Thanks Paul,

I couldn’t see very well how the chimney was connected to the TLUD in the video link.  Any pictures to clarify?

Wouldn’t smoke come out around the skirt?

Huck,

There are views in many places showing TLUD heat sources in cookstove-bodies with chimneys.   

One is       https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SaeanoWZE7E     (It is a Quick Pick item at the   www.drtlud.com       VIT08001  )   That is a 2008 item.   

Another is of the Servals Champion stove with a mud/clay stove with two pots.

And the TLUD natural draft stove that won the first-ever Cat Pee low emissions award, in 2005, and started the model name of "Champion" was with a chimney.  

Remember to keep the concepts and devices for heat making (such as TLUD) sufficiently separate from the concepts and devices of heat capture (as in sunken pot and chimney and plancha, which are stove structure items.).    Heat making and heat capture can be closely related in many stove designs, but try to see them as aspects that can be refined separately from each other.

Paul, Dean & List,

 

Thanks.

 

I was especially interested in the sunken pot rocket stove because it incorporates a chimney.  It looks a lot like some of the ways we are trying to incorporate a chimney with the Champion or other TLUDs for our project in Cameroon.  From my viewpoint a chimney is essential to a wood burning stove, even when it is “super clean”. In California hoods are required for natural gas stoves.

 

Are the details of these stoves something that Aprovecho wants to keep private?

 

I’m frustrated with the fairly common description as “super clean”.  It seems like every manufacturer says that about their stoves.  It would be nice to have some more exact measurement (and I guess there is a lot of debate about what the measures should be).

 

Anything about costs?

 

Huck
