[Stoves] Airflow For Biomass Fired Appliances- Natural Draft Stoves

[Lanny Henson]

A response from Alex English! made my day.
Fan powered TLUDS have a nice short flame height, are they not clean burning?

  Lanny,
  I understand the comment below but I think flame height can be shortened with excessive excess air. The lowest emissions CO/CO2 and highest temperatures, at some power levels, in appliances that I have tested has often been when there is a significantly taller tail of flame. 

  However, don't believe  all tall tails :)

  The combustion air needs to be focused on the combustion zone in a way that shortens the flame height. More like the way a TLUD with a fan works.
