[Stoves] Designation of TLUD gasifier devices.

[Julien Winter]

Hi all;

The distinction between TLUD and BLUD does matter, although there are many
similarities, and we can learn much from both.  The reason why there are so
many scientific articles with "forced draft TLUDs" is because the
researchers were trying to understand moving grate gasifiers, and they are
lit at the top, and fed air from below.  Laboratory models try to mimic the
real world.  With natural draft systems, gravity is fundamentally important.

Be careful to avoid, *ad hominem* attacks: "Only insecure minds get
entangled with terminology."

Cheers,
Julien
