB - so you can see what it looks
like burning. It is difficult to film something taking place inside a closed
box so the draft is affected by the extra air flow, but is it indicative of
what happens. 

 

The direct link to the video is

<http://www.newdawnengineering.com/library/stoves/shatalt/61%20Flames%20and%
20smoke.AVI>  

 

It is actually a video of an earlier stove that was not as good as the final
pipe-in-the-centre model in terms of lighting and early fire spread but the
burn is so clear I am sharing it anyway. Do as I say, not as this is!

 

Regards

Crispin
