I just wanted some of the experienced and experimentally astute to have a quick look at something I stumbled upon when looking for completely unrelated stuff ; The posts by "Obewan", before he was presumably banned. www.hearth.com/talk/threads/no-bricks-in-wood-stove.84728/Also, why does that forum have no section for RMH and their ilk? |

It looks to me like Obewan is a troll.
All he did was take an old steel box stove and add secondary air ports towards the top of the stove where the temperature is highest. No breakthrough there.
He would probably remove the insulation from around the heat riser of a rocket stove and claim it works better that way...

Obewan is just so wrong. In this area of New Zealand they make you replace your approved W. Burner after 15 years. This is to improve the emissions from the burners as the technology improves and because the earlier metal box burners, without refractory lining, burnt out at the places where the heat was greatest. Refractory good metal bad. Even high class refractory has to be replaced in furnaces and fireboxes from time to time.

Also, why does that forum have no section for RMH and their ilk? Hearth went through growing pains and didn't want to change much. It got so bad that a group split off and started another site. Actually, this is the best site for rockets. |
