[Stoves] Invisible Flames TLUD

[Anderson, Paul]

Aaron,

Interesting, but not sufficient information.

Only one small partial view of the stove.   And not sure at what state of the batch are the photos of the burning.   The tall stack (2 ft and then 4 ft, right?)   Fantastic for draft, but bad for having a lady to do cooking.   And much loss of heat, so expect efficiency to be somewhat low(er) then desired.

Winter stove meeting (TLUD Summit) start next Tuesday in Oregon.  You are welcome, but seems unlikely you can attend.   And the stove does not say to me “I must be at the January 2019 event.”\

Maybe think of summer 2019?

I have almost zero spare time for email the next 9 days.     Sorry to be so brief.

Natural Draft Stove burning Wood Pellets

There’s not a lot of blue flame here, but the flame is very hard to see during the day time with a total stove height of 2’.

Here is the same stove with an added 2’ of chimney so I could video the flames.

Nightime view.  The yellow only shows in the video.  Otherwise there is a lot more violet or transparent orange flame that my camera cannot capture.

Here’s more proof that lots of flame cannot be seen with my IPhone Camera.

I’m hoping this stove has very low NOx emissions because of the reburning of the exhaust gases.

I’m hoping that the separate burn chambers will reduce particle emissions by a whole lot.  I rarely see a spark, but idk if that’s related.

Would it be worth taking to the Arevecho Winter Stove Camp?
