[Stoves] A simple method to measure soot in huts

[nari phaltan]

Thanks Paul for your comments. The exact mechanism of reflection from soot
covered plate is not known though it is not difficult to develop since
enough is known about the reflection from absorbing-scattering media.
However I have not tried it and hope some smart stover can attempt it.

All the best.
