There seem to be many commercially available downdraft gasifier wood boilers on the market, and at least one that is natural draft. Wondering if anyone knows of any work done with a rocket type batch heater in a down draft configuration similar to the aforementioned wood gasification boilers? Any thoughts? I would think one would need a bypass for cold starting but once things were burning well, with good draft, it should draw....Comments welcome.

There is a video on youtube somewhere of a batchbox setup running as a downdrafter. I can't seem to find it now. It shows it switching from the rear port to down through a gap below the V-sides and back a few times. Seemed to work fine.
