You can see in this link: ibb.co/iZwhLR, a rocket stove design. There is a downward pointing 'v', between two chimneys. The one closest to where you put wood draws the area of highest heat to the base of the 'v', where the pot is, and gas and smoke goes up the tall chimney. That circle, with a small dot in the center is the area of hottest fire, at the base of the v. And the small chimey should stay at a diagonal, and not like the picture going vertical at any point.

I posted that drawing, but wouldn't that design where there's an angled short and very wide chimney (redirecting chimney) at the 90 degree turn in an L shaped rocket stove at the "v" where the 90 degree turn is. Wouldn't that be the best design for any rocket stove, since it creates a circular rolling motion, or spherical ball of fire at the base of burn chamber in a L shaped stove which is also of course at the base of the tall chimney. The redirecting chimney needs to be rather short and very wide to create the ball of fire at the base of the "v" where the tips of the sticks burn, so the height above the stack of the "v" and the burn chamber needs to be higher than in a standard L shaped rocket stove. I would say a spherical ball is better than the ram horn shape. I could also imagine having the ball of fire twisting also if given a vortex to it.
