[Stoves] Studies of pressure variations in a TLUD - Pulsing Flame with Concentrator Rings

[Julien Winter]

Dear Crispin;

Thanks for your suggestions.  I will give them a shot in the near future.
It would be very useful to have an explanation for the pulsing in small
diameter concentrators.

In the meantime, I have an experiment to complete, and I will post the
results shortly.  When I do, everyone will have a much better idea of the
context of my work.

Briefly, I think it is important to have a better understanding of
concentrator ring ND-TLUDs because they are simple to build, and in many
situations, that may be the type of stove local people prefer to build.
Because of their relevance, concentrator ring ND-TLUDs can be a useful
benchmark against which to compare other types of natural draft TLUDs in
research experiments.

However, at the same time, I am trying to improve the low-power performance
of 'internal riser' or counter current burners.  These burners are also
simple to build, yet may be cleaner and more efficient than concentrator
ring TLUDs.

Stay tuned;  I have more to come on this subject of "Studies of pressure
variations in a TLUD"

Cheers,
Julien.
