Dear Frank I am not forgetting your unanswered question about the actual temperature of your little pipe if the emissivity is different. Just trying to get time to be sure I give you the right answer.
Regards Crispin +++++++ Stovers, I was talking to a rice grower in Northern Calif. and found out that Wild Rice has much less silica in the hulls than White Rice. I haven't tested wild rice hulls to confirm.

Regards Crispin +++++++ I do not know whether a stove can efficiently burn rice husk. But it seems rice husk can be burnt efficiently in FBC ( fluidised bed combustion ) boilers. There are several medium sized FBC boilers operated all over India. So the fuel need not go waste.
