[Stoves] A doctoral thesis on stoves

[Crispin Pemberton-Pigott]

Very good paper with some novel adaptions of the test methods, approaches to
the community and the retrofitted device.

 

The money photo is this one:

 



 

The pot rests are far too tall and create several simultaneous problems for
effective heat transfer. The addition of turbulators
<http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Turbulator>  is one way to address some of
this error.

 

Given the reported power level the pot rests should be about 12-15m high and
that would reduce the initial problem. It would be interesting to see a
stove built with both changes.

 

Regards

Crispin
