[Stoves] heating stove test data

Hi all

It's been a bit quiet here so here's something slightly off topic.


A while back Crispin pointed me to a stove test challenge pdf done by
Brookhaven National Laboratory, this report doesn't relate closely to
cook stoves  but on an initial skim through there are some interesting
results.

The report is now published, it is lengthy:

The results should be more in keeping with  actual use in a dwelling
heated by wood as they reflect start up as well as hot running
conditions.

These stoves are automated to some extent so conditions in the
combustion chamber are far better than even the best tended cook stove
could be.
