Hi folks,
i just finished my RMH.
First: Thanks to every single one of you, providing all the knowledge on this board is just awesome!
The stats:
Burn chamber made similar like mats cast core. Crazy high insulation! Highly recommended! (Thanks for the conception!)
Flue is built out of half barrels, ISA about 5m2 (without floor) and a volume about 700liters, divided in two "chambers".
Mass weighs about 4 tons (loam, rocks and urbanite), most of it is hidden below floor-level.
Until now: surface temp on average 35°C, i never burned it for more than 2 hours at a time, the cabin (~40qm) heats up quite fast.
Because of the huge mass the stove has nice delay in heat transfer. Staying warm & cozy for over 24 hours.
Bonus: Heated floor under the desk!
The chimney is 3 meter high, slightly insulated with perlite/clay (~1cm). Exit-temperature until now below 50°C, on average 35-40°C.
Barrel top temp reaches up to 500°C, most of the time +/- 350°C. Top gap 10cm.
Final conclusion after winter, loving the RMH already.
Lovely greetings
