[Stoves] Updates for Models 1 and 4 f0r KG and TJ

[Crispin Pemberton-Pigott]

Dear Friends

 

http://www.newdawnengineering.com/website/library/Stoves/Kyrgyzstan/KG%20Mod
el%204/

 

There are a new set of drawings in the folders for Models 1 and 4 for
Tajikistan and Kyrgyzstan, for those who have downloaded them before. Please
note the standardisation of the air controller. The current Model 4 version
turns out to be cheap, easy to make and long lasting with a high degree of
control. 

 

Model 1 - Dung and Wood; turn the grate around, it burns coal - light it
from the chimney end to make an end-lit crossdraft fire (ELCD).

Model 4 is a coal stove for anything smaller than 30mm including duff coal.
Altanzul at CAU tried to burn 40mm in it last week and it has too much
excess air for my liking. It is a problem of too small a surface to volume
ratio. She also reports she made three burns with different sizes of fuel.
No details yet.

 

There is a smallish (23 MB) video of the Model 1 burning dung at high power
with a Model 4 just beside it. Both chimney exhausts are visible. 

 

Folder contents for Models 2 and 3 will be getting updates in a few days.

 

Regards

Crispin
