may have been mistaken. I think what happened was that the ambient room
temperature changed the measurement you were attempting to make. At the
higher ambient temperature there was less rate of heat loss from the cooking
pot, so it took less fuel to keep it hot and the turndown ratio – as you
define it – changed. So the problem may lie with your definition of the
turndown ratio. I use the minimal sustainable firepower, determined from
the rate of fuel feed which just keeps the fire going, as my lower measure,
and the maximum firepower I can achieve without significant oxygen starvation
as the upper one, and have yet to see the sort of effect of ambient
temperature on the ratio of the upper to the lower that you report with your
definition of the ratio.<o:p></o:p></SPAN></P>

lang=EN-CA>“Why was the good advice, by established experts in the field,
represented in the VITA International Standard test, the result of several
well funded international conferences, obscure in 2003? Both the Indian and
Chinese governments developed tests of their own widening the scope of PHU
to include power, rate of evaporation, time. Visser (2003) published a
version of a water boiling test based on efficiency and appropriate power
for boiling and simmering. What motivated this parallel activity? Why isn’t
the VITA test in more general use?”<o:p></o:p></SPAN></I></P>

<P class=MsoNormal><SPAN
style="FONT-FAMILY: 'Calibri','sans-serif'; COLOR: #1f497d; FONT-SIZE: 11pt"
lang=EN-CA>One reason the VITA test was not more popular was it had several
conceptual errors and a few really poor metrics that gave mis-directing
outputs. One is the efficiency of simmering, another is the concept of
specific fuel consumption for simmering. Another was the idea of an
‘average efficiency’ meaning an ‘average thermal efficiency’. I believe from
my research that the specific fuel consumption for simmering and the average
efficiency were both introduced by Baldwin in 1986 or so, before his book
came out. Neither are acceptable metrics.<o:p></o:p></SPAN></P>

style="FONT-FAMILY: 'Calibri','sans-serif'; COLOR: #1f497d; FONT-SIZE: 11pt"
lang=EN-CA>The document refers to the VITA test the ‘international standard’
which is not supported by the evidence. Three or four minor parties agreed
to it and it was never used by the major markets in India and China. Even
Eindhoven University didn’t use it and they were a party to drafting it.
India pretty much adopted the minority position taken by KK Prasad from
Eindhoven and built that into their 1991 test. The Chinese test from that
era was very similar. India, interestingly, produced a list of 28 standard
sizes of cooking pot which is a record, I believe!<o:p></o:p></SPAN></P>

lang=EN-CA>The long-forgotten organisation Bois de Feu had a clear
understanding of these issues and had a test method in 1982 that didn’t have
these problems. They treated the simmering phase very carefully (and
differently). Prasad (and Visser who was his student) developed multiple
test methods over the years. Piet Visser and I created one in Malawi in
about 2007 which later evolved into the ProBEC Test for heat transfer
efficiency which is now a SeTAR SOP, currently v1.05 (SeTAR is an
independently managed continuation of the 13 year long GIZ/ProBEC project).
It doesn’t really predict performance, it gives a real-time heat transfer
efficiency report under varying conditions. It is very easy to perform and
it supports pot-swapping, similar to the Indian
protocol.<o:p></o:p></SPAN></P>
